In depth

Verdict

A very poor race may go the way of Peace Emblem, with Cornish Gold, Kilmovee and Amusement others that can play a part in proceedings. This race is best given a brief summary with nothing at all standing out from a punting point of view, and we shall cut to the chase quickly by nominating Peace Emblem who may improve on her two previous efforts over the course and distance. Close up both times, behind Vizulize and Rolex Free respectively, it may not be too long before she opens her account for James Unett, especially if the blinkers are left on today. Cornish Gold has yet to set foot on this track, but a second at Chepstow last September gives her a glimmer of hope. She needs further really though and is passed over along with Kilmovee who did at least stay on from the back at Southwell last time with a first-time visor on. Amusement tried to make all here last time but faded two furlongs out and may do better over this shorter trip. However, we shall stick with Peace Emblem to very small stakes.
