FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - That was quite the training performance by Gavin Cromwell to get MOONBALL to win off a 585 day break last time. Of course a boon to her chance now is that the win achieved two and a half weeks ago was over this course and distance. The daughter of Kapgarde has been hiked up by eight pounds in the handicap, and that, allied with the ‘bounce factor,’ will have some looking elsewhere. However Gavin Cromwell would hardly be risking the six-year-old if he wasn’t happy with her. She’s reportedly had leg trouble and the patience afforded to her by connections could be rewarded again. Several of these lack a recent run. One that doesn’t is Rasiym. A big performance is surely in the offing from the French-bred, despite his top-weight impost.
