All racecards for Monday 26th October
We said2nd of 6, beaten 9½ at 14/1
MAVIS PIKE 9/2
MAVIS PIKE at 9/2, Nigel & Willy Twiston-Davies and Sam Twiston-Davies, looks the most likely of these. He comes from a yard in good heart at 27%, should be suited by the ground and gets a trip he has won over.
The one worry is weakened last time.
LUCY THE WIRE rates higher on our figures but is passed over — won last time, and there is no comparable mark in this code to judge the rise.
The dangers are HELLO SWEETY at 7/2 (won with plenty in hand) and PRETTYLADY at 20/1.
