Colors Of Freedom⁹^{(ex 6)}

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: L Morris| T: A Watson| OR: 51

10/3

Offered little in trio of 6f novice events and, despite proving very easy to back she showed much-improved form to make a winning handicap debut at Newcastle (6f) 9 days ago, helped by being held up in a strongly-run race. Claims under a penalty.

2/1

Lightly-raced maiden who ran below the form of his C&D fourth when eighth of 10 in nursery at Lingfield (5f, AW) 38 days ago. However, cheekpieces go on now and rider takes off a handy 7 lb.

15/2

Lightly-raced maiden. 14/1, fifth of 6 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) 4 days ago, ridden over 1f out and weakening last ½f. More needed if he's to open his account here.

50/1

Birchwood filly who has yet to offer a great deal, weakening over 1f out when last of 8 in handicap (22/1) at Newcastle (5f) 4 days ago. Cheekpieces go on now but others make much more appeal.

Form: 9760-8

Forecasts

Furnicoe (2/1), Harry With Style (2/1), Colors Of Freedom (10/3), Sumac (15/2), Mystical Dreams (14/1), Mikka (25/1), Artemis Flyer (40/1), Seven Chakra (50/1)

COLORS OF FREEDOM was well served by the strong pace when shedding the maiden tag on handicap debut at Newcastle last week but she was much improved and, given she remains lightly raced, could well have more to offer now she's up and running. Furnicoe bounced right back to form when second on Monday and is next best, ahead of Harry With Style.
