Reginalds Tower²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-12| J: Ronan Whelan| T: M Halford| BF

9/4

Fair maiden in bumpers who offered something to work on when eighth of 13 in maiden (10/3) at this course (10.7f) on flat debut 26 days ago, never better than midfield. This greater test promises to suit and he rates a likely improver.

8/1

35,000 gns yearling, Champs Elysees gelding. Half-brother to 2-y-o 7f winner Sesame Birah. Worth noting if market speaks in his favour on debut with yard also saddling Stuntman.

25/1

Once-raced gelding. Tenth of 13 in maiden (14/1) at this course (10.7f) on debut 26 days ago, never landing a blow but not unduly punished. This should reveal more up in trip.

9/2

Fairly useful filly. 3/1, last of 6 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f) in August, beaten before the straight. However, she had showed fairly useful form in maidens previously and bounce back distinctly possible starting out for new yard.

6/1

Thrice-raced filly. Fifth of 13 in maiden (11/1) at this course (10.7f) 26 days ago, not quicken final 1f. Further progress not ruled out now stamina is tested further.

Forecasts

Reginalds Tower (9/4), Engagement Ring (7/2), Banned (9/2), Marvelosa (9/2), Nel (6/1), Make Us Proud (8/1), Bambino Cavallo (12/1), Mr Escobar (16/1), Stuntman (25/1), He Knows Nothing (50/1), Superlike (50/1), Keep Sharp (100/1), Thatboathassailed (125/1), Mount Bounty (200/1), Tara Oak (200/1), Red Lodge (250/1), Ely Bandero (250/1)

BANNED clearly wasn't herself at Wolverhampton back in August but she had previously displayed a fairly useful level of form in maidens for Hughie Morrison and she could be worth chancing to get back on track on debut for her new yard now. Engagement Ring, Reginalds Tower and Marvelosa head up the dangers, whilst Make us Proud is a newcomer to note.
