Weafers Cross

Weafers Cross is a 4-year-old horse trained by Laura Horsfall at her Towcester yard in Northamptonshire, and this is the first time the horse will step out onto a racecourse. By Order Of St George out of a Kingsalsa mare, Weafers Cross arrives with no form to judge, which means the opening race will tell us everything — whether the horse has speed, whether it handles the track, whether it stays calm under pressure. That uncertainty is part of what makes a debut interesting. Horsfall's yard has already sent out 5 winners this season, so the horse is entering an outfit that knows how to prepare runners and get them competitive. What happens next is entirely in the lap of the track.
