PHILIP WOO’S FORMLINE

Glittering Legend comes off a nice third from midfield over the Valley 1,800m and was a neck second to Sky Vino after a box-seat run at his only dirt 1,650m start. He has winning claims despite a tricky gate. Talents Ambition just missed by a short head to Loch Tay two runs ago for a third minor placing over this favourite dirt 1,650m before producing a flat ninth last month. He merits another chance. Sword Point is zero-from-10 this term but was once a troubled fourth from two goes over his favourite dirt 1,650m and is now rated 18 and 27 points below two C&D wins last season. He should map nicely from gate two. Nezha has followed a rallying win when trying the dirt 1,650m in Class Four in March with a closing fifth and seventh from two all-weather runs in Class Three. He is a place chance.

TROUBLE IN RUNNING

TALENTS AMBITION (J136) approaching the 400M and again shortly afterwards was bumped - Race 672.

VICTORY SKY (J540) after the 500M was steadied - Race 782.

KAHOLO ANGEL (H216) jumped only fairly - Race 763.

LO RIDER (K161) jumped only fairly. Rider stated that the horse raced too keenly throughout the event and as a result did not run on in the Home Straight. Post-race vet inspection did not show any significant findings. Finished tailed out and performance was considered unacceptable. Has since performed to the satisfaction of the Stewards in a barrier trial and passed an official vet exam - Race 720.

GLITTERING LEGEND (L109) between the 350M and the 250M was held up for clear running - Race 771.

MUST GO (J133) raced wide and without cover for the majority of the event - Race 782.

NEZHA (K494) near the 300M became awkwardly placed on heels when endeavouring to improve to the inside of a runner - Race 672.

ALL ROUND WINNER (K382) shifted out shortly after the start and was bumped. Rider stated that whilst the intention was to settle in a more forward position he was obliged to continue forward in the early stages to race outside the lead to avoid covering additional ground which resulted in his mount being left without a finishing effort in the Home Straight. Post-race vet inspection did not show any significant findings - Race 753.

TURIN MASCOT (H165) near the 1500M was crowded - Race 672.

KING DANCE (K157) bumped on jumping. Rider stated that he was obliged to make use of his mount throughout the event to hold his position towards the rear of the field. He added that in the Home Straight his mount did not respond to his riding. Trainer stated that with the early stages of the event being run slightly inside of standard time the horse was not given the opportunity to travel. He said in addition the horse found it difficult to run on in the Home Straight after settling back, particularly with the horse being up in Class 3 company. Post-race vet inspection did not show any significant findings. Performance as a last start winner was considered disappointing. Has since performed to the satisfaction of the Stewards in a barrier trial and passed an official vet exam - Race 738.

DRAGON AIR FORCE (J279) passing the 1100M got its head up when being crossed by a runner. Near the 900M was hampered when taken wider. Hung out when placed under pressure in the Home Straight. Raced wide and without cover for the majority of the event - Race 784.
