Newmarket Tips: Wordcraft
Found her path blocked when trying to challenge last time. Should win granted a clear passage.
Wordcraft was a slightly unlucky loser last time out and is up to winning the 7.55 Newmarket if granted a clear run.
At Newmarket last time she got caught in a pocket as the race developed and on a track that was favouring front-runners, she could never bridge the gap once in the clear.
In his post-race interview Charlie Appleby described Wordcraft as a ‘filly who does not accelerate, she lengthens.’
The step-up in trip should therefore play to her strengths and although she is up against some unexposed rivals, she has run speed figures good enough to win in this grade.
