Exeter Race 7 - South West Rail Solutions Ltd Open Nh Flat Race (Gbb Race)
UPTOWN DANDY (11) was narrowly denied 2.25L attempting a course and distance jumpers flat contest when well supported in the market. Finds a suitable opportunity to atone. THE BLUE ROOM (10) finished second over 3410m at Aintree resuming from a break. Fitter now and can improve. WALK TALL (12) holds creditable point to point form including a 2.5L victory at Ballindenisk (Ireland). Promising and rates a major player. IT'S TOP (1) finished 22L seventh tackling a Listed contest at Ascot. Claims.

Five-year-old gelding who is first race starter by Idaho out of Quivvy Bridge. Not seen on the track yet so hard to assess. Nice profile and expected to measure up.

This Kayf Tara bred mare is now five-year-old and his having her first race start. Tough assignment at her first outing so tempted to favour others.
