In-running (Weleyff (IRE))

“Settled with plenty of enthusiasm early - set the pace throughout - challenged for a spell 2f out - edged back clear approaching the final furlong - drifted off a true line late - margin narrowed near the line but held on gamely for the win”

Racing Post verdict

Third-party

Eighth Immortal holds a clear edge in this five-runner Class 4 contest at Doncaster, rated ten pounds above the next-best Weleyff and comfortably clear of the remainder, though whether he can fully translate that superiority to the track on this occasion is the question that keeps confidence measured. Weleyff and Lincoln Warrior are the chief dangers, with the former in particular capable of outrunning his lower rating on good-to-firm ground over seven furlongs. Encounter merits a mention despite rating seventeen pounds behind our selection. **Eighth Immortal** is the pick.
