Thirsk Race 3 - British Ebf Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)
LORD D'OR (5) was sixth making first career appearance at Kempton Park AW then improved to finish runner-up losing out by 0.75L attempting a novice race at the York Dante Festival. May go one better. WOHEELA (10) is the pick of those debuting. Bred by Lope De Vega out of G3 Premio Regina Elena Dimensione winner Mi Raccomando. Worth giving serious consideration. FOZZIE (4) failed to turn three consecutive placings into a win when fourth contesting a maiden at Beverley last time. Holds placed form at this venue. Anticipated to be thereabouts. BRIGHT MOONLIGHT (9) represents notable connections and could have an impact racing first-up.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run 4th of 9 at Beverley on June 16 over 1500m, 2 len behind Lorca's Waltz carrying 60.5kg at $3.80. The start before that ran second last in a small field at Pontefract on June 2 over 2000m, 13 len behind Alma Latina carrying 58.5kg at $19. Capable of sharp improvement.

Second-up. First start settled back and ran on when 6th of 12 at Kempton Park All Weather on August 6 over 1400m, 11 len behind Looka carrying 60.5kg at $13. Returned from break 2nd of 7 at York on May 15 over 1600m, 0.8 len behind Portcullis with 58.5kg at $17. Fitter for that run and will be tough to beat.

Comes here off a 43-day let-up. At the latest run ran second last of 9 at Nottingham on May 19 over 1700m, 15 len behind Rosa Inglesa carrying 60kg at $4.30. The start before that 2nd of 9 at Beverley on May 4 over 1500m, 1.0 len behind Lyrical Song carrying 57kg at $10. Better than the last run suggests.

Second-up. First start ran on from midfield; 3rd of 10 at Haydock Park on September 4 over 1400m, 2 len behind Tiger Power with 60.5kg at $7. Returned from break ran last in a small field at Nottingham on June 11 over 1700m, on a slow track; 5.5 len behind Decade Of Time carrying 59kg at $8. No surprise to see him in the placings.

Jumped at big odds at debut, 3rd of 12 at Carlisle on June 9 over 1800m, 4 len behind Turret with 59kg at $29. Has upside and may pay to follow.

By Lope De Vega out of Mi Raccomando on debut. Purchased for GNS 150,000 (Tattersalls 2024 October Yearling Sale Book 2). Will pay to watch for a betting push.
