RACE STATS RACE SUMMARY

There was plenty of encouragement to be taken from the way I GIORNI shaped in a first-time hood at Wincanton 15 days ago and, with further improvement on the cards now venturing into handicaps, she’s put forward as the selection. Crem Fresh is sure to be on the premises if backing up her comeback run, while Hazy Dream also merits consideration dropping back in trip

RACE SUMMARY

CHARLES ST evidently isn’t one for maximum faith but he’s been found a race seriously lacking in depth so his resolve may not be fully tested. He can get off the mark, likely at the chief expense of Jikala and Just Over Land

FAMILY POT arrives in the form of his life having won his last 2 starts here so is taken to complete the hat-trick. On The Platform was just under 2 lengths behind the selection over C&D on his penultimate start and is 3lb better off here, so is the obvious threat, while Arcade Attraction also needs considering after his good win at Fontwell
