Hills Railway (LR)

WT: 54.0kg Type: OPEN

Heart Of A Lion may be an eight-year-old but has had just 35 starts for now 11 wins yet this is his first at stakes level. The top weight was back and wide early but starting the tight bend was one out with three behind him. Approaching the last corner the field all went wide as did Heart Of A Lion with rider Jason Holder working to get closer to the tearaway leader. Into the straight he pulled wider, closed on the leader and took over at the 200m then was punched out to the line for a good win by a length and a quarter. A great finish from Nipperkin who was last turning in and finished very hard right down the outer for second. Riziz saved ground around the bend, remained near the inside turning in and kept on well for third. Arkham Knight kept on solidly the length of the straight to be best of the rest for fourth.
