Beverley Race 2 - Young Guns Nursery
COURT LEGEND (5) built upon a good second making handicap debut landing a nursery here (1500m) by 0.5L latest. Not unduly punished at the weights for that heavy-ground success and looks the one to beat again. PRINCE KAMEO (1) landed successive wins the last twice since raised to 1600m making all when scoring at Thirsk by 1L eleven days ago. Will take some stopping. HIGH CALIBRE (2) stepped forward finishing 1.25L second at Newmarket on nursery debut last month. Had the run of the race there however front pair pulled clear. Could progress. EMERALD BAY (4) sees the headgear switched again after emerging second at Carlisle last time (1600m). Consistent.

Chasing a hat-trick. At the latest run won by 1.0 len at Thirsk on September 5 over 1600m defeating Akaraka carrying 59kg at $9. Before that won by 0.8 len at Lingfield All Weather on August 27 over 1600m defeating Whiskey Galore carrying 61kg at $5. Form good for this and is expected to run well.
