Traveller, Glendun and Spiritual Star are usually thereabouts without winning and Chetan’s win streak was brought to an end off today’s mark at Chelmsford last time. Lucymai’s earlier success came over 7f while Tigerwolf and Archie continue to slip down the weights without yet taking advantage. Cape To Cuba has every chance now handicapping for the first time having gone close in a maiden race here but CLOCK CHIMES (NAP) is even less exposed and the Southwell winner gets the nod having been placed at Newcastle on his recent handicap debut.
