His Excellency - 8:12 - 9/2

While this Heysie trained 5 year old colt prefers other types of going to fast the odds of 9/2 seem to offer real value in a field short of serious quality. In 63 competitive outings His Excellency has recorded 8 wins and 22 placed finishes. Previously owned by Diablo racing this boy has earned £636 since starting on getminted back on the 16th of December. Comes into this race on the back of a win in Hong Kong on good going on the 31st of July. A steady entrant he will be hoping to improve on his poor win to run ratio tonight but perhaps a placed finish is more likely with the excellent La Gazza Ladra installed as the firm favourite.

Nenikikamen - 8:36 - 11/1

This was never a commentator's favourite but the punters adore this old boy. And when you look at his stats you can see why. In 95 races the 7 year old colt has won in 29 races ( 31% win to run ratio) and has been placed in 31. He's in a solid run of form at the moment with one win and four placed finishes in his last five races. With career winnings to date of almost £2000 its clear that this is one of the best and should go close in the 8:36 from Hong Kong tonight.

Upton Lark Boy - 9:24 - 40/1

Obviously owners Fat Lummox are always blowing bubbles! Their charge Upton Lark Boy has had a strange few months with the stable. Since the end of March the 5 year old colt has only run twice and didnt put in an appearence in all of May, June and most of July. There were rumours that he'd been shot by the West Ham side but judging by their penalty taking in the FA Cup final I always knew Upton Lark Boy was safe enough! Its great to see him back and tonight a placed finish is very likely.
