Surprise Encounter⁷⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: R Kingscote| T: D M Simcock| OR: 64

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Jim Crowley| T: Mrs A J Perrett| OR: 60

33/1

66/1

€105,000 foal, 150,000 gns yearling, Siyouni filly who seemed a bit more clued up than on debut last time but failed to translate into an improved showing. Still early days and she's in good hands.

Form: 46

Forecasts

Rose Grey (4/1), Lovers' Gait (5/1), Kimberley (5/1), Kew Palace (6/1), Spring Glow (8/1), Gonna Dancealot (12/1), Festive Love (12/1), Surprise Encounter (12/1), Katniss Everdeen (14/1), Kaleidoscopic (18/1), End Result (22/1), Ruby Red Empress (33/1), Sea Mood (66/1), Hannalite (100/1)

A competitive finale with many making their handicap debuts. ROSE GREY has hit the frame in each of her 3 starts so far and she can make a winning start to life in handicaps having shown fairly useful form on debut in Meydan earlier this year. Kew Palace should have more to offer for William Haggas so gets the vote to chase the selection home, ahead of Lovers' Gait.
