Well, it was not the most efficient ride last time out. But when asked to quicken, it was the only horse to do so under 12 seconds for the 3-2 favourite. Then it produced another very good sectional in what was quite a fast-finishing race overall. So tonight, with a slightly better position and start, we could see it putting in a good effort.

This one looks very overpriced, probably because of the support for the fav. It has already shown improvement and can be competitive off this official rating range.

I'm taking a little chance. This one can get placed and I feel it's no superstar, but first time in a handicap off this mark looks a decent chance given its run style.

To me, this one still looks quite well-handicapped. I like female apprentices, as they are underbet, which I am sure is why it's not favourite.

Very fair odds, and I like the look of the horse, particularly the connections and record around here. The horse has not raced off a mark this wrong for a long time.

A very good horse, but the only thing that may catch it out is the finish, as it's a front-runner who has had a tendency to go off a little too quick.

The 2nd of my 3-year-olds to follow. It has raced once already this season, placing 4th at what looked the correct trip. While it does not look particularly well handicapped, it does just slip into the equation where it can be competitive.

With a mark of 61 and a 5 lb claimer, things cannot get much easier for the horse, who has shown 1m to seem to be its trip. The track may be an issue, as it's shown more on standard slow. But at the odds, it's a solid choice.

Well, it's never going to be a superstar, but at 6f it may well be what the horse is supposed to be doing. It had three runs to get a mark at 7f and 8f. Now it is at 6f and still unexposed, so it's a good time to catch these.

Whilst the favourite is heavily odds-on, I feel an opening OR of just 69 looks about right if the horse has matured and can act first time out. The yard seems to be applying headgear, so it's a little bit unknown but worth a small each-way bet.
