Verdict

It may be worth taking a chance on CONKERING HERO in the opener. He was no match for most of the field at Kempton last time but he shaped as if he may have been amiss and it was his first run for nearly four months, so he can be forgiven that. The gelding had previously shown some ability on Polytrack on his only previous start on the surface and he returns from another break here. Provided connections have got him ready to go, he could surprise at a likely big each-way price for a jockey with a fine strike-rate on the AW (18.52%). Moneyoryourlife is another maiden who gets the services of a jockey in good form. He showed improved form when upped in trip last time and a repeat of that effort may be good enough to take this. Provided Zenovia receives more of a positive ride, she may be capable of getting on the premises.
