Fine Form
Or Another HM – 2.05
ran the very definition of green on his debut but should be wiser for that experience in the Wyvis Roofing EBF Maiden takes at Hamilton.
Trained by Karl Burke, who knows a thing or two about winning with two-year-olds, the son of Dark Angel is out of a dam who is a half-sister to Tactical, winner of the Windsor Castle in the royal silks.
Having broke well he then dropped to the back of the four-runner field before rushing up on the outside going like the winner.
He just looked a bit clueless when asked for an effort and can be expected to know a lot more about the game this time.
Alterity HM – 2.35
is an interesting runner for Charlie Johnston in the One Stop Roofing Supplies Ltd Restricted Novice Stakes.
From a very good Kirsten Rausing family, she ran a nice race on her debut when fifth of 10 at Newmarket last season.
The winner, Moon Target, has competed almost exclusively in Group races since, the second has won four and the third ran a nice race behind Inis Mor at Goodwood on Saturday.
With plenty of stamina in her pedigree this step up to nine furlongs is expected to suit.
Burke can also be on the scoresheet at Beverley where Penny Arcade should be hard to beat in the Cottingham Claiming Stakes.
Fourth of four behind the speedy Adonius at Musselburgh, beaten only five lengths, she stepped forward when second at Thirsk.
It is surprising to see her drop into claiming company so quickly but it looks a good opportunity to open her account.
Ed Dunlop’s
Hibernate BE – 3.45
is on the crest of a wave and can bring up a hat-trick in the Dr Eddie Moll Handicap.
Having looked exposed at the end of last season he has taken his form to new heights this campaign and is off a career-high mark of 70.
Archie Watson’s
Phalanx Nation KM – 6.00
should know more about what is required when she lines up for the Try Unibet’s New Improved Acca Boosts Fillies’ Novice Stakes at Kempton.
She was sent off odds-on for her debut last month but played up on the way to post and ran too free in the race itself, coming home third. She can clearly motor, though, and is given another chance.
Water To Wine KM – 7.30
may have been taken out of the Derby but he is still a colt of immense potential.
He fairly bolted up on his debut at Newbury and it is interesting Ryan Moore is keen to maintain the partnership on John and Thady Gosden’s colt in the Unibet Novice Stakes.
The Gosdens can also be on the mark with
King’s Trust KM – 8.00
in the Unibet Supports Safer Gambling Handicap.
He ran in a couple of strong races before opening his account at Southwell in October but was withdrawn from his intended reappearance after playing up in the stalls.
