Drakefell bids for a hat-trick carrying a penalty but today’s high draw looks more of a problem and Captain Lars may well reverse latest running on more favourable terms. Another Angel could also have been better drawn after scoring at Newcastle while YOU’RE COOL was forced to race wide over track and trip last time and paid the price when fading in the closing stages. But John Balding’s charge has a decent draw today and is taken to go close and confirm latest running with Bosham in the process. Dynamo Walt saves his best for this track with seven wins to date and is preferred to the returning Cowboy Soldier of the remainder.
