Romford Bags Race 10 - Happy Birthday Poppy Stakes

PRELUDE (6) is a capable type and proved too classy last time to win by a nose at this track in a handy 25.17 beating Old Fort Monaco. Can make it back-to-back wins. KINGSROAD ROCKET (4) showed good early speed and led throughout to score his maiden two back then finished fourth last start and beaten 5 lengths at this track over 400m (25.33). Returns to the course where he won his maiden. Rates a winning chance on best. TEA LEAF THOR (5) had trap 5 and was game in defeat when only 1.3 lengths from Odas Mae Brown in second (25.01) at this track. Expected to be in this for a long way. NOREASON JESS (3) was in the money last start from this box and should feature again.

Racing well of late. In the money two starts back at this track then finished runner-up at his latest appearance in an A10 at this track over 400m (25.01). In solid form and can win without surprising.

Good effort after taking an early lead to score in an A11 by nose at this track over 400m (25.17). Makes plenty of appeal. Go close again.
