Verdict

Gradually stepping up in trip TIMOSHENKO has the look of a typical improver from this yard who has been well placed avoiding any big increases in his handicap mark with the cheekpieces added last time (retained here) bring about some more improvement. Ochos Rios isn’t an easy ride but he appears genuine enough although he does give himself plenty to do with some slow starts. Aristocracy will be of interest if he’s ready to roll after a 10 month absence while Bumble Bay and Clearance have chances on their recent form of hitting the frame again.
  1. Timoshenko
  2. Ochos Rios
  3. Bumble Bay
