20's into 10's, hoping for the best in half hour.A mention for a horse in the first race at Leicester in the amateur riders handicap tomorrow, the 5:40... CAESER THE GAESER..... won its first handicap start at Carlisle last year on good to firm going. Has since slipped down in the handicap after poor runs when being held up. Cheek pieces were applied last time and this brought about a better run. He faded in the final furlong over a mile after being on the pace which was a complete change to prior runs, so the trainer sensibly drops him to seven furlongs here, with a drop down to class 6 level too, running on a nice low mark of 52. He is a left field bet, (no idea what odds will be available yet), so I wouldn't put anyone off an each way. I expect him to finish nearer first than last.

Doctor Parkes-6.40 Wolver. 9/1
Think this old horse has a decent chance tonight, has had just 3 runs on the tapeta surface at Wolver but he does seem to have got better as he's got older over 6fs rather than 5fs. His last run here was a decent 6th in a C4 behind Rich Again btn just 3 3/4 lengths, didn't seem to be overly hard ridden that day but still only a couple of lengths behind Available(won sat). Previously at Kempton btn just over a length in 7th behind tonights fav Eljaddaaf, there is a 12lbs turnaround in the weights with that horse tonight taking into account the apprentice allowances, also has a 6lbs pull with Desert Strike for a nose. Pandar is 10lbs higher than his last win on turf and is 0-5 on the AW. City of Angkor Wat was behind the selection at Windsor but has run 2 good races since and has a chance. Piazon has his 1st run for J Butler after being out of form for K Ryan, will pass over that one. Doctor Parkes has a plum draw in 1 and i don't think he'll be far away. Think when most folk look at the weight pull with the fav he'll probably shorten up but looks like connections are letting his price drift at the moment. Generally 9/1 with WH a standout 12/1.
