CATTERICK 3.00 ... MANDALAY KING 2 Pts @ 11/2

No doubt this race been on the agenda for Mandalay King who looks well poised for a winning run at a course he goes well at. Six previous visits with 1 win, 3 places, all off marks between 65-71.
Trainer has 3 winner and 8 places from only 26 flat runners this season and Jockey on a similar 12% Win strike rate.


Mandalay King runs off 68 back into Class5 today, only 1lb higher than last visit in June over 7 furlongs (Class4 0-79 H/cap) and 3 of the runners behind him in that event have gone in since.
His run in May when beaten a length off 2lb higher looks all the better with the subsequent success' of Gap Princess who followed up here in a Class4 off 73, before latest win yesterday in a Class3 Ripon H/cap off 82.
Green Park who was a length in front, ran off the same mark when finishing over 4 length in front of current favourite Dancing Red Devil some 5 start later.
This mark is only 1lb more than he won a 0-80 York handicap off last season before finishing a 1/2 length 2nd in this very event giving the winner 22lb.
This no stronger looking than last year and looks a fair price at the odds.
