Southwell Race 6 - Sky Sports Racing Virgin 512 Handicap
WHAT FOOLS BELIEVE (5) was successful two weeks ago over course and distance. Connections now adopt a pair of cheekpieces to bring about further improvement. She looks hard to oppose. SAFE HARBOR (2) ran with credit in a trio of starts last season. Might prove vulnerable to fitter rivals on return. DELINQUENT (1) needs more based on the third placed effort here two and a half weeks ago. Drawn well and if the market speaks in favour then prospects are enhanced. KALOKALO (4) disappointed on the final attempt last season when a beaten favourite. Freshened and holds every chance under Saffie Osborne.
