Verdict
NOUVEAUX placed over 6f here when ahead of both Eyes Closed and Easel but was beaten less than a length over track and trip before that and Rae Guest’s filly gets another chance. Zola Power and Raft Up were well beaten in the same race at Southwell having both been placed earlier while Haumea can do better dropping back down in trip for this.
