Elysian Flame
Smart staying handicapper for Mick and David Easterby in 2021 when competitive at some of the top meetings; only his second run since when winning over 2m at Beverley (good to soft; 2lb higher today) in April, while 1m5f helps to explain his last of five at Hamilton four weeks ago; not dismissed.

From the connections
“My grandad used to train Elysian Flame but he got injured a few times and, after we ran him in September, we didn't get the ground for him again. I thought this race would suit him. It's a great track and just down the road. We thought we'd give him a spin, but he went and won. He's a bit of a legend and a class horse, he just keeps on finding. We're a small team but we keep busy and that will cover the costs for the winter, won't it! - Sam Coward, joint-trainer & owner.”
“Elysian Flame ran well at Ayr on debut and knew more today. He loved the ground and is a horse to look forward to - Nathan Evans, jockey.”
