chased leader, pushed along 3f out, soon switched left, ridden to lead inside final furlong, kept on well
Obviously a poor turnout but at least two powerhouse yards are represented in a straight match. TRIBAL WISDOM has been runner-up in decent contests at Newmarket and Doncaster, the form of which reads better than the two third-place finishes of Sea Galaxy at Newmarket and Yarmouth. The latter was beaten nearly 15 lengths when third of five at the Norfolk venue last time and needs to improve considerably on that run against the Frankel gelding.
