Fontwell Park Race 7 - Starsportsbet.co.uk Open Maiden Nh Flat Race (Gbb Race)
CINQUENTA (2) looks promising after a pair of rules placings this season with a Chepstow 3200m third (winner has won twice since including at Listed level) and a good Warwick third New Years Eve. Likely player. The Spanish bred GAELIC PRIDE (4) secures eye-catching top jockey booking. Won a 4800m Irish point-to-point last November. Profiles well on paper. GENERAL BRIAR (5) represents a notable local stable. Indicated potential in Irish point-to-points. Worth a market check. CROSSGALES KING (3) warrants thought.
