Leicester Race 2 - Alan & Sarah Laughterloft Legends Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)
WOODVALE (1) won on debut by 0.5L after being slow away from the stalls. Strong pedigree while jockey and trainer are in form. Certainly the one to beat despite a penalty. HAVANA FLASH (5) was highly tried in the early part of her career attempting the Woodcote at Epsom and a Listed race at Sandown. Finished third at Chester after a break latest with the added tongue tie. Returning to quicker ground and dropping back in trip makes her the biggest danger. PAPHOS (3) showed greenness last time despite that being his second start. Beaten 3.25L but form of the race is strong. TIME TELLER (4) showed some promise debuting and will improve.

Lining up for just third start. At debut, ran second last of 9 at Chester on September 11 over 1200m, 11 len behind Donna Beauty carrying 60.5kg at $23. Second-up ran last of 9 at Ripon on September 26 over 1200m, 35 len behind Bulletsnap with 60.5kg at $101. Doesn't look one of the major players.
