Della Valle was another of our runners to run a great race in defeat this week. Following on from Kodiac Express who went down by 3/4L on Wednesday evening, Della Valle was beaten a neck at Doncaster last night and perhaps in another half furlong she might have got back up!
She was handy from the start of the race and when Favorite Girl went to the lead she got a nice toe into the race. However, the leader fell away quickly in the straight leaving Della in front at the 2f pole, sooner than might have been expected. She made her way home but Inflexiball, under a very strong drive from Luke Morriss, went past with half a furlong to go and hung on. However, Della was coming back at the winner in the last 25yards and the result might have been different if the race was another 50yards longer, but that's racing! Also, our filly could have done with ground a bit softer but it was a very good performance fron her and we were delighted with the result.
