Directory re directed to Nottingham tomorrow
Tuesday, June 26, 2018
DIRECTORY was declared to run at Newbury yesterday but missed the cut so runs at Nottingham tomorrow in a similar contest. He is in a mile handicap and is well drawn in stall 3 of the 8 runners, Ryan Tate will take the ride. He ran a very good race at Kempton over 7 furlongs but didn't handle the dip at Newmarket last time out. He stumbled at a critical stage of the race but stayed on well when he met the rising ground. He looks a very genuine horse. The track and the trip should suit him, the only unknown is the ground. We weren't sure if it was the track at Newmarket or possibly the fast ground but he is a good mover so you would think he would handle a faster surface. He is also by Oasis Dream and the majority of his offspring prefer fast ground. He is in very good form at home so we hope he can run a good race tomorrow.
