Leicester Race 4

Family Sunday 10th August Book Now Hcp

Prize Money: $11,070

RICARDO PHILLIPS (2) registered his sole victory at this track last July when making all over 2400m. A bit too free when a decent third on seasonal return at Epsom last time. Can strip fitter for that. Looks the selection. HACHIMAN (3) managed to keep on for a 1L third providing first attempt at this journey latest finishing just ahead of KAMEEL (1). Cheekpieces can help bring out a little more. CLIPSHAM NOBLE (5) was an easy winner at this venue trying 2400m in May. Not reached those heights since but could come into the equation now dropping in trip. TYPEFACE (4) proved disappointing at short odds recently. Longer distance and headgear need to lift him.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run 4th of 10 at this track on July 4 over 2000m, 1.3 len behind A Daughters Love with 61kg at $4. The race before that 4th of 9 at this track on June 13 over 2400m, 3.5 len behind Jack Andrea carrying 60kg at $4.50. Best form stacks up nicely so worth another chance.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield
