Wetherby Race 2 - Bet With The On-Course Bookmakers Novice Stakes (GBB Race)
PRINCLING (8) represents notable connections. Bids to turn two runner-up finishes into a win after placing second on debut at Kempton Park AW then filling the same spot at Newmarket (Rowley). Can go one better. ERVANI (3) is the pick of the debutants. Bred by Lucky Vega out of Listed Finale Stakes third Eytarna. This half-brother to G2 Blandford Stakes winner Eziyra and Listed Platinum Stakes winner Eshera is worth considering. UNCHARTEDTERRITORY (9) missed out on the placings providing most recent appearance when fourth at Ayr last September. Interesting after a break. OATHBOUND (6) is a stablemate to the top pick and cannot be discounted.
