THIRD RACE 3.00
ONE MILE ABOUT FOUR FURLONGS (11F ABT 198YDS) FOR FOUR YRS OLD AND UPWARDS
THE ROY ROCKET AMATEUR JOCKEYS’ HANDICAP STAKES (CLASS 6)
Total prize fund £6200 x Owners Prize Money. 1st £2677, 2nd £1339, 3rd £669, 4th £335, 5th £167. (Penalty Value £3079.54) A SS
LEADING COURSE TRAINER (17-22): G L Moore (23 wins from 157 runners, 15%) runs STORMINGIN TRAINER-IN-FORM (LAST 14 DAYS): A Watson (9 wins from 59 runners, 15%) runs LET HER LOOSE FANCY THAT: J Berry won this race in 2016 and 2018. The stable runs HIDDEN PEARL today.
LONGEST TRAVELLER: NEVENDON trained by A Dunn, Wellington, 163 miles.
Preference is for LET HER LOOSE who was the only one to get near the favourite when runner-up off this career-low mark at Haydock recently and she’s entitled to come on for that run given that she was returning from a 6-month break. Hidden Pearl did the job well at Yarmouth and should be in the thick of things once again, while Geelong is best of the rest.

LONGEST TRAVELLER: GALLANT LION trained by T Carroll, Cropthorne, 175 miles.
This represents a good opportunity for ETON BLUE who bumped into an improver from the Sir Mark Prescott yard on his recent reappearance here and this drop back in trip is unlikely to pose a problem. Come On John has been in good form of late and is the clear main danger ahead of Feyha and handicap debutant Bodygroove.

SIR WINSTON arrives on the up so this C&D winner is fancied to quickly resume winning ways off just a 1lb higher mark than when a very good Chester second last time. Granary Queen landed this contest 12 months ago and is again much respected along with course-winner Poetic Force, who didn’t enjoy the rub of the green when sixth at Windsor raced alone when fifth of 6 in handicap at Goodwood (6f, good to firm) 16 days ago.
