Saeed Bin Suroor: smart winning debuts for Dream Castle and BenbatlCredit: Alan Crowhurst

Violets Boy 12.55 Leicester
SP forecast 11-8

Back to form after a long absence recently and looked set to build on his reappearance second at Southwell when unseating rider – in front at the time – at Market Rasen last month. That came for Oliver Sherwood and he was well beaten on his debut for Nick Mitchell last time, but that was in a hot Newbury handicap and this is easier. Quick going suits.
Conclusion Just three wins from 32 starts is offputting. Lay.

Timekeeping 7.15 Kempton
SP forecast 9-4
