Chepstow Race 6

Dragonbet Welsh Racing Festival 9th-11th October Hcp

Prize Money: $14,760

BUCKLAND BELLE (3) was a beaten favourite last week. Seemingly is capable of better form on the turf than all-weather and will find this more realistic. Worth taking seriously. VIOLET GOLDSMITH (4) remains a maiden after five attempts. Was a good second here in May over course and distance and though stable are quiet at the moment is still feared. ALICE'S INFLUENCE (6) brings strong recent form and warrants thought. If in the same condition as shown at Pontefract earlier in the week will play a major role. LADY OF CLOVER (5) comes from an in form stable. Turf form is not up to the level required. Needs more.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run 2nd in a small field at Windsor on June 27 over 1600m, 1.75 len behind My Old Mate carrying 59.5kg at $2.60. The run before that made some head-way from midfield; 3rd of 12 at Windsor on June 8 over 1600m, 0.5 len behind Diamond Ali with 60.5kg at $2.40. Making headway. Has ability and is among the leading hopes.

Third-up today. First-up ran second last of 12 at Southwell All Weather on April 9 over 1600m, 11 len behind What Fools Believe carrying 61kg at $7. Second run from a spell 2nd of 7 at this track on May 29 over 1600m, 5 len behind Thanos carrying 59kg at $15. Shows promise. Heading in the right direction and looks hard to beat.

Racing well recently. At the latest run 4th of 10 at Great Yarmouth on June 10 over 1600m, slow going 2.75 len behind Rockafeller Skank carrying 56.5kg at $2.10. Before that favourite; won by 1.3 len at Wolverhampton June 2 over 1700m defeating Knightmare with 53.5kg at $3.50. Useful type and worth another chance.

Recent form sound. Most recently 3rd of 9 at Pontefract on June 29 over 1600m, 4 len behind Daring Leader with 57.5kg at $7.50. The run before that ran second last in a small field at Ffos Las on June 17 over 1600m, on a slow track; 13 len behind Quick Turn carrying 56.5kg at $5.50. Worth including.
