Wolverhampton Race 3 - Race And Rest - Wolverhampton Holiday Inn Mdn Hcp

NORMAN INVASION (4) remains a maiden after five starts. Drops back down in trip after struggling to see out the 2000m trip at Newbury during July. One to take very seriously representing a strong stable. HAMDA'S JOY (5) made the frame all five starts on the all-weather and revisiting this surface should unlock further improvement. Looks a major player. MEDIA LEGEND (1) was gelded prior to his return to the track this season and remains unexposed therefore commands respect. SHOWCASING STAR (3) finished runner up on his first three starts but disappointed since. Needs to get back on track with his weight dropping.
