Newbury Race 2

Home-Start West Berkshire Maiden Stakes (Gbb Race)

Prize Money: $22,140

LEONE ALATO (8) represents notable connections. Placed third on debut at Newmarket (July). Will be thereabouts once more. DARK SHORE (3) improved from a debutante fifth at Ascot before placing second at Ffos Las last time. Wears a first-time hood to go one better. LAW COURT (7) finished fourth racing first up at Newbury. Quickly turned out and could make the placings. BECAUSE WE CAN (2) is the pick of those debuting. Bred by Advertise out of Kaprice and is a half-brother to two-time Listed runner-up Hold A Dream. Worth considering.

Raced twice to date. When well in the market at debut, 5th of 7 at Ascot on July 26 over 1200m, 6 len behind Words Of Truth carrying 58kg at $5. Last start made ground from midfield; 2nd of 10 at Ffos Las on August 13 over 1500m, 1.5 len behind McMurray carrying 60.5kg at $5.50. Well placed and gets his chance to break through.
