Making just his second start and first since being gelded when finishing fourth of nine over 1m at Leicester (good-to-soft) a month ago. Worth a check in the market here.
Ran well in a couple of maiden events on the AW during the winter but well beaten in three runs in handicap company on turf in 2017. Others make more appeal here.
Fair debut effort when finishing 9¾L third of seven over 1m2f at Windsor (good-to-firm) a month ago. Looked as if he'd improve for the experience on that occasion and likely to run well in this.
Respectable efforts in maiden company for previous stable and purchased for 16,000 gns at the sales in May. Making his first appearance since being gelded and interesting upped in trip today.
Ran well on debut over 1m at Kempton on the AW in December but disappointing twice since including over 1m2f at Windsor (good-to-firm) last month.
Unraced gelded son of Sakhee and a half-brother to three winning sprinters. Probably best watched on his debut in this contest.
Beaten 135L when making his debut over 1m4f in a hood (retained) at Kempton a fortnight ago. Others make more appeal in this.
Placed on four of her seven starts including when beaten a short-head over 1m at Windsor (good-to-soft) in May. Ran a fair race behind an in form rival at Sandown (1m1f, good) subsequently and steps up in trip here.
Ran well off a mark of 68 in a handicap on soft ground over 1m4f at Leicester in May but beaten odds-on favourite when contesting a seller over an extended 1m3f here subsequently.
Forecasts
Peloton (6/4), Josh The Plod (9/2), Leapt (5/1), Fools And Kings (6/1), Pondering (7/1), Bermondsey Belle (16/1), Eternal Dream (16/1), Solent Meads (25/1), Flooded (50/1)
JOSH THE PLOD can step up on his debut third at Windsor by taking this three-year-old maiden contest. The selection was well held on that occasion but shaped as if he'd benefit from the experience and he can see off Pondering who wears a visor for the first time today having been beaten in selling company last time while Peloton is another to note here stepping up in distance today.
- Josh The Plod
