Epsom Downs Race 1 - Sporting Times Sri Lanka Apprentice Handicap

ETRETAT (6) took a big step forward on Saturday scoring by 1.75L a lower level 2000m handicap at Newcastle AW. Leading chance. HIS FINEST HOUR (2) delivered a 1L success among this company attempting the journey at Newbury two outings back. Ticks plenty of boxes. RISEN AGAIN (4) ran well earlier this month producing a smart third tackling a similar level 2000m handicap at Beverley. Holds claims. BEARAWAY (3) might feature.

Form hard to fault. Last start in a small field at Newbury on July 18 over 2400m, 2.25 len behind Golden Handshake with 60kg at $5.50. Before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 1.0 len at Newbury July 3 over 2000m defeating Telepathic with 62.5kg at $9.50. Encouraging effort last start. Well placed and sure to be in the finish.

Back from a spell. Only had one start last campaign 9th of 12 at Kempton Park All Weather on April 15 over 2400m, 12 len behind Federated carrying 60kg at $15. When resuming last campaign 6th of 11 at Nottingham on November 6 over 2050m, slow going 6 len behind Diffident Spirit with 61kg at $26. Hard to recommend.
