Verdict
Majestic Timeline dispelled the notion that she's only a Polytrack performer when showing good speed before staying on stoutly to land a large-field Tipperary handicap at the end of June for which she is raised 3lb. MY GOOD BROTHER, a dual winner as a juvenile, was only a neck and half a length away in third, finishing strongly. The topweight was displaying his first form of note this term and may improve enough again to turn the tables. Atiya was a close-up fourth in the same contest and clearly relished the step down to the minimum trip. Another good run is likely but a career record of 0-12 does highlight concerns. Patrickswell was well beaten off by the aforementioned trio but has place claims on previous efforts.
