Verdict

The four-timer seeking LION HEARTED absolutely toyed with his rivals over 7f here on Friday, and stepping up in trip (should suit) rates as frankly impossible to oppose. Clearly miles ahead of the handicapper, he competes without a penalty for that 6L win and holds further possible engagements this week at Chelmsford (Wednesday, Thursday and Friday). For those seeking a solid each-way alternative, look no further than Elixsoft.
  1. Lion Hearted
  2. Elixsoft
  3. King Oswald
