Guaranteed Odds At David Lucas Bookmakers Handicap

Possibly not the most straightforward but it was a big run when second of 15 at Salisbury (6f, good; front pair clear) last Thursday; that was a career best and subsequent 3lb nudge could have been worse; previous third over 5f showed this trip is no bother and he's considered.

Tends to lead; 0-10 and consistency has been an issue but she went close on AW at Southwell (5f) in March and gave it another good go when third back there (6f) three weeks ago; makes first start on turf since her 2yo debut.

Gelded after three qualifying runs and it was a big jolt of improvement when scoring at Dundalk (5f, AW; first-time tongue-tie) on his handicap debut four weeks ago; 7lb rise but he did that cosily and could start rising through the ranks.

Gelded over the winter and it was a fine start for Christopher Mason when neck second of 13 at Windsor (6f, good to firm) this month; likely has the pace to cope with this drop back to 5f and he's firmly in calculations.

Barely rateable on his first two starts (1m) but wasn't totally disgraced when dropped down to 6f at Chelmsford for third qualifying run; has been gelded ahead of this turf/handicap debut and any market support should be heeded.
