Redcar Double: Anieres Boy & Crombay
Finished fifth and sixth at Ayr, fading after setting an overly strong pace. Smaller fields and quicker ground plays to their strengths.
Racecourse: Flat
Features: Left-handed, galloping track. 5f track is quite sharp.
Draw Bias: Weak – A high draw, against the stand’s side is the best draw. Otherwise the track is quite fair.
Pace Bias: Moderate – Horses who stalk the pace are favoured over sprint distances. Hold-up horses find it difficult to win over 5f.
