Flag Carrier (IRE)
Free Tips On attheraces.com Handicap
- Outcome
- LAY WON
- Recommended lay
- 8.80
- Winner
- Footstepinthewoods
- Horse result
- 6th of seven, beaten 2¾ lengths
What worked
Flag Carrier took a keen hold, raced close to the pace and weakened inside the final furlong.
What to watch
The field finished fairly close together, but he could not sustain his challenge after racing too freely.
What we learned / things to watch
The clearest lay wins came from Krissy, who weakened to finish last, and Divine Believer, who never moved out of the rear. Mr Globalist was also well held after being outpaced late.
Summerstorms Dream ran into second and Flag Carrier finished in a compact group, so those results deserve more caution than the bare outcome suggests. She's Ideal showed the main danger: a horse travelling comfortably near the pace and quickening clear.
