Connections of Madame Fenella have had to be patient but there is the strong promise of improvement to come off what does not look to be an onerous task under the circumstances but MARWARI wasn’t far away here in January and as he’s now 12lb lower in the handicap, he’s worth another look following a solid recent effort at Hamilton. Coast has yet to win on home sand for the Southwell Racing Club but he’s given his owners a decent away day at Wolverhampton. Mutasallem won a sprint at the latter track for Marcus Tregoning though subsequent racecourse appearances have been sporadic to say the least.
