Razor Sharp Handicap 2024 Preview

Track: Soft 6 Weather: Cloudy

Hedged comes up a deserving favourite. Form is excellent for this race, drawn well and ticks all the boxes. Moravia has the speed to head to the front and prove tough to hold out. Perielle has been luckless this prep and has the turn of foot to win but needs things to fall into place. Jedibeel races well here and is worth thought off the back of a poor run.
