In depth
Verdict
In a very moderate-looking bumper to round things off, a chance is taken that Kissing Air will be fit enough to score at the first time of asking, with Do The Locomotion and Blue Speedwill perhaps good enough to figure in the finish. No Nicholls, Henderson, Pipe or Hobbs runner to latch on to here, so we shall look to the Peter Bowen newcomer Kissing Air to provide the answer. By Presenting out of a Strong Gale mare that won an Irish point, she should handle the fastish conditions, and may pop in first time in a race that will take practically no winning. Do The Locomotion was well down the field on his Exeter debut, but at least has a bit of experience, while Blue Speedwill hails from a yard that has plenty of Flat performers, and she may benefit from that factor. A race best forgotten soon after it is run is taken to go to Kissing Air.
