William Carver is having only his fourth ride in public on TOOLATETODELEGATE but the 7lb claimer has already ridden a winner and double his tally on the top weight, best over this course and distance and only a pound higher than just beaten here last month. Something Lucky was second at Southwell last week on his first start for a new stable but has the worst of the draw. The lightly-raced Gorgeous has to go on the short-list having finished second over track and trip on her first start of the year with Your Gifted just preferred to Fikhaar of the others.
