GUEST STAR MIMOSET TO STEAL YARMOUTH SHOW

PLENTY of the usual Yarmouth suspects line up for the opening At The Races App Market Movers Handicap, but it’s Rae Guest’s (left) handicap debutant MIMOSET (1.35) that catches the eye here.

Rae trained Mimoset’s granddam Millyant to win three Group races, and the majority of her offspring have also been through his hands, including Mimoset’s dam Fatal

Attraction and full-sister

Mirza who emulated her dam by winning the Prix du Petit Couvert at Longchamp.

While Fatal Attraction was a rare failure on the track, she has already produced four individual winners, the best of whom is the Group 3 placed Take A Deep Breath.

Suit

The 7f on good ground ought to suit Mimoset, and her second to the potentially smart Fashion Love at Kempton was fine, and she built on that when third of four at Chepstow last time, despite not handling the track well and the handicapper could have given her another pound or two based on it.

A mark of 61 was drawn, and given she’s bred to much better than 0-60 class, and is open to stacks of improvement, she looks a solid bet.

There’s no obvious pace in the National Horseracing Museum Supported By ARC

Handicap, so it should pay to side with one likely to be up with the pace early on and George

Margarson’s representative SPIRITED GUEST (5.05) fits the bill nicely.

He ran really well from the front here in May, splitting the improving pair of Air To Air and Tamaska, and although two subsequent efforts have been poor, he came back two weeks ago to put in a much better effort over a trip on the short side for him at Ascot.

Close

He’s now 3lb lower than that good C&D effort, gets a chance to lead on a track he likes, and if he can build on the Ascot run, he should go close.

Magical Effect won easily at Catterick last week, but that was largely down to a very clever ride by Jason Hart, and while Ruth Carr’s gelding has the talent to follow up under a penalty, he is just as likely to throw in a stinker after that standout effort.

As such, he needs to be taken on in the Solutions 4 Cleaning Apprentice Handicap at Pontefract.

Wide draws aren’t as inconvenienced as much as was once the case at Pontefract, so stall 14 may not be the kiss of death for top-weight DANDY SPIRIT (1.42), and he has a better chance here than the market suggests; his Pontefract form this season, reads two wins from two starts in this class.
