Verdict
Dornoch Castle’s third at Haydock was a step back in the right direction but LASER GUIDED (NAP) probably has more scope. He only dead-heated at Ripon and is 3lb higher but there should be more to come. Tulekya’s win here in April was on soft going but rain is forecast and she improved again when third at Newmarket last month while Razoni doesn’t know how to run a bad race, though has been racing over further.
