Verdict

This is a weak-looking Class 3 contest as those with experience probably still have plenty to prove but, after blowing the start, BRISCOLA did stay on quite strongly behind easy winner Lush Life at Kempton and jockey bookings suggest he’s preferred to stablemate Hasanoanda. After winning a Leicester nursery off mark of 67, Blacklooks ran out when co-favourite at Nottingham and has already run six times. Msaikah cost 300,000 guineas and is a full sister to one winner and half-sister to three others but her stable’s two-year-olds usually improve for a run and her pedigree suggests she’ll make a better three-year-old.
