Beverley 5:20 Result

Low-grade seller-type handicap where recent form and race fitness matter most. Love You More carries top weight but that reflects her mark of 53 earned via genuine placed efforts (270716) - her recent 6th was over further/tougher conditions and she has shown enough zip to be involved. Joseph Parr yard fires with fancied types and Luke Morris is a strong booking for this level, suggesting stable confidence. Casilli shares the same OR (53) but is a 9yo mare who has gone 4866-6, looking to have found her level and lacking the placed efforts of Love You More. Kameel and Itszaboy are consistently there or thereabouts (244455, 066525) but keep missing out, suggesting they are workmanlike rather than winners at this grade. Copper And Five (246824) and Elettaria (734524) both freshened with cheekpieces/blinkers is interesting but neither has strung together the finishing improvement Love You More showed with her placed efforts. The headgear first-time hood on Love You More could sharpen her up and is a positive angle allied to the strong jockey booking. At a track and trip that doesn't look to unduly favour any particular draw, I make her the most likely to see out the mile well and get competitive, especially with quality connections targeting the race. No standout bigger-priced value place looks obvious - the field is fairly workmanlike/handicap-plodder in nature with no one clearly overpriced.
