There was plenty of money around for Raven’s Up on debut at Yarmouth earlier this month, but Marco Botti’s charge shaped as though in need of the experience. That looked a deeper race than this and there were plenty of positives to take from the run.
She is bred to handle this surface, her yard is going well and Marco Ghiani is a positive jockey booking, so she can run a big race on her second racecourse start today.
