SUMMARY
Going changed to HVS at 13:00pm. Going changed to SHV at 10:30am after 10mm of rain from early am to that time. Still raining and not forecast to stop for 2days or so, S from SGS on Decs. 1mm of Rain overnight and Rain forecast for most of the day.

Stiff to Medium Northerly = Close to Direct Headwind

Another plus for jk Kingscote who aced the break and immediately took the rail and set a slow pace to suit him. Then delayed the final efforts until inside the last 1.5F and reducing the race to a breif sprint on HV ground which wouldn't allow a horse to make much ground. London Life responding willingly enough for a comfortable win. But a low 70s type and found a winnable maiden here. Worth playing the game of what OR she will get in the early Nurseries after this Maiden win - 76-77? [Update 28th May = Picture from day suggesting she is bulking up from her earlier runs if not growing in frame.]

Persun another looking below 75 on size but seems to have rangy movement. That allowed her to make ground in a late race sprint on Good ground FTO. But that race different to this one as shown by the fact the NWBY race was run 5 seconds faster than this one and is 28ths futher. A3 on Persun too passive and just sitting 1L off LLife and waiting for Kingscote to do something. Which meant Persun had the task of making 1L+ on LL in 1F. Never looked like doing it and probably lost 0.5L until the A3 eased her late on. Unsatisfactory race and Persun presumably better than this and similar level to LL.

No point worrying too much about Midnight Destiny given the trainer and ran ok until outpaced in the brief sprint and then fading early. Still looking green at times.
