Analyis of the race

A competitive handicap, worthy of the decent prize on offer, fell to LUSCIVIOUS, who showed plenty of dash throughout and who saw his race out in grand style. Soft ground on turf or Fibresand suits him admirably and the plan is to bring him back herein a couple of weeks time.

Xpres Maite, who has been in cracking form for some time, was dropped back in trip here. It slightly caught him out, but he produced a sterling finish and was gaining on the winner all the way to the line. He still looksin great heart.

Tartatartufata was slightly awkward leaving the stalls, but still managed to lead. She ran a sound race, only being put in her place late on and only being run out of second close home.

Gallery Girl, raised 3lb for her recent near-miss at Redcar, was unproven on this surface and could never reach a challenging position.

Bo McGinty, a winner here lasttime, was soon ridden along on this occasion. Tending to hang to his right, into the rails, he was never going to get into it.
