In depth
Verdict
Sexy Rexy was due to race here yesterday having finished ahead of Philos when runner-up last month. But he’d earlier been beaten by CINNODIN when the latter made a winning handicap debut over 1m4f on the Tapeta and there looks more to come from Richard Hughes’ charge over this extra distance. Red Bird makes her handicap debut having failed to threaten in novice company.
