keen tracked winner, ridden halfway, kept on same pace final furlong
Instantly has no easy task on his debut given all of today’s rivals have shown enough to suggest they can win at this level. Ivor was well beaten here in April but a better showing is expected today after placing at Leicester last time while LADY QUICKSTEP went close at Redcar recently. But Gay Kelleway’s filly had won by four lengths over track and trip on her earlier introduction and gets the vote on that course form. Inyamazane was beaten only a head at Bath last time and blinkers are applied to Taxiwala having just missed out in both starts so far.
