Stay Away Fay (8/11), Giovinco (5/2), The Changing Man (9/2), Conkwell Legend (66/1)

Verdict

STAY AWAY FAY deserves plenty of credit for pulling the race out of the fire on his chase debut at Exeter where he rallied to get the better of the re-opposing The Changing Man, having looked held when headed at the third-last. This strong stayer will be very much at home on this stiff track and he is taken to uphold the Exeter form, despite meeting the runner-up on 3 lb worse terms. This represents a significant step up in class for Giovinco, but he is unexposed and clearly very promising.

  1. STAY AWAY FAY (IRE)
  2. THE CHANGING MAN (IRE)
  3. GIOVINCO (IRE)
