The Verdict
FormCast selectionAim For The BullConfidence 4/5Didn't win
Form reads 144110 - two recent wins and consistently in the frame, including a win last time out just 21 days ago, showing this gelding is in flying form and fit off a quick turnaround. Carries a competitive OR57 and top-class recent figures for this grade. The 144110 sequence shows he handles this 7f trip well and is race-fit, with connections clearly striking while the iron is hot (three starts in quick succession, mixing wins and places). Apprentice/conditional jockey handicaps like this are notoriously messy affairs with 15 runners, but a horse in this sort of blistering form with a proven trip and a positive racing pattern stands out from the pack. Rivals like Violet Goldsmith and Credit Forgedd It are on the pace with decent recent placed efforts but neither shows the same recent winning depth. Too Much Trevor and Diane Chasseresse are more speculative with looser recent form. Aim For The Bull's trainer Mike Murphy has him fresh and firing, and stepping into a leniently rated apprentice contest looks well-timed to strike again.
