In depth
Verdict
Multitask’s winning run came to an end off today’s mark at Kempton and Titan Goddess looks high enough in the weights now having landed a double over 7f earlier. East Coast Lady is upped in class under a penalty after last week’s success over track and trip while Exceeding Power finished ahead of Spiritual Star and Fantasy Gladiator when fourth here last time and is not out of this. But a chance is taken that GRACIOUS GEORGE can run somewhere near his best on his return from lay-off given he’s only 2lb higher than when landing a course and distance double early this year.
