4:25 Bath Tips

Tyger Bay is trained by C. Allen. The horse is a CD winner. Joe Leavy will return in the saddle, which can be a plus. He won twice with this horse this year on AW. He won with this gelding at this track last year in April.

A Christopher Mason-trained 7-year-old who has had 26 races on the flat, winning 7 times and has finished in the frame 11 times. He won last time out here at Bath in a class 5 handicap over 5 1/2f on good to firm going, ridden by today's jockey Gina Mangan, when leading inside the final furlong to win by a neck. He is back in a class 5 handicap over 5 1/2f on soft going and is carrying a 3lbs penalty for his win over c/d 20 days ago. Has a chance to follow up in this race today.

Winner over course and distance in August. Has generally run with credit up in grade since but nudging back down the weights so should run well this afternoon.

Good effort on Aw @ Kempton Lto and very good effort on soft ground @ Sandown 3 runs back in a similar grade race when coming 2/9 beaten 1.25 lengths. Good jockey up and very shrewd trainer is best here with his 4yo plus lastd 5 seasons @ 14 percent, making current 10/ solid Ew value in the race.

Connies Rose is a front-runner who tends to dictate the early pace, so expect her to be prominent from the start. She has consistent form over 6 and handles a range of ground conditions, including soft and good to firm. While she may be vulnerable if challenged strongly late, her previous wins show she can maintain a strong gallop and place well. With 32 career runs giving 3 wins and 8 places, she’s seasoned and well-handicapped, making her an each-way in this field.
