Verdict

MOLLY CAREW carries a penalty but won by a wide margin when sent off favourite at Ffos Las last week. There looks more to come on only her fourth outing over fences. Ryalex, Never Up and Pookie Pekan finished down the field in the same race over track and trip last month but the former ran well for a long way and can figure in this while The Orange Rogue finally showed some improvement for a tumble down the weights when second at Ayr and finishing in front of Instingtive, though never threatened the winner.
