Newmarket Race 2 - Racing Welfare Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)
VASTERN (5) Ran well when 2nd last run at Chepstow and was on debut last time. Should be right in the finish. ANNCANYA (6) Peter Chapple Hyam 3yo by Advertise having first start and has a nice advantage with a good draw. Betting is the best guide. EL CARRUSEL (2) Back from a 36 week spell. Was nothing special when 6th last run at Chelmsford and dropping in distance. Displays good tactical speed. Large claim helps. Could sneak a place. LIVEMORE (3) Below expectations when 5th last time at Nottingham but was a debutant last start. Can't be left out of trifectas.

First up after a break of 36 weeks. Underperformed when 6th last run at Chelmsford and back to a shorter distance. Should be going forward early. Place best.

Disappointing outing when 5th last time at Nottingham but fitter for debut run. Not at all out of this race.

Started at $19.00 and looked flat when 4th last run at Ffos Las but drawn nicely. First start for a new trainer but back in trip. Could feature here.

3yo by Advertise having first start for trainer Peter Chapple Hyam and will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Keep your eye on the market.

Below par when 8th last time at Yarmouth and facing a stronger group of contenders. Will benefit with the weight drop. Looking at others.
