An excellent
days racing tomorrow, the selection is from the last at Newcastle
4.55 Newcastle
A Camelot filly costing 50,000 GNS. Arthenia was very green
in the early stages of a strong novice race at Newbury on debut, staying on
well in the final two furlongs. She produced a decent run in a good juvenile
race on her third start after being very slowly away. There is stamina in the
family so Arthenia will be well suited by a step up in trip. The first two in
her third race are both now rated 94, which suggests she is starting life on a
lenient mark.
Only five runners but a strong looking race for the grade.
Arthenia is the outsider of the five, but I do expect her to run better than
her price suggests. Rude Awakening was impressive on handicap debut for Sir
Mark Prescott and there could be much more to come. Casey Jones has won both
starts to date for John Gosden and put up an RPR of 88 at Newcastle over a mile
last time, s 85 could be a good opening mark. We Are The World is only up 2lbs
for winning at Wolverhampton but that was a slowly run race so the form may not
be up to much. Dawn Dancer is a half-brother to the late Ballet Concerto so may
improve now a three-year-old.
I am hoping for a good run from Arthenia here, she might
not be good enough to win at this stage but I do think she is overpriced.
1 pt win ARTHENIA (14/1 Sky Bet, Power)
