Saint Riquier⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 10-4| J: Joe Leavy⁽³⁾| T: Ian Williams| OR: 67| D

2/5

Has made a positive return from a long absence, winning over this trip on AW at Lingfield before routing his field in a 1¼m Leicester apprentice race last Tuesday. Escapes a penalty for that and will be very hard to beat if in the same form.

Forecasts

Saint Riquier (2/5), Laser Focus (7/1), Gearing's Point (15/2), Falsetto (14/1), Remarkable Flight (22/1), Torbellino (22/1), Corporate Raider (22/1), Irezumi (25/1)

A race which to a large degree revolves around SAINT RIQUIER, who will surely complete a hat-trick if in anything the same form as when bolting up off the same mark at Leicester last week. Torbellino and Laser Focus can fight it out for minor honours.
