CLASS DROPPER CONSECRATED NAPPED
⭕ 3.50 Newbury Consecrated is napped to land the feature class 2 on the Newbury card.
The William Haggas trained runner made an impressive winning debut here over seven furlongs when beating Breckenbrough and was then upped in class for a Listed contest at York where she finished fourth having been sent off favourite.
She was doing her best work at the end, so should relish the slightly longer trip today and of course the drop back in class.
The Betdaq Betting Exchange points to the biggest danger coming from Blue Bolt and I agree. Trained by Andrew Balding, Blue Bolt was only a modest fifth on debut at Southwell when sent off a 10/11 favourite but improved for the experience when a four length winner at Windsor when relishing the same good to firm ground she gets today.
Colin Keane rides in his new capacity as lead jockey for Juddmonte.
PHYSICS TO PASS EXAMINATION
⭕ 4.25 Newbury Twisting Physics brings the most potential but the least experience to the table here.
The Paul & Oliver Cole trained runner starts handicap company off a workable mark of 84 which takes into account his three promising starts to date including a win at Southwell.
He comes into this on the back of a good second at Carlisle and the stable’s last five runners have finished 13212.
At much bigger odds I’ll include Grand Karat who has improved since being gelded – judged by his all-weather form. If he can translate that improvement to the turf he could be interesting at double figure odds.
PARAGON ANOTHER FOR MURPHY
⭕ 8.00 Chelmsford Oisin Murphy is riding evening winners for fun at the moment (four-timer at Windsor on Monday) and can land this with Paragon for Andrew Balding.
He’s been running consistently in his last three starts but the key tonight might well be the step up in distance from a mile to ten furlongs.
He can see off the challenge from Harryella who comes from the in form stable of James Fanshawe but was a beaten favourite at Wolverhampton last time out.
