Richmond Race 12 - Ladbrokes Blackbook
MISTER ANATOLY (1) was fresh up last time at this track where he finished seventh (23.15) in a NG. Will strip fitter for the run. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings three times from three starts. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. MARK TO MARKET (2) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing fourth (18.81) last time in a Grade 4/5 at this track. Form here at the trip sound including three wins. Smart beginner who should take advantage of the low draw. Has ability and can atone. LUCKY LINKS (4) stalked the lead from the inside draw before finishing second last start (18.58) at this track in Grade 4/5 over 320m. Has a strong record from box 4, including two wins. Must be included in calculations. HOVERING (7) was out of the money here last time out but can bounce back.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (23.15) in a NG, finishing a 8 length seventh. Still a maiden from this draw but has never missed the frame from three starts. Looks hard to beat with even luck.

Missed the frame last start when a 7 length fourth (18.81) at this track. Previous form sound including a win three back at this track. Best figures puts him right in this and well worth another chance.

Good effort last time when second (18.58) over 320m at this track. Tricky draw to overcome. Deserves respect.

Form has been strong, including a victory two starts back. Last time out finished 3rd in a NG on August 28 over 401m at this track behind Maybe Next Week beaten 5.5 lengths (22.94). Needs to find a bit more.

Missed the frame last start when fifth but had been in strong form prior to that, winning two on end before placing two back. Has ability and worth including.

Got back last start and could only manage fourth but before that won by half a length at this track (18.46) beating Secret Bullet in a Grade 5 on August 19. Likely to struggle this time.
