Analyis of the race

TASHEBA was the one progressive horse in this field, and he was not troubled to defy a penalty for last week's win at Great Leighs. He and Askar Tau pulled 20 lengths clear of their field on that occasion, giving the form a solid look, and Tasheba confirmed with this follow-up effort that he is very much on the upgrade.

Cossack Prince, who won over 1m at Wolverhampton last season but has struggled in handicaps at up to 1m3f this term, proved no match for the winner on this step up in trip, butran well enough to be worth another try at the distance.

Estate, not disgraced on his return to Flat action at Pontefract a fortnight ago, could not build on his fourth place there and was beaten turning for home.
