Worcester Race 1

Fbc Manby Bowdler Handicap Chase

Prize Money: $12,915

SPECIAL DRAGON (3) brings solid placed form following a 6L runner-up effort over 4200m at Uttoxeter. Finds a suitable contest to go one better. BEGIN THE LUCK (1) registered a sound second delivering penultimate start tackling 4200m at Newton Abbot. Main danger. GREENROCK ABBEY (5) is worth considering in view of a fourth attempting a 3500m Bangor-On-Dee steeplechase. Likely to improve advancing in distance. WHYNOTNOWROY (8) rates each-way.

The run before finished second of 7 runners at Newton Abbot on April 19 over 4200m, in the wet; 3.5 len behind Pooroldmackley with 71.5kg at $3.80. Better than that and can measure up this time.

Second-up finished eighth of 10 starters at Fontwell Park on April 25 over 3900m, 14 len behind Millies Mite carrying 64.5kg at $5.50. Unlikely to break the long drought today.
