In depth

Verdict

El Cap has had four races, all on the all-weather, and hasn't made the expected progress. Envisaging is flattered by his form figures as he's been racing in small fields but Mathix should find a race soon as he was only headed in the closing stages over an extra furlong at Ripon. TRIBAL CONQUEST (NAP) cost a whopping 550,000gns and his dam has produced winners with her first two foals. He's unlikely to repay a fraction of that outlay, especially as he's been gelded since his opening run on this track, but should improve sufficiently to get off the mark.
