A class of race which I have had some success in this season so far
And should be a good source of winners if we all pool our thoughts :)

Its going to be a shortie but Dougal in the 2.05 at Bath should oblige tomorrow.
Ran a good race first time up at Windsor(The Zebedee's have seemed to need there first run)behind Justice Good who finished 6th in a decent Newbury maiden in April.

I'm keeping an eye out for Cape Caster. Ran a strange race at Donny when slow to get away but finished really well. The winner has let the form down since and the 3rd has won a nothing race at Kempton so I'm a little bit worried about the form. Cape Caster has run again since but was sent off as an odds on favourite so I wasn't getting involved that day. Finished 2nd last time out, beaten a length. 3 starts so far, finished 3rd, 2nd, 2nd.
 
Yes noticed that one too ,Possibley a step up in trip to suit.

Belle Fille 5.35 Ascot looks a likely type tomorrow
5/16 beaten 1 1/4 lengths last time
6th and 7th winning since and the 4th running a fine race at Chester today.

Only just saw that other day. I haven't seen any of Chester and just glanced at results. Gives the form a boost then and more reason to keep an eye on Cape Caster.

Some of the maiden stats (especially 2 yr olds) are quite informative. I was at Beverley on BH Monday and noticed Tim Easterbys dreadful record there with 2 yr olds, something like 2 winners from 102 runners. I was talking to someone there who said Kevin Ryan feels his 2 year olds are very forward this year and will do well first time out.

Be Bold, 5.35 Chepstow
Going to be short
The form of his 2 maidens looks strong though and should be up to this one.
 
Cape Caster runs in the last at Newmarket. It was 7-1 last night, just about to see what price it is now.
