Leicester Race 7 - Leicester Racecourse Ideal Self-Hire Wedding Venue Handicap
ARRAN (1) recorded a strong 4.5L third over 1200m at Windsor last time. Leading contender. WATCH AND SHOOT (4) finished fifth tackling 1630m at Windsor and warrants serious consideration. LORD ROXBY (2) led early attempting 1200m at Chester. Faded running 4.5L sixth. Maintains solid top-three claims. EXCELLENT ECHO (8) might fill fourth spot.

Second-up. First-up after a year 3rd of 7 at Windsor on July 14 over 1200m, 4.5 len behind Seraphim Angel with 62kg at $8. Previously second-up ran last of 15 at Goodwood in the G3 Molecomb Stakes on July 31 over 1000m, 30 len behind Big Mojo carrying 58.5kg at $29. Fitter for that run and will be tough to beat.

Second-up. First-up after nine months ran last of 11 at Newmarket (July) on June 26 over 1200m, 9 len behind Another Abbot carrying 61kg at $67. Previously second-up won by 0.8 len at Pontefract September 19 over 1200m defeating Counting Cards carrying 60.5kg at $17. Fitter but unlikely to threaten.
