Verdict

A divided 3yo handicap. The Irish raider Blackstone Cliff could prove to be well suited by a stiff uphill finish over a mile, so warrants a cautionary market check. However, the pair to concentrate upon are the reliable Fitzy and the steadily improving BRUTALAB. The selection finished just under 3L behind the David Brown-trained gelding at Wetherby but backed up that handicap debut with another solid showing at Carlisle (1m3f), and it's a slight surprise that the handicapper hasn't nudged him up the weights by a pound or two since.
  1. Brutalab
  2. Fitzy
