Several have been threatening to get their heads in front. Jost Sayin was placed yet again on her latest outing and Karenina found one too good for the third time in succession last time still looking to add to her one victory in 28 attempts. But ELITE APPEAL also went close when beaten a length over track and trip at the start of the month and it’s Ed Plesa’s filly that gets the vote to come out best and confirm latest running with For Kicks in the process. Too Much War will be sharper for a recent comeback and her yard is in flying form.
