Great Blasket was able to exploit a sliding handicap mark when on target under Elizabeth Gale at Chepstow and he merits the utmost respect from 3lb higher. However, a chance can be taken on LADY OF ARABIA, who made a pleasing return at Haydock last month. Eve Johnson Houghton's mare could take a step forward, especially with the benefit of Jack Nicholls' 5lb claim. Chalk Mountain continues to run well in defeat and is unlikely to be far away. |
GREAT BLASKET has a pretty decent career strike rate with 8 wins in just 28 career runs, with 6 of those coming on the turf. That includes a game half a length success at Chepstow last time out when well fancied in the market. That was in a class 5 contest; therefore, he does take a small step up in grade here, but given the fact he has got his head in front and is only 3 lb higher in the weights for that success, he can go in and win once again here. Chalk Mountain has been running well of late without winning, running off the same mark as when he was 3rd at Kempton last time; he can run another good race and place. Lady Of Arabia was a very good 3rd last time out after a pretty lengthy break off the track; she can come on for the run but might have to settle for another 3rd place finish here. |
