Verdict

A stellar £85,000 (total prize fund) 1m4f handicap which would be worthy of the feature race on any card, but for the £100,000 Burradon Conditions Stakes. To Be Wild appears to have a massive future ahead, and this unexposed Hugo Palmer trained Yorkshire Cup Stakes entrant is two from two since teaming up with Josephine Gordon, and looks certain to go close on his seasonal return. However, preference is for the Marco Botti trained WILD HACKED who ran a mighty race earlier this month when beating all bar the handicap blot that was Big Country in Kempton's Rosebery Handicap, and with Frankie booked he's taken to strike whilst the iron is hot.
  1. Wild Hacked
  2. To Be Wild
  3. Fabricate
