In depth
Verdict
The portents are very good for Mornin Reserves and his improvement may not have yet reached it's peak yet. He has risen 22lb in the ratings since winning at Hamilton in May but finished in the style of a horse who still has plenty to offer when scoring at Carlisle last month. Marshallspark goes well at the track and should have enough scope to . But the balance of form leaves him a little short of the mark in this company. Coffee Time and Mactavish have been expensive animals to follow so Betty's pride may provide some decent each way value.
