8.25 Ffos Las – Class 5 Handicap (1m; Sky Sports Racing)
BRETTON WOOD (NAP) might be no good – he has certainly looked limited so far – but he's interesting now he steps up in trip and makes his debut for Jack Channon.
His former trainer, Robert Cowell, is striking at around 10 per cent this term, whereas Channon is knocking in winners at around a 20 per cent clip – impressive stats.
Bretton Wood has been campaigned as a sprinter, but if it turns out that they have been running him over the wrong trip, he could be ahead of his modest handicap mark. And this flat track on quick ground won't make for a severe stamina test at the distance.
The selection is by Frankel, out of Group 1 winner Pretty Pollyanna, so he ought to be better than a lowly mark of 62.
8.45 Kempton – Class 4 handicap (2m; Racing TV)
ENVIRONMENT AMIGO should be better for his recent reappearance over 1m 4½f at Newcastle and will be suited by this step back up in distance.
James Fanshawe's runner won a couple of staying handicaps on the all-weather at Southwell last term and still looks to have improvement in him.
