In depth

Verdict

Calling Time had shown nothing in maidens on Turf before landing a similar race to this over the track and trip where she had KING'S VOW behind. Jessica Harrington's filly has gone up 10lb but Nathan Crosse is fine value for his 7lb claim. However, the runner-up didn't get the best of runs and Kevin Manning is a very positive booking so he's taken to reverse the form and land this. Most of tonight's field were behind with Dreamboat Dave doing best in fourth though it's Finding Nero, who was well supported, that looks more of a threat as he failed to obtain a clear run at a crucial stage. The selection's yard also run Esprit de Lumiere and Ifyouhaveaminute and the latter, who is bred for this trip, is taking a huge step up after racing over the minimum.
