started slowly, always behind
slowly into stride, last pair, pushed along and struggling over 3f out, never involved
mid-division on outside, pushed along halfway, reminders over 3f out, headway on inside chasing leaders over 2f out, went 2nd inside final 2f, stayed on under pressure inside final furlong, led final strides
raced keenly, chased leaders, ridden and not quicken inside final 2f, edged right and weakened inside final furlong
led 1f, settled in 3rd place on inside, switched left over 2f out, ridden and one pace over 1f out, no chance with leading duo
towards rear, reached mid-division but off the pace over 3f out, one pace and no impression final 2f
tracked leader, led over 2f out, ridden and sent for home inside final 2f, reduced lead final furlong, caught last strides
raced keenly, led after 1f, headed over 2f out, soon ridden, weakened quickly well over 1f out
Flight Of Fantasy made a promising start when runner-up over track and trip in December and Bois De Boulogne was placed on his earlier debut only to disappoint when upped in class at Chelmsford last time. But this looks a good opportunity for ENVISAGING to get off the mark. He found only one too good in a handicap at Lingfield last month and James Fanshawe’s colt gets the vote back at this level. Invincible Man and Everdina may well improve but need to if they are to figure.
