Gosden Filly Ready To Get Her Head In Front
Experience To Pay Off For Juvenile
Roger Varian sends a newcomer to Chelmsford today in the form of MONTATHER, who contests the the totepool Cashback Club At totesport. com Novice Stakes this evening and who has been backed into favourite. She has plenty going for her on paper with the progeny of her sire Dubawi running at a winning 22% at the course and the same percentage at the distance. Her trainer is, on the face of it, an encouraging 23 winners from 127 runners here, but that is actually 30% worse than expected on BTO figures. She may win easily but the success rate for two-year-old favourites on their debut is 34.8% and produces a loss to the punter. MAJESTIC NOOR has her second outing and has sire and trainer stats to match the favourite. By Frankel, whose progeny have produced 19 winners from 58 runners here – 33% – she is trained at Newmarket by John Gosden and he has had four winners from 16 runners lately and is 15% at the course. She ran a decent race at Kempton on her introduction to racing, finishing a five lengths fifth to Oriental Mystique, running on well over the mile without being put under hard pressure. The third, and favourite, Dubai Love, had won on her previous outing a month before. There could be a champion, such as the well backed LORD OF THE SKY in the field but at 4/1 Majestic Noor is edging to an each-way bet to nothing. G Lees
