Time Well Spent Novice Stakes

Off time: 16:12 | Winning time: 2m 10.68s

Victory Star¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: J Fanning| T: C & M Johnston

11/1

Night Of Thunder gelding who hasn't offered a great deal in pair of maiden/minor events so far this summer. However, in good hands and he may do better in handicaps in due course.

Form: 56

(7)

Pennymaze²³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Kieran Schofield⁽⁵⁾| T: S A Harris

250/1

Sent off at long odds and offered little when well beaten ninth of 10 in a Stratford bumper on debut last month. Can only be watched now attentions are switched to the level.

Come On Jack³¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Joanna Mason⁽³⁾| T: M & D Easterby

66/1

War Command gelding who was very green when last of 8 on debut in a Redcar novice event (7f) back in November. Absent since and he's another who is likely best watched until handicapping.

Form: 8-

(2)

Cornell¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: S H James| T: J J Davies

200/1

Twice-raced maiden. 150/1, last of 11 in minor event at Newcastle (8f) 12 days ago. Needs to leave those efforts in his wake if he's to feature upped in trip.

Form: 00

Great Commission²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: P Mulrennan| T: B Haslam

100/1

Makes some appeal but not much in the way of short-term encouragement when seventh of 8 in a Hamilton maiden (11f) recently, off the bridle long way out. This should reveal more.

Form: 7

(3)

At A Pinch²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: K T O'Neill| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 85| BF

1/7

Lightly-raced filly who failed to match previous form when runner-up in a Chelmsford maiden (1m) last month, albeit keeping on. Step back up in trip rates a plus now and she should prove tough to beat

Form: 5722

(5)

Stay Home

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Connor Beasley| T: C & M Johnston

6/1

Fascinating Rock half-sister to several winners, including 2-y-o 7f winner Luminous Eyes and 11f winner Indigo King. Dam 7f winner. Wouldn't need to be anything out of the ordinary to feature on debut

Forecasts

At A Pinch (1/7), Stay Home (6/1), Victory Star (11/1), Come On Jack (66/1), Great Commission (100/1), Cornell (200/1), Pennymaze (250/1)

AT A PINCH has proved expensive to follow on each of her last 2 starts but the step back up in trip now rates a plus and she looks to have been found a good opportunity to get off the mark. The Mark Johnston trained pair Stay Home and Victory Star can take the minor money.
