The Crafty Mole (2.45 Thirsk)

My original nap, Penelope’s Sister, has been declared a non-runner but this gelding looks a good replacement. He has won on all three starts over this mile-and-three-quarter trip and his latest success at Yarmouth was his easiest yet.

This progressive stayer gives the impression that there is plenty more to come and he can shrug off another 6lb rise.
