A rather muddling race due to crowding as they all grouped up between 3 out and 2 out, the second, third and fourth all worth marking up for one reason or another, so it's not a result to be taking at face value; the pace was strong, set by Risk A Fine initially and then Revaader.

CAPPIELOW PARK is having a good season and proved better than ever to record third win of the campaign, a 6-week break since his last run probably having done him good; held up, travelled well, went handy after 3 out, hit 2 out, switched soon after, led after last, ran on, suited by the way the race developed; likely to continue in form but the suspicion is that he'll be vulnerable off higher marks.

SPICE FAIR produced best effort to date over hurdles and deserves extra credit too, as but for a last-flight blunder he might even have won; held up, mistake third, went prominent 3 out, led under pressure approaching next, bad mistake last, headed soon after, one paced; he should prove capable of better in this sphere, mindful of Flat ability, and is worth bearing in mind, especially if getting less testing conditions.

ALTO DES MOTTES (FR) ran creditably in first-time tongue strap on handicap debut and deserves some extra credit, his mark probably fairer than his bare form suggests; chased leaders, close up when no room approaching 2 out, bumped last, one paced; may yet do better, a 5-y-o in a top yard after all.

AR MAD (FR) in first-time hood, was ridden differently to how he had been on handicap debut and ran much better, promising more for a long way too; held up, travelled as well as any, headway 3 out, no room before next, effort flattened out; he remains unexposed.

REVAADER was below form in a race where she had competition for the lead, going off too hard; chased leader, went on third, headed approaching 2 out, unable to dominate.

RISK A FINE (IRE) is proving more miss than hit; led, not always fluent, typically pulled hard, headed third, struggling next, turned it in; Exeter win underlines ability he has but can't be trusted to show it and, as such, is one to leave alone.
