Promising individual. 5/6, career best when winning 9-runner handicap at Newcastle (7.1f) 4 days ago, pushed out. Carries penalty but demands consideration in his current mood with return to 1m no issue.
|
Lightly-raced maiden. 15/8, creditable third of 7 in nursery at Doncaster (8f, good), needing stronger gallop. Off 6 months (gelded). Makes tapeta debut for excellent yard and type to make a better 3-y-o.
|
12/1 and cheekpieces on for first time, career best when winning 10-runner handicap at this C&D 75 days ago, well on top finish. First run for yard after leaving Amy Murphy and not yet exposed over 1m.
|
Lightly-raced maiden. Seventh of 9 in nursery at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 4/1). Off 7 months (gelded). First run for yard after leaving Martyn Meade and mark looks stiff on balance.
|
Career best when winning 8-runner handicap (15/8) at this C&D 29 days ago, kept up to work. Up in grade but not taken lightly as a straightforward type.
|
Set a stiff task and fared a well as could be expected when tenth of 14 in minor event at York (7f, soft, 100/1), merely closing up late. Off 173 days. Makes tapeta/handicap debut. Stiff task.
|
Creditable second of 6 in nursery (9/4) at Ripon (8f, good to soft), despite being slowly away. Off 6 months. Makes tapeta debut.
|
Good second of 7 in novice (15/8) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 16 days ago. Fit and in reasonable form but lacks the scope to improve of a few of these.
|
Thrice-raced maiden. Third of 10 in maiden (9/5) at Wolverhampton (8.6f). Off 137 days (gelded). Makes handicap debut and he needs to raise his game.
|
Lightly-raced winner. C&D winner. 10/1, 5 lengths seventh of 8 to Tuco Salamanca in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 19 days ago. Cheekpieces on first time bit no easy task reversing the form with that rival, even on these terms.
|
Tenth of 12 in maiden at Kempton (7f, 10/1). Off 133 days. Makes handicap debut. Very hard to make a case for.
|
Redcar winner in June. Last of 7 in nursery (18/1) at Newcastle (7.1f). Off 180 days and gelded.
|
Very good third of 8 in handicap at this C&D (6/1) 29 days ago, rapid headway but unable to sustain his effort. Has to be taken seriously from just 1 lb higher.
|
Forecasts
Tuco Salamanca (4/5), West Tyrone (5/1), Best Adventure (13/2), Cristo (17/2), Political Power (12/1), Bulletin (16/1), Minelone (22/1), Everyoneknowsadave (25/1), Sir David (28/1), Genbu (40/1), Ventura Dream (50/1), Canvas (66/1), Eighteen Fourteen (66/1)
TUCO SALAMANCA hasn't looked back since undergoing wind surgery, nicely on top at the line when completing the hat-trick at Newcastle on Saturday. He's taken to overcome a 6 lb penalty at the chief expense of Minelone and Best Adventure.
