In depth
Verdict
Capofaro came up short at Kempton when caught in the closing stages by Comeonfeeltheforce. The latter may well confirm running with an apprentice’s 7lb allowance taken into account while Lippy Lady was beaten less than a length in a blanket finish over 7f at Kempton last month and is still looking for her first success. Sacred Warner and Clubora may both do better now handicapping but TEMUJIN ended last season with a placed effort in a Kempton handicap and with three of the first four home all winning subsequently, Charlie Hills’ colt gets the vote on his reappearance.
