OVERWRITE looked sure to win at Chester when sent clear off the home turn but the grey was reeled in close home by favourite Strait Of Hormuz. Mark Johnston’s grey should be making it third-time lucky today with a similar effort. None of the others with experience can match that form but any market interest in Capla Cubiste would be significant given she’s a half-sister to the smart filly Euro Charline. Rains Of Castamere is another newcomer to note.
