Verdict

DEVIL'S PEAK hasn't looked the easiest of conveyances but he ran well in first-time blinkers when nearest at the finish at Sandown last month and seems sure to be bang there again back up in trip if the headgear works as well for a second time. Nap Hand made a sound start for his new yard over hurdles at Cartmel recently and is feared most reverting to this code on a decent mark.

Horse Racing Basic Terms

Main Track Only

A horse entered for main track only (MTO) is one hoping the weather forecast or track conditions will move the race off the turf course and onto the main track. They are scratched the morning of the race if the conditions stay dry.

Minus Pool

A pari-mutuel pool – typically a show pool - where one horse is so heavily bet that after deductions there is not enough money left to cover the prescribed minimum on each bet.

Sloppy

A wet racetrack condition, typically with a firm base and water settling on top.
