    Surprisingly not being covered live on ATTHERACES, but covered in all betting shops of course and the usual mix of Maidens and competitive h'caps. Card starts with an unusual event over just the 4f -

    10.00 - Going with 3 in the opener. Don't like those with form at the prices, so going with all debutantes -

    ORATORINA at 7's
    TOMBOLA at 8's
    FASHION SCOOP at 33's

    11.10 - Again going with 3, with this time just the 2 unraced -

    SOCRATES at 10's
    WHITEWATER RAPIDS at 14's
    BURNING LOVE at 33's

    11.45 - SHANDY - Green on all 3 starts to date and back off a 27 wk break today. Does look to have plenty of ability however and happy to take his fitness on trust at 12's

    12.20 - FRANCO and COME ON SONNY - Franco is on 3rd run back after and was much improved in latest. Remains lightly raced and rates a solid EW chance at 10's. COS is a newcomer to the region and his best Kenilworth form does read well. Back to a winning mark and hopefully been refreshed by the 11 wk break, so the early 16's does look a shade generous.

    12.55 - SAINT MARCO - Seems to be holding his form nicely and a repeat of any of his last 5 efforts has him very competitive. Won off a slow pace last time and not much speed this field, so hopefully can go in again at 5's.

    1.30 - BONJOUR BABY - Not exactly been shouting " future winner " recently, but the blinkers are back and a top jockey is engaged, so not without hope at 80's.

    2.05 - AIDEN'S PORSCHE - Showed improved form when making steady headway in her efforts over a mile and this rise in distance should suit. Remains lightly raced and looks a reasonable alternative to the top 2 in the market ( 6/5 and 2/1 ) at 16's. LAST SUMMER won't mind the bit of cut in the ground and for me is the likeliest of the " rags " at 66's

    Oratorina and Tombola, the 2 best backed ( both pretty much halved in price ) but only Tombola showed anything, ending up 3rd. FS's was a nice introduction to racing at a price and should be competitive when upped to 5f.

    Couple of narrow / annoying 4th's for SHANDY and AP. Decent 80/1 place for BB, though at 12 lengths up turning in a real shock looked possible. Did get a win on the day from SAINT MARCO
