RACE STATS RACE SUMMARY
An open-looking contest with the vote in favour of DIVINE COMEDY. A low-mileage mare, she made it 2 wins from 4 starts last year when successful at Redcar in October (final start for Chris Wall) and it’s possible she can rate higher still this campaign. Daaris is less exposed than most and is a danger, along with Redcar scorer Lunar Jet Dundory is also worth keeping an eye on back on turf.

RACE STATS
LEADING COURSE TRAINER (17-22): A Balding (24 wins from 114 runners, 21%) runs ANOTHER RUN
TRAINER-IN-FORM (LAST 14 DAYS): R Beckett (4 wins from 14 runners, 29%) runs ROOST
LONGEST TRAVELLER: ROOST trained by R Beckett, Kimpton Down, 212 miles.
ANOTHER RUN likely struggled with the very testing conditions at Leicester on his return and he appeals as the type to make a better 3-y-o, so he’s preferred to Timewave, who arrives on the up. Moush should bounce back from a disappointing run and he’s also considered.
