Yielding to Soft CHANGED to yielding after 3rd race View all races

Formscan By Gary Carson - FARNBOROUGH should be good enough to win a maiden of this standard. The Galileo gelding was a touch unlucky in a competitive handicap at the Curragh last time having been runner-up in three maidens previously. He got stopped in his run a couple of times before staying on into sixth behind Betterdaysrcoming. Going back up slightly in trip now should suit. Emotivo is rated 2lb inferior by the handicapper and looks the obvious danger. The Belardo filly was a bit outclassed in stakes company at Navan last time but had run well on her return this season when third to Jackie Oh in a decent maiden at Naas. Machnamh ran a solid race when third at Gowran last time and looks place material again.
