Verdict

A very moderate 1m2f AW maiden in which the 'battle' for last place looks far more competitive than the one for first place. Wefait has to enter calculations on the strength of his trainer alone, and he has appeared visually to need further than 7F. Talented hurdler Hurricane Hollow in theory shouldn't be up to winning a maiden off ten stone, but the market holds the key to his chances in a very poor race, whilst Lopes Dancer has fair turf form over a mile from last spring. However, a chance is taken that CRAY is good enough to get off the mark now upped to 1m2f, after a reasonable return here over a mile (third) earlier this month.
  1. Cray
  2. Lopes Dancer
  3. Wefait
