RACE SUMMARY

An ultra-competitive sprint which can go the way of BERNARD SPIERPOINT, who found life much tougher back in handicap company last time but claimer-ridden for the first time under the tutelage of Darryll Holland, he’s fancied to add another victory to an already impressive 2023 campaign. Lilkian, Gherkin and Apache Star are just a handful of others worth considering.

RACE STATS

LEADING COURSE TRAINER (17-22): A Wintle (24 wins from 104 runners, 23%) runs AVIARY TRAINER-IN-FORM (LAST 14 DAYS): R Hannon (10 wins from 61 runners, 16%) runs ELLADE LONGEST TRAVELLER: DUBAI DREAMER trained by R Varian, Newmarket, 155 miles.

RACE SUMMARY

DUBAI DREAMER appeals as the type to improve now handicapping and Roger Varian’s colt is fancied to make a successful switch into this company. Ellade found herself bogged down in the heavy ground at Chepstow last time but had been in good heart prior, whilst Loddon is less exposed than most here and also makes the shortlist.
