Verdict

Captain Lars is clearly well suited by this track, and shouldn't be hastily dismissed just because it was a claimer in which he scored latest, whilst Aleef is well treated for David O'Meara if the first time tongue tie proves the solution to his current struggles. However, the standout piece of form in the contest came at Kempton last month, with BORN TO FINISH beating Nezar by 1¼L (Cappananty Con fourth, Danecase tenth). Jamie Osborne's four-year-old probably got off lightly with just a 3lb rise, and with Jameerah amongst those likely to race prominently tonight, this race will once more be set up for a strong finisher, with Born To Finish and Nezar again expected to fill the first two places.
  1. Born To Finish
  2. Nezar
  3. Captain Lars
