D Flawless²²

Age: 5| Weight: 8-7| J: Rhys Elliott⁽⁵⁾| T: P T Midgley| OR: 69

50/1

Has the speed for this sort of trip but ended up doing too much too soon when seventh of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (5f, 33/1) 22 days ago, shaping as if better for the run after 7 months off. Unexposed as a sprinter and interesting.

Forecasts

Hiya Maite (5/2), Ziggy's Triton (3/1), Blinky (5/1), Existent (11/2), Mon Na Slieve (11/2), Jm Jhingree (10/1), Lion's House (16/1), Counsel (20/1), D Flawless (50/1), Dorney Lake (50/1)

ZIGGY'S TRITON has been thriving over C&D and there is no reason to take him on in his hat-trick bid. Old rival Hiya Maite can go well again, while Mon Na Slieve has a fair shout. Don't rule out D Flawless, either.
