in touch and keen early, ridden and effort over 1f out, no chance with winner
made all, quickened clear inside final furlong, impressive
held up 4th, ridden over 2f out, weakened over 1f out
tracked winner, driven over 1f out, no impression
A poor turnout for the money, but that is only to be expected with several options open for these types at York this week. Mugharreb may have been flattered to have beaten Pepperoni at Yarmouth as the latter refused to put too much effort into the finish, so this looks an easy opening for Three Points, who has several decent efforts to his name at the highest level, none more so than when only beaten three lengths in the Group 1 July Cup. This represents his easiest task for some time and he should make no mistake. Affaire Royale looked none too keen last time, but she may still be good enough for third spot.
