Plumpton 4:38 Result

Farhh Echo carries top-rated form on OR91, well clear of this modest Class 5 field on the weights. His recent run reads 80-P11, showing he's fit and improving with the tongue-tie fitted, and crucially he ran just 2 days ago, suggesting the yard is happy with him and pressing on quickly - often a sign of a horse in form and the trainer taking advantage of a favourable opportunity. The claim from Beau Morgan (5lb) also helps offset his big weight. The rest of the field is fairly workmanlike: A Tickatickatiming is fair but has had a break of 70 days and her best form is around this mark, not clearly superior; Bread and Butter is a big weight-carrier of old but has had a break and is dropping in class; Khalk'eau Spigao and Captain Connor are the ones in-form but rated in the low 80s, a good chunk below Farhh Echo; Anxious Moments for Cobden/McManus is interesting market-wise but has an unreliable formline (U0-69) and a big let-up. On pure ratings and recent scoring form, Farhh Echo looks the swift standout, and with a break to 90+ level established with the recent placed effort, he looks capable of following up quickly while fresh in the handicapper's eye.
