Racing Post Celebrates Thake-and-Smith's 60th Birthdays Apprentice Handicap |
£4,187 |
1m 7f 218y |
Standard to slow |
Polytrack |
Strong |
The hat-trick seeking Green Team is sure to prove popular in his current heart and another bold bid looks likely. However, a 2lb nudge up in the ratings and switch to Polytrack demand more from Ian Williams' charge. With that in mind, it could be worth chancing MOEL ARTHUR, who was denied a clear run and lost all chance when finishing seventh over C&D last month. Zivaniya is also noted on the back of a 127-day break. |
ZIVANIYA has to bounce back from a poor run last time in February but that came in a class 4 event and he can exploit the return to this grade over his optimum conditions (two of three career wins over course and distance). Hugo Palmer's gelding likes to control things from the front and should be able to again here in this small field. He should prove tough to pass. Lunar Power and Moel Arthur look the biggest dangers. The former has dropped to a very threatening mark and showed signs last time of finding his level again having tumbled a stone in the handicap since last tackling this course and distance in September just four starts back, and he can give the selection most to do. Moel Arthur, who has been in a much more consistent vein of form, is yet to win over this course and distance but he has been placed a few times and is entitled to reach the frame again ahead of the hat-trick seeking Green Team, a huge danger on form but with serious doubts over this trip (yet to place in six attempts at 2m or beyond) |
