MORTE POINT has been in fine form of late, including winning LTO at Chelmsford, and looks value at head of the market. Dapper Guest is up in class after a success at Chelmsford earlier this month, however G Margarson’s 5% SR (A/E 0.43) in C1-3 makes his charge easy enough to oppose, meanwhile this is Angel Hunter’s first go on the sand and it’s no guarantee he’ll take to it. G Tutty does poorly with LTO runners-up (5% SR, A/E 0.29) so One Night Thunder can be opposed and Eldrickjones looks too high in the handicap to be threatening today. This is a competitive little heat and you could look for an outsider but the jolly is a horse on the improve and I’m expecting him to take another step forward here. The son of Due Diligence was short of room at a crucial point at Chelmsford but still managed to pull clear by 2l and a 3/4l 2nd of 16 in the City Of Doncaster handicap last month backs up his promise. DD’s 52% SR (A/E 1.61) with 3yo favourites and L Edmunds’ 48% SR (A/E 1.54) on favs in Autumn adds further confidence. 10/3 taken.
