Racehorse Ownership From 25 At racingclub.com Apprentice Handicap

Third when beaten two lengths last time in first-time headgear, going close to his best off a mark of 74, and is now just a pound higher; handles today's distance and conditions and has the form to make his presence felt — the main risk is a competitive ten-runner field.

A modest sixth on his latest outing and without a win in his last five starts; beaten six lengths when returning to Britain most recently and the figures remain unimpressive, though he is still relatively early in his career and there is just about time for him to progress.

Took advantage of a drop in the ratings to win a handicap at Salisbury nine days ago, doing so comfortably with Harry Vigors's three-pound claim reducing much of her penalty; versatile in terms of ground and trip and looks a logical follow-up candidate.

Close second at Doncaster last time, just half a length behind the winner off this exact mark; handles a range of trips and ground conditions, though the trainer is currently without a winner and he needs to settle to show his best.

Third last time when the going proved a touch testing, but most effective on a sounder surface; consistent at ten to twelve furlongs and has the form to go well here, though the same mark makes this no easy task.
