Racing UK HD On Sky 426 Apprentice Handicap

Off time: 17:02 | Winning time: 2m 11.79s

(12)

Crushed^p1³⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Paula Muir| T: M Walford| OR: 70| D

25/1

First run since leaving Alan KIng's stable for current yard when well down the field at Carlisle. Cheekpieces fitted in a bid to stage a revival.

Form: 3103-70

(8)

Bayston Hill¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Gary Mahon| T: M D I Usher| OR: 67| D

8/1

Knocking on the door in recent outings. Handicap rating does not offer much leeway, but he is in good heart and should be on the premises.

Form: 544424

(4)

Misu Pete^p²⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: Thomas Greatrex⁽³⁾| T: M D I Usher| OR: 66

11/1

Newbury winner in August and produced a good run at Chester last time. Trainer, who also saddles Bayston Hill, has a strong hand in this contest.

Form: 232173

(9)

Crimson Skies^v1¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Patrick Pilley| T: Tom Dascombe| OR: 70

10/1

Not at his best at Haydock last time, but had previously gone close at that track. Drops in trip and this prominent racer might be suited by it in a first-time visor.

Form: 576426

(11)

Collate^h¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Seamus Cronin⁽³⁾| T: Miss A Murphy| OR: 70

16/1

First outing for this stable and first since a wind operation when finishing down the field at Lingfield last month. Hood she wore for the first time there is retained and more is needed off 4lb lower.

Form: 145-099

(2)

Decima²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Josh Quinn⁽³⁾| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 65| D

14/1

Went up 5lb for winning over 1m3f at Carlisle and probably found 1m6f at the same venue stretching her stamina. Runs off the same mark and this shorter trip should be more to her liking.

Form: 3-68716

(3)

Lopito^t1³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Joshua Bryan| T: A M Balding| OR: 68| BF

5/2

Only five runs so far, two of them in handicaps and the latest saw him finish a promising second of 12 at Windsor. Getting the hang of things and looks a player off 1lb higher with a tongue tie fitted for the first time.

Form: 8-4442

(16)

Eden Rose¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Scott McCullagh⁽³⁾| T: M R Channon| OR: 68

14/1

Behind Crimson Skies when unplaced at Haydock last time. Has bits of form which puts her in the picture, however.

Form: 652348

Moneyoryourlife²⁹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Emma Taff⁽⁷⁾| T: R Hannon| OR: 64| D

40/1

Enjoyed a decent 2017 campaign, but has not been sighted since December. Likely to need this outing and is probably best watched.

Form: 143247-

(5)

Savannah Moon¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: K A Ryan| OR: 63| D

6/1

Clipped heels and unseated rider last time, and previous efforts had been ordinary. Down to the mark which saw her win at Pontefract in May.

Form: 76497U

(6)

Bristol Missile¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Jonathan Fisher⁽⁵⁾| T: R J Price| OR: 63| D

5/1

Occasional good run since joining current yard from Richard Hannon's stable. Down to a lenient mark, but needs to find extra.

Form: 623857

(7)

Star Of Athena³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: George Wood| T: A Stronge| OR: 66

25/1

Signs of ability in three runs in novice company. Well worth a check in the betting as she competes in a handicap for the first time.

Form: 753

(14)

Khazix³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Nicola Currie| T: D J S Ffrench Davis| OR: 65

14/1

Not without promise since joining this stable from Jamie Osborne's yard. Well worth a try at this longer trip

Forecasts

Lopito (5/2), Bristol Missile (5/1), Savannah Moon (6/1), Bayston Hill (8/1), Crimson Skies (10/1), Misu Pete (11/1), Decima (14/1), Khazix (14/1), Eden Rose (14/1), Collate (16/1), Boots And Spurs (16/1), Crushed (25/1), Star Of Athena (25/1), Ski Blast (25/1), Ginger Jack (33/1), Moneyoryourlife (40/1)

A competitive finale which can go to LOPITO, who seems to be coming to the boil and is fitted with a tongue tie for the first time. Bayston Hill and Misu Pete give their trainer a strong hand, while others to consider include Crimson Skies, Decima, Savannah Moon, Star Of Athena and Khazix.
