Verdict
Ghaith gets a chance of headgear having been narrowly beaten at Ffos Las but returns to novice company with something to find with Mr Carpenter at the weights. The latter is fitted with a tongue-tie having failed to threaten despite finishing second at Newcastle though also has the beating of both Mary Somerville and Society Guest on today’s terms. But FURQAAN has been kept in training having raced just the once last year when third at Wolverhampton. Surrounded by subsequent winners on that occasion, Owen Burrows’ filly can figure in the finish on her return with Healing Power and Alvaro newcomers to note.
