3/1

Saxon Warrior gelding who was again the subject of strong support and stepped up on previous efforts when fourth of 8 in handicap (5/4) at Lingfield (8f, AW) 7 days ago. Didn't look entirely straight forward then but not ruled out in any case.

Form: 0409-4

Manton Road^b,e/s⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: L Morris| T: Miss Gay Kelleway| OR: 47

1/1

Showed improved form when third on stable debut at Newcastle (1m) in December and much improved when first past post (before losing race in stewards' room) on account of causing interference in 1m handicap at Lingfield 7 days ago. Big shout off same mark.

Forecasts

Manton Road (1/1), Aneedah Hero (3/1), Paulie Two Lockers (5/1), Rumba Bay (17/2), Invincible Love (11/1), Missile Mac (22/1), Go Steelers Go (40/1), Brown Gold (200/1)

MANTON ROAD has improved upon joining Gay Kelleway, first past the post only to lose the race in the stewards' room at Lingfield (1m) 7 days ago. He can gain compensation operating from the same mark. Aneedah Hero and Missile Mac may emerge as 2 of the likelier dangers.
