NIBRAS RAINBOW had little chance in a valuable sales race at York last time and ran accordingly. But he’d won at Leicester on an earlier handicap debut and can go close again. Naughty Ted finished in front of Golden Alba when second of five runners in a claimer while little separated third-placed Kamada and Harswell Rose at Catterick. Stephenie's Saga never threatened the winner at Thirsk on her handicap bow but may finish closer today.
