towards rear when hampered on rail 5f out, behind after
Levantine, Denise Best, Catch The Fox and Enna look the principals in another poor race and the confident vote goes to Levantine. The selection finished in mid-division behind Our Destiny last time out, this looks easier and with conditions in his favour he is taken to regain the winning thread. Denise Best rates the main danger as she was a fair fifth in a better race behind McQueen last time out and is sure to be suited by the drop in trip so will not be far away. Catch The Fox is another worthy of respect as he was in front of Denise Best in the same race last time out but he was only staying on so the drop in trip looks against him and for that reason he is opposed. Enna is another that could go well on his latest fourth behind Heathyards Pride but he is another that is not sure to be suited by the drop in trip. Of the remainder Desert Fury is from a shrewd yard and is worth noting in the market but for the winner we return to Levantine.
