Race preview
A record of three wins from 56 career starts hardly engenders great confidence but, in fairness, TEDDY BOY comes here in good heart and shouldn't be far away. Eddie Lynam's charge was a course and distance winner in January and was twice placed behind in-form rivals here last month. Woodrow might be better over 7f at this stage of his career as it was over that trip that he landed a gamble here last month before not quite having the required speed when carrying his penalty over 6f. He's still a leading contender, though, along with Tawaazon who was narrowly beaten on his most recent handicap start. The start is always a cause of concern for supporters of Hodd's Girl but, if she can get away on terms, the three-time course winner is another who is likely to be involved with headgear now tried for the first time.
