Warranty has run some good races on the Flat this summer and returned to Chepstow on 23rd July to contest another staying handicap. A good third on his previous outing over course and distance, he was again ridden patiently, dropped out last in the field of five. He needed to be squeezed along at stages, but made promising headway as the pace lifted inside the final four furlongs. Driven to challenge two furlongs out, he kept on well for pressure but the winner found more, Warranty’s 3rd place another creditable effort in a tactical affair. |
