UPDATE*
A luckless day overall. The 3 selections all ran well enough but none could get thier heads infront. Arry's Orse is maybe not as good as first thought by connections but I think there is a a handicap in him off this mark. He travelled well through and it may also be that ground slightly slower (ground was officially firm today at Redcar) may be what he needs. I'm willing to give him another chance. The second horse to run was Lady Chloe, she was smashed up in the betting all day. I put her up at 10/3 and she went of at 2/1f, it looked a bit of a plot but unfortunately she was outdone by another well backed horse having his second run for a new stable. Lastly was Breton Star, unfancied in the market (advised at 8/1) as she went off at 20/1 but there was plenty of promise in the handicap debut. His staying powers were a doubt and it did prove that way in the end, he was the first off the bridle out the back but he picked up well to go into 3rd but he started to paddle late and was caught close home and ended up finishing 4th. There is a race in him off this mark when dropped back a furlong or 2.
4:20R - Arry's Orse. 11/2.

A well regarded colt who should prove better than this grade in time. The return to 6f is a positive.
5:25R - Lady Chloe. 10/3.
She has been laid out for this race. She takes a step up in trip for her handicap debut with Paul Hanagan booked. Big weight for age allowance too.

5:50W - Breton Star. 8/1.
Not guaranteed to stay but it's interesting that he takes this step up in trip on his handicap debut. David Simcock is a shrewd trainer and he wouldn't do it if he didn't think he would have a chance.
