Marco can take it to the Max

- By Reg Moore sport@sundaypost.com

Marco Botti’s Maximilian Caesar was going further and further away from rivals, when winning at Yarmouth.

That was over the seven-furlong distance, and if ever a two-yearold would improve for further, it is him.

Up to a mile at Windsor, and with the winner’s penalty set at just 5lb, this looks like another good opportunit­y

John Spearing has managed to squeeze two recent wins from It’s How We Roll, a modest but totallywil­ling animal.

His latest, over course and distance, incurs a 4lb penalty, but that is negated by young amateur, Lewis Kent’s claim.

Sir Mark Prescott’s Heat And Dust is the likely favourite, but he’s been beaten at today’s Class 5 level, after two Class 6 wins.

Pam Sly’s Cubanista has been hit with a 9lb hike for winning a Class 6 handicap at Yarmouth, which seems harsh.

Perhaps Henry Candy’s Ring Of Light can improve this time, after his second at Newmarket was a solid step forward.
