In depth

Verdict

Giving Back is an interesting newcomer being by top NH sire Midnight Legend and a half-sister to Flat and hurdles winner Giveaway Glance, though her sibling was best on ground with some give. We’ll bank on the experience of FAR CRY as she made a fair debut on Polytrack at Lingfield when ahead of Oriental Flame and the disappointing Simonia. Moody Maggie, a daughter of Milan, only found one too good at Huntingdon last month so also goes on the short-list while Rose To Fame has plenty of speed in her pedigree.
