Concorde⁴^{(ex 6)}

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: B A Curtis| T: G Boughey| OR: 55| BF| D

2/15

Much improved since sent handicapping, scoring at Redcar (1m) before most unlucky second at Chelmsford City 4 days ago, in command in front but eased prematurely and caught line. Can gain compensation off the same mark.

Form: 688-12

Forecasts

Concorde (2/15), Edmund Ironside (9/1), Camacho Star (16/1), Gottaifan (20/1), Moltisanti (33/1), Kohana Breeze (66/1), Heart Of Acklam (66/1)

CONCORDE was a most unlucky second at Chelmsford City last time so is strongly fancied to resume winning ways off the same mark here. Camacho Star and Edmund Ironside fought out a good finish at Redcar and can chase home George Boughey's improving sort in that order.
