Unlucky there with Woven, that’s the way at the moment! More to follow later.

Rain is forecast on race day at Newbury and if the ground gets softer then I’d expect further support for Harry Eustace’s MUSTAZEED in the Dubai Duty Free Handicap over 10 furlongs.
The son of Territories won this race last year a day after finishing second to Due To Henry over the same course and distance and he’s clearly well adept at backing up quickly.
Running just last week at the Leger meeting looks a positive then and he was dropped a further 2lb after blowing the start where he gave the field over 10 lengths.
Obviously he’ll have to be sharper from the gates here, which is very much the worry, but he’s back on a really competitive mark of 87 – just 1lb higher than last year where he bolted up – and he’s got bags of good Newbury form to his name and worth chancing.
