Newmarket Race 4 - Racing Tv Hcp

FANCIULLA DEL WEST (2) reportedly lost a shoe when trailing last at Newbury latest (2000m). That followed a promising handicap debut tackling the same trip at Redcar during May. Cannot be written off yet. MISS GUINEVERE (4) has shown potential in three maiden outings at 1600m. Bred to appreciate the extra journey on offer here. Likely to improve. PORT DARWIN (5) might not be the most reliable however has shown a liking for undulating tracks. Scored narrowly at Brighton (2000m) two weeks ago and runners from this yard always warrant respect here. EMMA'S LETTER (3) was in winning form on penultimate start at Nottingham tackling the trip. Capable in this grade.

Racing well recently. Comes off a 30 day let-up. Last start ran second last in a small field at Lingfield on July 22 over 2000m, 3.5 len behind Almekarem carrying 57.5kg at $3.80. The start before that won by a neck at Nottingham on July 2 over 2000m defeating Liveinthelight carrying 60.5kg at $11. Meets a small field and looks tough to beat.
