In depth

Verdict

Horse Whisperer showed little in maidens but was well supported for his nursery debut on this track and battled to a short-head victory. She's only been raised 3lb and easily holds Flemish on that run. LOOBY couldn't handle testing conditions in a much better race than this at Goodwood having shown potential earlier. She can give the weight away as Peace Wall has been showing good pace but not getting home while Tropical Air led to halfway at Ayr before weakening.
