ANALYSIS: The same
grade of race as the previous handicap, and much the same comments
apply. The winning time was again above the Racing Post standard.
SENESCHAL'S three previous wins had all been over 7f, and
there was a slight question mark about his effectiveness over this
trip on this undulating track. However, he was held together well -
connections reported afterwards that he needs to be kidded along and
kept sweet - and he was always travelling comfortably. This was his
first win on turf since October 2004, and he also has fair form on
the all-weather.
Pelham Crescent travelled up with the pace throughout, and
this was his best run of the season.
Although a course and distance winner, Wind Chime just
possibly needs 1m2f - and maybe evena bit more - these days. He ran
like it, too, but it was a great effort given that he was one of
just a few returning for the first time this term and is now ten.
Another returner, Chapter, led 2f out but could not keep up
the gallop.
Convince had been beaten just over a length at Warwick last
time, when today's jockey had put up 2lb overweight but the duo were
beaten fair and square this time.
The prime worry for Trevian backers was his lack of a recent
run, otherwise he looked to have place prospects at the very least.
It was probably his lack of edge that cost him, and he'll presumably
strip fitter next time. His rider reported that the gelding hung
right from half way.
Casablanca Minx is pretty consistent but she might need
dropping into claiming company again to have a better winning
opportunity.
This looked a more suitable trip for Mouseen but his chance
was spoilt by an extremely tardy start. His rider reported that the
gelding reared as the stalls opened.
A Kirby, the rider of Going Skint, reported that the gelding
became unbalanced.
R Havlin, the rider of Goose Chase, reported that the gelding
hung badly left throughout.
