All racecards for Thursday 17th September
We said5th of 14, beaten 5¼ at 6/1
LILY BEAR 11/1
LILY BEAR at 11/1, M C Grassick and Colin Keane, is the one I make it. He has a telling booking — upgrade from a 4% rider to 15% on a horse out of form.
The dangers are ANNIE BATT at 11/4 (staying on last time) and SANTO PARVENUE at 8/1 (in first-time headgear).
