Analyis of the race

A strong handicap won in taking fashion by RELATIVE STRENGTH, although this course debut winner benefited from being the most professional on his second start, running home straight and true as others hung away their good chances. He saw out this furlong longer trip well to open up more opportunities, travelling well with the strong pace to suggest a drop back would be no problem either. Connections have a 1m4f Chester handicap in mind.

Higgy’s Boy still has to win a race but his consistency is doing him no favours with the handicapper. He saw out this slightly longer trip well enough.

Greylami was the other one travelling as well as the winner at the top of the straight, but he was slightly short of room as he made his move. He then hung left before staying on when it was all over down the stands’ side. He has not quite lived up to the promise of his good maiden win here.

House Of Lords looked uneasy on the track and also hung when put under pressure, while not impressing as an out-and-out stayer.

It’s My Day was worst of those to hang, nearly running off the track stands’ side up the straight on this reappearance.
