South West '3 Yrs Old' 'Junior' NH Flat Race (GBB Race)

Off time: 16:22 | Winning time: 3m 2.01s

Polemon

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: Miss Brodie Hampson⁽³⁾| T: A Watson

5/4

Picked up for 17,000 gns in July and is a Frankel half-brother to very smart 1¼m-1¾m Flat winner Weekender. Makes obvious paper appeal for a good stable which has had a few bumper winners in these silks.

Tough Love Teddy

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: Lucy Gardner| T: Mrs S Gardner

25/1

Telescope gelding and the first foal of a dam who ran twice on Flat. Stable not a regular source of bumper winners.

Form:

Twentyfirst Lancer

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: D A Jacob| T: R M Beckett

10/11

Churchill half-brother to smart winner up to 9f Opal Tiara. Leading Flat trainer won this race last year. Prominent showing likely on debut, particularly if the betting vibes are strong.

Form:

Tique

Age: 3| Weight: 10-7| J: M G Nolan| T: J W Mullins

12/1

Blue Bresil filly. Dam bumper/2m hurdle winner (stayed 23f). Yard does get the odd bumper winner. Betting should provide more clues.

Form:

Wichita Brave

Age: 3| Weight: 10-7| J: James Davies| T: Mark GillardWS

80/1

Royal Anthem filly. Dam point winner, maiden under Rules. Possibly best watched.

Form:

Forecasts

Twentyfirst Lancer (10/11), Polemon (5/4), Tique (12/1), Ghyll Manor (16/1), Tough Love Teddy (25/1), Wichita Brave (80/1)

Leading Flat yards may dominate this concluding bumper, with Archie Watson's POLEMON getting a narrow vote ahead of Twentyfirst Lancer, whose trainer Ralph Beckett won this race last year.
