Verdict

LAOCH GACH LA has gone close at Newcastle the last twice now including under today’s rider on the first of those occasions. She’s taken to go one better in this. Frederick Tett partnered Persian Wolf to victory over track and trip in December and the latter is 3lb higher while Stormingin can do better back over this shorter trip though has yet to win on the all-weather. Hellavapace may prove best of the rest.
