This race looks like following iover a cliff only .04 slower than ektihaam winning the listed race from Thomas Chippendale by 6ls winner rated 111 runner up 112.The listed race was run at a nice pace certainly not uneven suggesting the handicap is very strong form for the grade.Just looking at the first six home it looks even better when you look at their profiles most of them bar the rinner up have only had 5/6 runs and some were coming off long lay offs.Should be some nice value floating around from this race especially when you get further down the field to horses like mexicali trained by ivory which will undoubtedly be overlooked.The fact the first 6 home are also open to improvement makes it eve more interesting not just the time of the race
Tinshu.
Will add on tinshu especially if she returns to ascot over 1m2fs she travels well on this track and although looked not to stay never got a run so was probably a bit better than she showed and as the time was so good a return here at massive prices she'd be worth a bet.
