Fifty Nifty never reached the leaders and finished 11th, 5¾ lengths behind Modern Times.
What to watch

- 8.40
- Winner

20:30 · Windsor
Rugby Union
Join Fitzdares For A Personal Service Handicap
- Outcome
- LAY WON
- Recommended lay
- 9.40
- Winner
- Give Me Sun
- Horse result
- 5th of seven, beaten 3¼ lengths
What worked
Rugby Union was slowly away, made only modest headway and never threatened the leaders, finishing fifth behind Give Me Sun.
What to watch
He kept on from over a furlong out, but the late progress was not enough to affect the result.
What we learned / things to watch
Several of the lay wins came from horses that raced prominently before weakening. Early position alone was not enough when the finish demanded more.
The two losses came from front-runners who controlled their races. Trean's late price support is worth noting, while Fifty Nifty's traffic trouble is a reminder to keep genuine excuses attached to the final result.
