Thirsk Race 1 - Steve Poskitt's 60Th Birthday Restricted Maiden Stakes (GBB Race)
TAMAM STAR (2) missed the placings making first career appearance finishing fourth contesting a 1000m maiden at Musselburgh last Sunday. Has the benefit of racecourse experience and will be thereabouts. WAITING FOR ARCHIE (5) is the pick of the debutants. Bred by Lope Y Fernandez out of Azenora. The dam is a half-sister to two black-type placed horses. Worth considering. KODIAK BREEZE (4) is another debutant to look out for. Bred by Kodi Bear out of Caryatid. The dam is a full-sister to Listed Foundation Stakes winner Gabr. Potential. BLACK VELVET BOY (3) is a two-year-old by Soldier's Call and could have an impact first-up.
