Mid Winster

Mid Winster ran better than the bare form of her run in the five-furlong handicap suggests. She travelled up well towards the near side, but she got a little out-paced when they quickened on the run to the two-furlong marker. She stayed on well though, out in the centre of the track, closing all the way to the line. She only finished fifth in the end, but she was only beaten a total of three and a half lengths by the winner Came From The Dark, and she was closest at the finish.

Paul Midgley’s filly finished strongly, she was in front at the pull-up, and she could do better now stepped back up to six furlongs. She did win over five furlongs at Ayr on her previous run, but her best runs in Ireland when she was with Andy Slattery were over six. This was just her third run for Paul Midgley, so she could progress again, and she remains on a handicap rating of 81, which is 8lb lower than the mark on which she started off this season. She goes well on easy ground, so she will be of interest if she runs again on easy ground this season.
