RACING Back Deal For More Dollars

DEAL A DOLLAR can reel in the cash in the Betway Handicap at Wolverhampton.

The impeccably-bred four-yearold has yet to live up his excellent pedigree being by Frankel out of Group Two winner Cape Dollar, but he still has time on his side.

Having spent his first two seasons with Sir Michael Stoute, for whom he won two races, owner Saeed Suhail moved him to David Simcock’s stable.

While it was only from one Newmarket yard to another, it is a different environment and different regime.

Since his switch, Deal A Dollar has raced three times, between a mile and a half and two miles, as the Simcock team get to know the horse.

There were definite signs of a form revival over the shorter trip at Kempton last time out, when he was third to the reopposing Sky Defender but the selection is 5lb better off.

He sticks to that distance and it can be rewarded with a victory.

■ Dear Power can get her threeyear-old campaign off to the best possible start in the Ladbrokes Where The Nation Plays Fillies’ Novice Stakes.

Roger Varian’s daughter of Acclamation wasted no time in getting off the mark on her debut at

Chelmsford in early August, and she can be excused her flop in a Group Three at Salisbury the following month.

She was never really going and it may just be that it was too much too soon for her. Dropping her down significantly in class for her reappearance seems the logical thing to get her confidence back.

■ Johnny Reb got off the mark last time out and can go in again via the Heed Your Hunch At Betway Handicap.

James Ferguson’s charge showed plenty of dash to make all, and there is every reason to think with that first win under his belt she can prove just as effective dropped back to six furlongs.

■ Secrete Stream got back on track with a narrow success at Wetherby last time and can repeat the trick on her return to the West Yorkshire venue in the Join Racing TV Now Handicap Hurdle.

Ruth Jefferson has had a far from smooth run with the 11-year-old, who has been prone to training troubles throughout his career.

However, he regained winning ways on his second start following a 239-day absence. All appears to have gone well in the interim to suggest he can oblige again.
