Lake Nagambie

Lake Nagambie is a 4-year-old making their racecourse debut for trainer N. W. Alexander at Leslie in Fife. By Jet Away out of a Westerner mare, the horse arrives at the track with no prior racing record, so there is nothing to go on yet beyond pedigree and the trainer's recent form. Alexander's yard has been in good shape this season, sending out 19 winners, which suggests Lake Nagambie is entering a stable with momentum and know-how behind it. First races always carry an element of the unknown—horses can surprise in either direction—but the fact that Alexander has deemed this one ready to run is a positive sign in itself.
