SUMMARY
GFG from G on Decs with 0.5mm Drizzle on Monday.

A clearly elated trainer Guest told a long back Story about Pumaflor with several diversions to advertise the owner's businesses. The horse had a soft palate operation and while looking at other possible breathing issues the Vets found a "genetical defect" as Guest put it. This defect meaning his windpipe at the back of the Larynx is only around a third of the normal diameter but cannot be improved by any operation. Guest had decided with the owners to run the horse anyway and see what he could do. Noting that the horse was willing and a trier and that helped him do his best. When asked by the stwards about the 'improved' performance Guest said the GFG going had helped. A messy race in a slow time with a number of horses hampered, blocked in or not running to their best for other reasons did not seem to need much 'improement' to be winnable.
