    Race Analysis

    TONAL (7) managed to win three of four starts this campaign including latest by 1. 5L at Chelmsford. Climbs further in weights and remains the one to beat. ERNIE'S VALENTINE (4) is an admirable performer producing eight victories. Seems to get on particularly well with this apprentice for whom he has won twice and placed twice in five attempts. Expect another bold showing. STUDIOUS (3) is a progressive gelding having won here previously. Drawn well for this so keep safe. THREATENING (2) impressed winning at Chelmsford two outings ago. Midfield at Kempton subsequently when sent off favourite. Worth giving another chance.
