Newmarket Race 6 - Aspall Hcp
SHIMMERING SANDS (1) Found another gear when winning by 7L last start at Pontefract and competing at a lower level of competition. Gets the perfect draw. Suited. LUCKY HERO (2) Comprehensive victory when winning by 5L last start at Redcar and up against weaker rivals. Always seems to find the line well. Going well this preparation. Can get the job done. BLUE NOON (3) Looked good when 2nd last run at Sandown and up against a less challenging field. Expecting to settle positively. In top form since returning from a break. Rough hope for punters.

Kicked clear when winning by 7L last start at Pontefract and dropping in grade. Unbeaten this preparation with 2 wins from 2 runs. Shows good closing speed. Worth a lot of thought in this race.

Spaced the field to win by a margin of 5L last start at Redcar and has been racing in stronger company. Expected to be flashing home. Gets a favourable draw. Nice chance at a very tempting price.

Ran 2nd last run at Sandown and challenged by less formidable competitors. Has shown early pace in races to date. Performing impressively since returning from a spell. Will struggle to compete in this race.
