Chepstow Race 2 - Bet365 Gbb Restricted Mdn Stakes (Gbb Race)
DAKOTA BRAVE (1) improved sharply when third beaten just over 0.5L tackling 1400m at Newcastle most recently. That close effort sets the standard. TEMPLE COURT (4) produced another better display finishing fourth trying 1100m at Bath providing second appearance. Longer journey could unlock further progress. Main danger. LUSHILL (8) stepped forward from debut to place attempting 1200m here last time. Extra distance looks suitable and warrants serious consideration. GOLDEN OASIS (7) showed more when fifth tackling this trip at Kempton All Weather on latest outing. Added experience should help and cannot be discounted.

Third race start today. When well in the market at debut, ran second last of 13 at Newmarket (Rowley) on May 15 over 1200m, 13 len behind O'gorman carrying 57.5kg at $4.50. Last start 4th of 11 at Bath on June 5 over 1100m, 6 len behind Bill The Bull carrying 60.5kg at $11. The longer journey should suit so watch for sharp improvement.

First-starter by Walzertakt out of Aspidistra. Hard to recommend without a market push.
