Race Description A nursery is a handicap that is restricted to two-year-olds only. In order to be allowed to take part, entrants must have already run in three maiden or novice races, or have won two races, which then qualifies them for an official handicap rating based on what they have achieved so far Quite simply, the higher their rating, the bigger the weight they have to carry. This particular six furlongs race is for horses which have been rated from 0 to 75.

2022: NO CORRESPONDING RACE LAST YEAR

GAME BREAKER: Following its run on 7/7/2023 it was reported that the horse was slow to leave the stalls.

Probable S.P’s: 10-3 Chat Up Line (GB), 9-2 Ninety Nine (IRE), 11-2 Game Breaker (IRE), 13-2 Doubletalk (IRE), 7-1 Indication Call (IRE), 12-1 Woodleigh (IRE), 16-1 Louella (IRE), 25-1 Come On Irene (IRE), Dandy Fitz (IRE)

CHAT UP LINE got off the mark in similar conditions at Nottingham last time and makes fair appeal in her follow-up bid. Doubletalk and Ninety Nine can also make their presence felt.
