Salisbury Race 3

'Pyledriver' British Ebf Novice Stakes (Gbb Race) (Div 2)

Prize Money: $23,985

STRIKE FORCE MAX (9) is an intriguingly bred newcomer for the Brian Meehan stable whose juveniles come to life at this time of year. By the American stallion Maxfield and worth monitoring closely for any support. Too Darn Hot colt VULCANIST (10) represents the Ralph Beckett yard. Very well-related out of the excellent mare Barshiba. Obvious chance. KAMAAL (4) has been keeping good company on the track so far in four outings. Disappointing he couldn't get the job done when 2.25L third over 1400m at Lingfield last time. Well in the mix with the benefit of experience. HIGH SUMMER (3) and SHOWMASTER (7) are other debutants to note.

Jumped as a despised roughie at debut, ran second last of 10 at Kempton Park All Weather on September 2 over 1400m, 17 len behind Charlemont Gg with 60.5kg at $51. Will need to improve sharply.

At the latest run 3rd in a small field at Lingfield All Weather on September 3 over 1400m, 2.25 len behind Lion Of God carrying 60.5kg at $3.30. The run before that 8th of 10 in the LR Rose Bowl Stakes at Newbury on July 17 over 1200m, 6 len behind Arapaho Gold carrying 58kg at $26. Heading in the right direction and looks hard to beat.
