Ascot Race 4 - Juddmonte Ebf Restricted Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)
SOLDIER OF THE SEA (2) Was competitive when 2nd last start at Salisbury. Been in the money 2 from 2 attempts this campaign. Classy enough for this field and is one of the major players. PURE MINT (1) Made no mistakes when winning by a margin of 4 1/2L last run at Ripon and having second race start. Worth a bet. DOES MARY KNOW (3) Nice run when 2nd last run at Ripon. Likely to get back. Goes very close. WAR CHEST (5) Career debut 2yo by Saxon Warrior for Eve Johnson Houghton and has drawn to do little work. Watch for a sign in the market.

Was competitive when 2nd last run at Ripon. Might have to make up considerable ground. Has a good chance.

At $13.00 made some ground when 4th last time at Windsor and was a debutant last start. Shows good early pace. Drawn nicely. Unfortunately, it seems unlikely.

2yo debutant by Saxon Warrior for Eve Johnson Houghton and drawn the rails. Betting is the best guide.

Tidy run when 2nd last time at Lingfield and fitter for debut run. Gets some weight taken off. Represents value in this race.
