EXPERT VIEW

that the horse hung right handed. BALLYKESSANGEL: Following its run on 6/12/2022 it was reported that the horse was unbalanced by a rival skewing.

Probable S.P’s: 5-1 Evolicatt (GB), 11-2 Princess Naomi (GB), 6-1 Burena (IRE), 15-2 Betterment (GB), 9-1 Coral Reef (IRE), Greavsie (IRE), 11-1 Noah David (GB), 20-1 Struck Gold (IRE), 22-1 Desert Fighter (IRE), Italian Lover (IRE), 28-1 Ballykessangel (IRE), 66-1 No News (IRE)

A few with chances but PRINCESS NAOMI is fancied to bag her third win with the form of her August Chepstow third having been franked. Evolicatt is feared most on the back of her recent Chelmsford success, with Greavsie and Betterment both weighted to have a say too.

GOLDEN SPEECH didn’t look totally straightforward during the summer but a subsequent gelding operation coupled with the application of cheekpieces may help him and he possesses the ability to win a maiden such as this. Stablemate First Sight and I’m Too Tired remain capable of better and can offer most resistance.
