'She can go close in a competitive heat' - Paul Kealy fancies improving chaser
2.45 Musselburgh
1pt win at 5-1 generallyMoore Clouds showed only a modicum over hurdles in a stop-start career, but she won a point on bad ground in Ireland and her chase debut at Fakenham in November was a big improvement on anything she had previously done.
Although she made the odd mistake, Moore Clouds also put in some excellent leaps, so she looks fairly natural, and it was only the 2-1 favourite who managed to peg her back. She was nine lengths clear of the third.
The handicapper has raised her just 3lb to a mark of 91, but she returned an RPR of 100, and if she can run to a similar level here she can go close in a competitive heat.
