Quick Returner Has Conditions To Win Again

Backing a young horse on a winning roll can greatly benefit one’s bank account and CHAMPAGNE MARENGO fits the bill this evening.

A real stayer in the making, he struggled over distances from seven furlongs to a mile and a quarter before showing improved form with the application of cheek-pieces and an extra half mile at Wetherby in May.

He was beaten eight lengths and then followed that up with a second and three wins, the last an easy five lengths victory at Ascot last Friday.

Spargrove, just beaten by him in his penultimate race, sluiced home yesterday.

He raced off a mark of 65 last week and is up just a pound today, and as he’s won on soft, standard and good to firm the good ground won’t be a problem.

Andrea Atzeni, who won on him at Chelmsford is back in the plate.

WELL FUNDED, who beat FANTASTIC MS FOX into third at Doncaster a month ago is a pound worse off with her for three-quarters of a length, but is top rated on BTO figures and being backed and ROAD TO PARIS has the race profile of a Prescott maiden to handicap winner but has so far shown no form.

At a short 2.

3 on the exchanges, Champagne Marengo might seem value around 7.

15 this evening.
