Verdict
The progressive OJALA (NAP) completed a hat-trick of 7f victories with last month’s success at Kempton. He drops back down in class today with Ryan Moore taking over the reins and looks the one to beat. Tribal Warrior won a novice race at Kempton recently and makes his handicap debut while Golden Footsteps went close in a handicap at Lingfield but is upped in class. Rastacap was expected to do better over 6f last time and attempts a longer trip for the first time and the latter comment also applies to the returning Fake News.
