Verdict

HICKORY LAD was second in an above-average looking Lily Agnes at Chester a month ago and with the way he stuck to his task that day, 6f promises to suit. He's marginally preferred to Possessive, who arguably has the most scope to improve of these. Of the rest, Wild Terrain also has a bigger effort in him.

Horse Racing Basic Terms

Exercise Rider

A rider built much like a jockey but is employed for exercising and working out horses in the morning.

Also Eligible

A horse that is entered but does not draw into the body of the field due to too many entries, and thus is not permitted to start unless there are enough scratches to shrink the field size.

Bobble/Stumble

A slip or a duck from a horse trying to leave the starting gates, often caused by the surface giving way under the feet. This can range from a mild misstep to a stumble down to their knees.
