Improved when second of 14 in handicap at Redcar on return (soft, 7/1), having looked the winner for most of the way. Matched that form when fourth there since and should be suited by this longer trip. Headgear on.

Caesar's Palace²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Ross Coakley| T: S & E Crisford| OR: 69

4/1

Well held in his 3 starts as a juvenile but much more of an impact when runner-up on handicap debut at Nottingham on return. Extra distance should suit and should go well again.

Forecasts

Zimmerman (7/2), Caesar's Palace (4/1), Fearless Bay (5/1), City Streak (11/2), Mister Camacho (11/2), Down To The Kid (9/1), Spirit Of Uae (10/1), Togai (10/1), Grimsby Town (11/1), Baroque Star (12/1), Buxted Reel (16/1), Go Beyond (33/1)

CAESAR'S PALACE showed improved form when runner-up at Nottingham on his handicap debut 3 weeks ago, shaping as if this longer trip will suit, so is taken to go one better. The progressive Down To The Kid is another to consider, along with Spirit of UAE, who's open to further progress now handicapping.
