Verdict

Petite Ganache was running on when making his chasing bow over 2m5f at Carlisle. He looks as though he has plenty more to offer with the return to 3m certain to suit but he has to give 25lb to THE BOOLA BEE, who was a very easy winner of a conditionals’ race at Warwick last Saturday and escapes a penalty with Tom Buckley taking off a further 7lb. The lack of a recent run could be a probably for Dun Faw Good and Buffalo Ballet is even more of a veteran. Katalystic almost certainly needs softer going.
