ABOUT ONE MILE (7F ABT 216YDS) FOR FOUR YRS OLD AND UPWARDS
THE ROYAL ALEXANDRA CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL HANDICAP STAKES (CLASS 5)
Total prize fund £8800 x Owners Prize Money. 1st £3634, 2nd £1817, 3rd £908, 4th £454, 5th £227. (Penalty Value £4605.92) SS
LEADING COURSE TRAINER (17-22): T Carroll (51 wins from 410 runners, 12%) runs POETIC FORCE TRAINER-IN-FORM (LAST 14 DAYS): R Teal (3 wins from 13 runners, 23%) runs MICKS DREAM LONGEST TRAVELLER: POETIC FORCE trained by T Carroll, Cropthorne, 175 miles.
Preference is for MICKS DREAM, who put in a good shift when runner-up over 7f here last time and both the return to this trip and the addition of cheekpieces should help. Mostawaa looks dangerous on the back of a solid recent effort at Hamilton and he is second choice ahead of Nasim.
