Moreton Madras (Kinloch Brae-Precious Story, Jul 15) produced the performance of the night at Swindon on Wednesday.
John Spracklen’s black (T4 7-4) has been a revelation since switching to six bends with four wins in her last five races 630/685m.
A fast time was inevitable on good going and her two lengths win over Simple As That (T6 7-2) was timed at 41.52 (+40) – the fastest time of the year (TR 40.94).
