WALEEFY has an outing over 6f under his belt but his best form last season came over this distance, including a narrow defeat in a tougher handicap at Newbury in August, and he can atone for that recent Goodwood loss. There looks to be more to come from Leicester maiden winner Dark Tornado, while Leadman can build on a pleasing Newcastle second, which came on his first appearance for the David O'Meara team. |
WALEEFY was disappointing on his comeback run when never getting into it back at 6f at Goodwood but much better is expected back over 7f and on a track that should suit much better. William Haggas's colt has gone off favourite for all of his nine runs and has delivered the goods just twice so many might abandon ship but he's well-weighted off 87 and can get his head in front again today. The rest of the field all have some sort of claims but strongest look to be Leadman, who has shown incredible consistency in his eight runs and there's a chance that with this return to turf he could find a tad more, and Physique, who scored on second career start and was just touched off here last time in two runs over course and distance. The latter isd marginally preferred as Pam Sly's gelding runs off a mark two pounds lower than when landing a big field 7f handicap at Galway last August |
