Verdict
A weak race for the grade and, having won at a higher level, Freight Train’s class may tell even though the drop in trip is far from certain to suit. A better option could be NEWMARKET WARRIOR as he wasn’t without promise as a two-year-old and remains lightly raced for his age, coming close to breaking his duck when going down by a short head in a better race than this at Pontefract on his return. Dolphin Rock bagged a hat-trick at the tail end of last season but his overall profile is of a horse in decline.
