Verdict

A competitive 7f Class 2 Nursery Handicap which features a couple of horses returning from unsuccessful forays into Listed and Group company. Nobleman's Nest is one of those horses, but he needs to prove his stamina over this trip on handicap debut after being outclassed in the Gimcrack at York. Richard Fahey took this race in 2016 with Andok, and saddles three runners, with Sandown winner Crownthorpe the pick despite a 9lb rise in the weights. However, a sporting chance is taken on fellow Sandown (maiden) winner RUM RUNNER. The Richard Hannon trained colt has progressed with each outing, and despite this race representing a step up in class (nursery debut), he's seemingly certain to handle conditions well and could prove strong enough from an opening mark of 84.
  1. Rum Runner
  2. Crownthorpe
  3. Nobleman's Nest
