Monet's Sunrise²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: Alec Voikhansky⁽⁵⁾| T: R Hannon| OR: 72

2/1

Fairly useful maiden who ran creditably first 3 starts this season. Below form the last twice but this represents a drop in grade.

Form: 3-25300

4/1

Course winner who took advantage of a reduced mark in 9-runner handicap at Newcastle (10.2f) 9 days ago, produced to lead over 1f out and quickening clear. Big player under a penalty judged on that emphatic success.

Off the mark at Bath in May and ran her best race to date when second at Epsom in July. Confirmed that improvement when third at Newmarket 2 weeks ago and remains of interest.

Forecasts

Monet's Sunrise (2/1), Tele Red (9/4), Mrembo (3/1), Hot Team (4/1), Accrington Stanley (8/1)

MREMBO is a 3-y-o still improving judged on her last 2 efforts which marks her down as more interesting than most at this sort of level. Hot Team and Tele Red both carry penalties for recent wins and are feared most.
