Verdict

Division 2 of the Class 6 Handicap can go the way of the Ruth Carr trained FAINTLY. The gelding is unbeaten at this track over 7F, and there's no reason to suggest that this longer trip will prove beyond him. He is on a competitive mark, and his trainer has saddled a few winners here since late March, and there can be no denying that racing against inferior rivals (Class 6 company) brings out the very best in him.
  1. Faintly
