Chepstow Race 4

Bailey Family Handicap

Stake: $15,941

There could be more to come from RORY ROCKET (3). The Gary and Josh Moore trained three-year-old finished runner-up all three starts to date and may go one place better making handicap debut. SAFFREDI (6) looks hard to ignore. Racing for Grace Harris and due to go up 1kg having finished a good third in this grade at Newbury a week ago. Respect off the same rating. Six-time course winner CONNIE'S ROSE (1) often does well here and is interesting with first-time visor fitted. EM FOUR (5) also warrants consideration.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run 3rd in a small field at this track on June 23 over 1000m, 4.5 len behind All Ways Glamorous with 58kg at $5.50. The race before that rolled along in front then was edged out late 2nd of 7 at this track on June 16 over 1200m, 0.5 len behind Papabella carrying 61kg at $5.50. Rates well and is among the chances.

Last start 9th of 11 at Kempton Park All Weather on July 3 over 1200m, 8 len behind Tyger Bay with 59.5kg at $6. The race before that came from midfield and won by 0.5 len at this track June 16 over 1200m defeating Connie's Rose with 59.5kg at $2.50. Has ability and can make amends.

Racing well recently. Last start tried to lead throughout but was claimed late 3rd of 14 at Newbury on July 10 over 1200m, 0.5 len behind Thunderous Love carrying 60.5kg at $7. Before that sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 8 at this track on June 23 over 1200m, 1.3 len behind Thurso with 58kg at $8. Shapes as a key runner.
