Monmore Race 1 - Ladbrokes Gold Cup 2026- Heat 1
HEADFORD DANE (4) is progressing well and looks close to another win after hitting the frame last run (28.70) at Monmore. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card last start despite being beaten. Likely to feature again. GROUCHOS GREGOR (1) finished well back at Sheffield last time when a 7 length fifth (29.60) but recorded best time of the card when winning three back. Comes out of a hot form race last start. Shapes as one to consider. BEHEMOTH (6) was a OR1 winner two back then out of the placings latest at Hove but moves to Box 6 this time where he has performed well. Expected to bounce back to best. ARTHUR BITTER (3) missed the frame latest (28.92) when sixth over 480m at Dunstall Park in a OR3. Yet to taste defeat in two runs from this trap.
