Bath Race 6 - Stakes Are Always High Hcp
BLUE HERO (4) notched up the tenth win of his career over course and distance scoring by 0.5L a fortnight ago. Not harshly treated by the assessor and back into a handicap rates highly. HAVANA CLUB (3) continues a long losing streak on turf and ran with promise at Windsor two and a half weeks ago. Not taken lightly representing a stable in fair form. WESTON COURT (7) finished second at Chepstow attempting 1400m last week beaten 0.75L and now going back up in trip must prove that was no fluke. THAI PRINCESS (6) was given wind surgery before finishing well held at Chepstow last month. Needs more and is worth a market check.

Second-up. First-up after five months ran second last of 8 at Nottingham on June 25 over 1700m, 11 len behind Perfidia with 58kg at $23. Previously second-up ran last of 12 at Kempton Park All Weather on May 28 2025 over 1600m, 12 len behind Stella Hogan with 59kg at $17. Will take a lot from that run and is in the mix.

Back from a spell. Only had one start last campaign ran last in a small field at this track on May 13 over 1600m, 33 len behind Darzah with 64kg at $301. When resuming last campaign ran last of 13 at Kempton Park All Weather on January 14 over 1600m, 17 len behind Jazzy Baby carrying 64.5kg at $301. Doubt she will have much to offer first up.
