Newbury Race 5 - Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships 'Confined' Maiden Stakes (GBB Race) (Str)
KING OF EARTH (10) Right in contention last time at Doncaster and back in an easier grade. Displays very good closing speed. Worth strong consideration. THOMAS PICTON (20) 3yo first starter sired by Soldier's Call for Jack Channon. Betting is the best guide. DECADE OF TIME (4) Jack Channon trained 3yo by Study Of Man having first start. Follow the money. LIGHTING THUNDER (11) Back from a 30 week break. Threw down a serious challenge last run at Yarmouth and having second race start. Can win.
