Starliner has been knocking on the door in recent months and, racing off the same mark as his latest second over slightly shorter here, another bold showing is forecast. However, he may have to play second fiddle once more, with BUBBLES WONKY edging the vote. The Lope De Vega gelding caught the eye when fifth on his seasonal bow at Doncaster and is expected to take the necessary step forward. Braes Of Doune is also noted. |
BAMBURGH has shown winning ability in all three starts, should suit this step up in trip on handicap debut after a gelding op and, being a full-brother to 1000 Guineas winner Mother Earth, carries a level of potential that suggests a Class 4 handicap should be well within his compass. While Bubbles Wonky has some questions to answer having failed to convert market support on several occasions, he made an eyecatching return when sent off favourite following a gelding op - suffered trouble in running - and can contend stepped up to a feasible trip. Bodorgan was well beaten in a handicap over 12f on his final start last season, looking to have stamina issues on soft ground, but was consistent before that, steps back to a more suitable trip and has run well fresh in the past. |
