Formscan By Tom Weekes - JOURNEY SO FAR (3) won a weak race in May but did so in the manner of a horse who should better today’s revised rating of 112. A faller when challenging on point-to-point debut 2024, the selection showed little on his subsequent racecourse starts, before routing his rivals at Tramore. That race was confined to horses rated 0-100, but the weight-receiving and well-beaten runner-up subsequently finished second, while the third scored next time out. Golden Temple ran well over hurdles here on Wednesday but makes a quick reappearance while Drop A Threat ran satisfactorily on Tuesday, although is without his then rider’s 7lb claim. Soldante ran well over hurdles on Monday but has a higher chase rating.
