Tiptoptim recent form: analyst notes

  • Pos 3 29 Dec Newbury

    Shared front spot early - handed up soon after - urged along before three out - dropped away two out - rallied to fight for second before last - edged out for the frame in the closing strides

  • Pos 1 6 Nov Ludlow

    Led throughout at a measured tempo and showed inexperience - held a decisive advantage at the last despite drifting left and clipping it - won

  • Pos 2 5 Oct Uttoxeter

    Sat close to the front group early - shared 2nd spot 3 out and driven on then asked for more after 2 out - kept going to the line but couldn't reel in the winner

  • Pos 1 3 Mar Newcastle

    Set the pace from the off - driven up around 7f and again 3f out then edged in front approaching the last furlong - kept finding more to win going away
