Should be able to improve on his debut fourth at Redcar when only fourth of five. Held back by inexperience on that occasion he's entitled to do better with that run his belt as he's wasn't knocked around and will know more this time.
Showed very similar form on both his starts on the AW over 1m2f and 1m4f and now makes his turf debut. Looks a late maturing type who may well do better over further in handicaps and given his connections it won't be a surprise to see him in that sphere next once he has a mark.
€28,000 Canford Cliffs half-sister to several winners, including 1m2f winner Chefchaouen. Didn't really show much on her debut at Thirsk over a mile on soft running very green and only going in snatches although expected to improve for that experience.
Well held in maidens and a handicap over various distances and the blinkers tried last time are now swapped for cheekpieces and she would be a surprising winner to say the least.
Forecasts
Cape Coast (1/3), Count Simon (5/2), Love Candy (25/1), Our Cilla (40/1)
An unappealing and modest contest which boils down to a match between CAPE COAST and Our Simon with slight preference for the more experienced Johnston runner although there isn’t much to choose between the pair. Love Candy and Our Cilla make very little appeal in the likely battle for third spot with the former given the nod in that match.
- Cape Coast
- Count Simon
- Love Candy
