Race Analysis
A competitive heat. THE GRAFTER (2) shed the maiden tag on first outing over fences in a course and distance contest last month beating the re-opposing SPADESTEP (1). Did it convincingly on that occasion and most likely has more to offer. The second mentioned is developing a frustrating profile filling the runners-up spot in five of six outings under rules. Certain to run his race again. Each way play. Things have really started to click with STICK WITH ME SAM (5) who registered a third consecutive triumph in latest. Top jockey partners him again. ALWAYS A REASON (4) maintains a 100% record in chases just holding on at Catterick last start.
