Verdict
YOUR PLACE was caught in the dying strides when failing to land the odds at Hexham. A conditional takes 10lb off her back today and Lucinda Russell’s mare can finally open her account. Shoeshine Boy has rattled up a sequence of seconds also looking for his first success though finished in front of Askgarmor over track and trip last month while You Some Boy’s winning run came to an end with a defeat at Carlisle. Release The Kraken is fitted with cheekpieces today and may finish closer.
