Edgar back into form - Summer lot back in
Final Edgar Makes Encouraging Comeback at Hexham
Final Edgar made his return to the track yesterday at Hexham after recovering from a virus, delivering a promising performance under a patient ride from jockey Jamie Hamilton. It was particularly encouraging to see him finishing his race strongly, addressing concerns from his previous outings. Crossing the line in third place, Edgar not only secured valuable place money for early backers but also added to the prize fund for his owners.
After the race, Jamie noted how well Edgar finished, a positive sign for his future outings. This morning, he has come out of the race in good form, and Craig and Mark are already working on identifying his next target.
