Newmarket Race 1 - Bet365 Handicap

There could be more to come from the unexposed recent Wolverhampton maiden winner DOUBLE RUSH (12) who looked raw winning on seasonal reappearance sixteen days ago. Interesting that connections have pitched him into this making handicap debut. Consider. Charlie Appleby trains AL MISBAR (9) who might be suited by dropping to 1200m and cannot be ignored on his first start since finishing a good second in a handicap over 1400m here during October. THE DRAGON KING (5) won a track and trip handicap when last seen six and a half months ago. Remains unexposed. Handicap debutant DEFENCE MINISTER (2) is interesting down in grade having finished last of six attempting the G1 Middle Park Stakes here last season.

Second-up. First-up after six months favourite; scored a big 4 len win at Wolverhampton March 31 over 1200m defeating French Sand carrying 58.5kg at $1.70. Previously second-up second last in a small field at Haydock Park on September 5 over 1200m, 1.75 len behind Defence Minister carrying 58kg at $11. Great chance to make it two in a row. Looks hard to beat again.
