Nottingham Race 1 - Ebf Desert Crown Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)
CHEVERE (1) Close to claiming the win last time at the track and will try to take advantage of the draw. Displays very good finishing speed. Ready to win. APRICOT (3) Minzaal 2yo trained by Terry Kent having first race appearance. Watch early betting. CHRISTMAS IS COMIN (2) Honest race when 3rd last run at Bath and will appreciate the drop in grade. Should muster plenty of early toe. Exhibiting good form since returning from a spell. Honest enough customer who is strongly placed. DEBUTANTE (4) Resumes from a break. Not up to standard when 4th last time at Salisbury but was on debut last time. Should race on the speed. Needs to lift.

Competitive effort when 3rd last run at Bath and competing in an easier class. Should jump out and bowl along. Exhibiting good form this preparation and has the ideal draw. Absolutely right in this.

Fresh after a break. Odds of $19.00 and not in contention when 4th last time at Salisbury but having second race start. Likely to be well placed early. Will be a difficult test.
