Laafy
Formerly with Sir Michael Stoute, smart over 1m4f in 2020 when usually visored; absent for 1373 days before last season and staged a partial recovery when tried in cheekpieces at Musselburgh (1m6f) on second run back, admittedly in only eighth of 14 (beaten about 5l); dropped another 6lb since but also absent another 407 days.

From the connections
“I wasn't tied down on Laafy and thought they went plenty quick enough; I thought they'd come back to us. He loves soft ground and has won over a mile-six, but he's effective over over a mile and a half. He's a smashing horse, a big horse and that was a lot of weight in that ground - Jim Crowley, rider”
“Laafy travelled well around there and picked up nicely off what was a steady pace. He's a nice prospect - Pat Dobbs, jockey.”
