Half Sovereign¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: S H James| T: K R Burke

Promising type who was doing all her best work at finish when fourth of 10 in novice at Redcar (6f, firm) on debut 16 days ago. Should progress, particularly over this longer trip.

Form: 4

Forecasts

Folk Pageant (13/8), Half Sovereign (7/4), Stoic Poet (6/1), Oso Great (11/1), The Caddy Master (12/1), Panthere Noir (28/1), Believeinthisone (28/1), Go Vince Go (50/1), Time Twister (50/1), Bobbys Pride (150/1)

HALF SOVEREIGN caught the eye on her debut at Redcar last month and should have learnt plenty from that experience. She can open her account. Stoic Poet may provide the chief threat of those with form, whilst Charlie Johnston's Folk Pageant looks the pick of the newcomers.
