Verdict

RULER TIME has been knocking on the door and can deservedly break his maiden. Gonna Fly will need to improve for the longer trip, but that's wholly possible.

3	$700,000 Not This Time gelding who found only subsequent Dewhurst winner too good on debut at Newbury last summer and has finished runner-up in 3 of his 4 starts since, latterly behind a useful one at Doncaster. 1¼m under these conditions should prove within range and he looks the one to beat. 1st Pick 3 Ruler Of Time (Usa) Jockey: Billy Loughnane Trainer: Charlie Appleby J: Billy Loughnane T: Charlie Appleby	100	-	-	-	84%

2	Made an impressive winning start in a 1m Newbury novice (heavy) last October. Went backwards in the Greenham on return (held Dante/Derby entries at the time) and while he concedes weight to a fairly useful sort here, the significant step up in trip should see him in a much better light. 2nd Pick 2 Gonna Fly (Ire) Jockey: Rossa Ryan Trainer: Ralph Beckett J: Rossa Ryan T: Ralph Beckett	94	-	-	-	39%

4	€28,000 foal, 125,000 gns yearling, Lope Y Fernandez filly. Half-sister to several winners, including smart 1¼m-21.6f winner Stratum and 2-y-o 7f-1m winner Star Player. Dam 8.3f winner who stayed 1½m. Makes some appeal on pedigree but is probably one for another day. Wears hood for debut. 3rd Pick 4 Lunella (Ire) Jockey: Jack Mitchell Trainer: Ollie Sangster J: Jack Mitchell T: Ollie Sangster	0	-	-	-	17%

Horse Racing Basic Terms

Firm

A dry turf course, equal to a ‘fast’ dirt track.

Main Track Only

A horse entered for main track only (MTO) is one hoping the weather forecast or track conditions will move the race off the turf course and onto the main track. They are scratched the morning of the race if the conditions stay dry.

Minus Pool

A pari-mutuel pool – typically a show pool - where one horse is so heavily bet that after deductions there is not enough money left to cover the prescribed minimum on each bet.
