Landed a 7f Kempton nursery in December and was by no means disgraced over C&D off 8lb higher next time. May have found 1m beyond him last time and has sound claims returned to this trip.
Definite signs of ability in three AW starts over sprint distances. Makes his handicap debut over a longer trip which ought to suit on running style and breeding.
Three quiet runs as a juvenile, but first outing at three in a handicap saw him justify strong support in a C&D contest. Handicapper has had his say with a 4lb rise, but that may not be too prohibitive given the potential for further improvement.
Has shown enough in three starts in novice company to suggest she is capable of winning races. One to note in the betting on handicap debut.
Without a win in seven starts and latest outing, his first after being gelded, saw him finish a fairly close last of five. More exposed than some of his rivals, but entitled to respect given his connections.
Last of three runs in novice company was much his best and sets him up for this first crack in a handicap. Top AW jockey retains the ride so he certainly enters calculations.
First start in a nursery saw her finish 10th of 13 at Salisbury. Has been dropped 1lb and has a lay-off to overcome, but could have improved since last year and jockey booking offers encouragement.
Sent off at long odds and not too much to enthuse about in three starts in novice/maiden company. Needs to up his game now he is handicapping.
Steady improvement in handicaps culminating in an all-the-way win in an apprentice race over 1m at Newcastle. Runs off the same handicap mark over a shorter trip and has to be considered.
Forecasts
Cloud Eight (5/2), Fiery Breath (5/2), Bad Dog (7/2), Golden Footsteps (6/1), Marshal Dan (10/1), Cristal Pallas Cat (10/1), Ventura Gold (14/1), Pact Of Steel (25/1), Renny's Lady (33/1)
Quite a few of these are unexposed and the best of them may be Marshal Dan, Renny's Lady and Cloud Eight, but FIERY BREATH and Bad Dog both won last time and are likely to be on the premises again. The selection was well backed last time and may be able to go in again. Golden Foosteps and Cristal Pallas Cat also have claims in an open race.
- Fiery Breath
- Bad Dog
- Golden Footsteps
