Southwell Race 3 - Read Meg Nicholls' Blog At Betmgm.co.uk Fillies' Handicap

LIGHTNING TOUCH (2) is a seven-start maiden who most recently finished 2.25L third over 2500m at Newcastle All Weather. Cheek pieces applied for the first time and could be thereabouts. AIMING HIGH (3) settled to the back then came home powerfully to score by 1.75L over 2400m in a class five handicap at Lingfield last time. Likely to measure up again. ROMANTIC SPIRIT (6) went close just missing out last time tackling 1900m at Wolverhampton in this grade. Likely to play a major role. GOLD PENNY (4) finished 9L away in sixth on her latest appearance attempting 2300m at Great Yarmouth. Down in standard.

Form hard to fault. Comes off a 52 day let-up. At the latest run won by 1.75 len at Lingfield All Weather September 8 over 2400m defeating Meleri carrying 63.5kg at $5. Before that got back early 3rd in a small field at Salisbury on August 14 over 2400m, 10 len behind Favorite Memory with 59kg at $26. Confidence high and should be in the finish again.
