set steady pace, joined from over 2f out, shaken up and quickened 2f out, ridden out final furlong
dwelt, keen in touch, ridden 2f out, kept on towards finish
This may be a small field but it looks competitive with four out of the five runners in with a chance but the strongest claims seem to belong to hat-trick seeking TEASING with Electric Warrior and Bobski looking the main threats. The selection is on top form at the moment and steps down in class after defying a penalty last time out to score over a furlong longer than this trip. He is yet to win over a mile but any fears the trip is on the sharp side are quashed with winning form over seven furlongs and with the line from the penultimate outing looking rock solid the signs are good for win number three in a row. Electric Warrior has been very consistent with recent victories coming in similar races. The form from those efforts is not that strong to support a selection but he will be a major player. Bobski is a typical sort of runner for this class, bits and pieces of form suggest a chance but inconsistency has been a problem. The same can be said for Landucci while the only other in the race, Jord, has done nothing for a while now so Teasing can and should score.
