Bath Race 5 - Betwright Bet The Wright Way Ebf Restricted Novice Stakes (Gbb Race) (Div 2)
THE WICKED WOLF (3) left his debut effort behind when third over 1400m at Chelmsford second up. That was a promising effort to build on and he can get off the mark now stepping back up to 1600m. Similar comments apply to JUST A GAMBLER (1). Showed little first time out at Kempton. Tough to ignore following a decent third-place finish tackling this trip at Pontefract. Andrew Balding-trains AL ZA'AMA (5) who warrants a second look debuting under Oisin Murphy representing notable connections. GRINDLETON (6) finished one spot behind the second mentioned in that Pontefract race and can be included.

Third race start today. When well in the market at debut, ran last of 13 at Kempton Park All Weather on September 5 over 1600m, 26 len behind Timber Twelve with 60.5kg at $4.50. Second-up 3rd of 9 at Pontefract on September 25 over 1600m, 2.5 len behind Gaspacho with 59.5kg at $15. Coming along nicely and should be right in the mix again.
