Bath Race 4

Elite Racing Club Novice Stakes (Gbb/Gbbplus Race)

Prize Money: $22,140

AL QAYED (1) made the frame in all three previous starts including when a neck third tackling track and trip. Taken to go one better. CHAPRON (4) debuted with a promising 4L third competing in a 1609m maiden at Sandown just over a month ago. Warrants thought as expected to be challenging for the win. AL THARA (2) indicated ability coming home 6.5L fourth contesting a 1609m maiden at Kempton on debut. Strong prospects switching to turf. FINGER CROSS (5) demonstrated significant improvement placing 2.5L fourth contesting a 1609m maiden at Kempton just under three weeks ago. Worth noting in this event.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run 2nd in a small field at this track on September 29 over 1600m, neck behind Divide And Conquer with 60.5kg at $4.50. The race before that raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 7 at Goodwood on September 8 over 1600m, slow going 4 len behind Quicken Away carrying 60.5kg at $23. Leading prospect.

Raced twice to date. At very big odds at debut, ran second last of 10 at Leicester on September 21 over 1400m, 16 len behind Poole Bay with 60.5kg at $81. Second-up ran second last in a small field at this track on September 29 over 1600m, 13 len behind Divide And Conquer carrying 60.5kg at $251. Form okay but prepared to risk here.
