Beagle Bay³⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-9| J: H Crouch| T: R M Beckett| D

11/2

Shaped with plenty of promise in a good maiden at Newbury last spring and showed himself to be over whatever kept him off the track after as he landed the odds in straightforward fashion at Chelmsford (7f) last month. There should be more to come.

Forecasts

King's Cavalry (7/4), I'll Be Back (3/1), Dumuji (7/2), Beagle Bay (11/2), Erudition (8/1), Court Alert (16/1), Flor De Guerra (40/1), Mertoun (40/1), Landslide (80/1), Golden Harvest (200/1), Society Charm (250/1), Clough (300/1)

KING'S CAVALRY made a promising start in a Newmarket novice that has worked out really well and with improvement on the cards this year, he can get the better of penalised winners Beagle Bay and I'll Be Back. Court Alert was second in a valuable sales race last summer and surely won't remain a maiden for much longer.
