TAKE A DEEP BREATH

- BY GARRY OWEN

WREN’S BREATH (3.25) can soar for Henry de Bromhead in the Sceptre Stakes at Doncaster.

The filly showed class and guts to deny More Beautiful in a six-furlong Listed event at Naas. The three-year-old was staying on strongly that day so she can bag this Group 3 over seven.

SED MAARIB (1.45) can shade the trappy Hippo Pro Nursery for thriving Roger Varian. The juvenile built on some creditable efforts when hacking up from Bababobo at Beverley. The colt is nicely unexposed so he can deny some promising rivals on his handicap debut.

FIRST DANCE (2.50) can put her best foot forward in the Leger Legends Classified Stakes. Tom Tate’s mare was just denied a hat-trick by the useful Mille Miglia over 1m 2f at Newmarket. The sevenyear-old should still be in peak form so she can resume winning ways down in trip.

Adam West’s LIVE IN THE MOMENT (4.00) rates a value bet in the Scarboroug­h Stakes.

The sprinter ran a stormer when chinned by Copper Knight in a red-hot handicap at York.

The gelding is open to plenty of progress so he can add this tricky Listed contest to his CV.

ANMAAT (4.30) is worth punting in the competitiv­e

Julie Parkes Handicap. Owen Burrows’ colt recorded another career best when hammering Celtic Art at Bath. There is plenty more to come from this smart type who can shrug off an 8lb penalty.

BOMB PROOF (5.00) looks a typical James Fanshawe improver in the closing sprint. The gelding showed benefits of wind surgery when second to Tyger Bay at Kempton and should go one better on Turf.

DAL HORRISGLE (3.05) can stay on rise in the Wayne Contracts Hurdle at Uttoxeter. Alan King’s gelding can defy a 8lb hike for routing Socks Off at Market Rasen.

MONTANNA (3.40) can maintain Peter Bowen’s decent run in staying handicap chase. The in-form gelding can make light of a 5lb rise for slamming Ballyellis at Sedgefield.

JIMMY THE DIGGER (4.10) can stretch his unbeaten record over fences to two for shrewd Henry Daly.
