A BET NOT TO BE MIST
BLUE MIST (8.15) is well worth a punt in the competitive 32Red Handicap at Kempton.
Roger Charlton’s gelding has shown some smart form during his short career and improved again when slamming
Kitaabaat at Ascot. The son of Makfi can follow up for his skilled connections with further progress expected. William Muir’s SECRET
AGENT (5.45) looks lethal in the opening six-furlong handicap. The gelding is a useful sprinter on his day and shaped like his turn was imminent when chasing home Top Boy over course and distance.
JUMEIRAH STREET (9.15) is the path to profit in the closing 32Red App Handicap.
Jason Tate’s filly enhanced her cracking course record when second to Harbour Approach last time and can go one better.
GOOD EFFORT (3.05) can outclass his rivals in the feature Wreake Handicap at Leicester.
Ismail Mohammed’s colt ran a stormer when second to
Mankib in Listed company at Newbury and can take full advantage of this drop in class.
PURPLE ROCK (5.10) looks solid in division 1 of the Stewards Handicap. Gay Kelleway’s gelding has slipped to a decent mark and can build on his good second to in-form
Lyrica’s Lion at Nottingham. Division 2 can go to upwardly mobile CHANNEL PACKET (5.40). Michael Appleby’s fouryear-old is proven over 1m 2f and is on for a hat-trick after cosily beating Locommotion over seven furlongs here last week.
CRESSWELL LEGEND (3.25) can maintain Kim Bailey’s flying start to the new Jump Season at Hereford. The seven-year-old was a quality staying hurdler and should make an even better chaser after losing narrowly to classy Cubomania at Perth.
The Gloucester handler can add the three-miler with
COMMODORE BARRY (3.55) who has made rapid headway and beat strong yardstick Angel
Of Harlem at Southwell. Colin Tizzard is ready to strike with ON DEMAND (4.30). The ex-useful hurdler has taken well to fences and can come on plenty for her easy defeat of Risk
And Roll at Newton Abbot. Saturday’s Champions’ Day meeting at Ascot is likely to be run on soft ground after recent heavy rain at the venue.
