Race Description

This contest is a Novice Stakes, run over a distance of one mile. There are a variety of reasons why the three-year-olds in this race are still light on experience. Stoutly bred horses are unlikely to be seen at their best over the shorter distances of their juvenile season whilst a setback or injury can curtail even the most precociously bred horse’s two-year-old career.

PLAY SMARTER This could rest between the penalised winners, with WOTEVER NEXT taken to improve past War of Words and remain unbeaten. She did well to get up late at Catterick and looks sure to improve for this longer trip. Moonlight Frolic is another to note after a promising debut at Kempton at the end of last year.
