awkwardly away always in rear, never on terms
close up, pushed along over 1f out, ridden and ran on to lead final strides
led early, tracked leader until halfway, tracked leaders, ridden over 1f out, weakened inside final furlong
keen tracked leaders, went 2nd halfway, ridden to lead inside final furlong, headed final strides
keen soon led, ridden and headed inside final furlong, stayed on one pace
in touch, ridden over 1f out, kept on inside final furlong, not trouble leaders
Much better was expected from Gorgeous Noora over track and trip last time but there’s no stopping Dizzy G at present. She landed a hat-trick with an impressive win at Carlisle last week though faces a much more difficult task in this company carrying 6lb extra. Restless Rose is weighted to reverse earlier running with Dizzy G but POET’S VANITY (NAP) ran well in a conditions race at Haydock last time and dropping down in class today with Ryan Moore on board, she gets the nod. Lady Dancealot has yet to win a handicap but is still preferred to Diamond Lad.
