Analyis of the race

A modest handicap in which the first three all came up the middle. SUMMON UP THE BLOOD didn't show much on his seasonal return but he left that behind here, keeping on strongly up the centre and seeing the trip out well. His yard have been quite slowto find their stride so far so this was a good effort and there could be more to come from him this term as he's been gelded over the winter.

Pediment shaped well on handicap debut, also seeing her race out well and shaping as though she'd get further.

Trumpet Lily, upped in trip for this handicap debut, kept on in the closing stages to snatch fourth from Golden Penny, who was done no favours by some barging and he'd have finished a bit closer with a clear.
