We have two runners at Beverley on Friday evening, where the going is currently described as good to firm, good in places.
Both of our runners go head to head at 6.35.pm, in the selling stakes over the extended mile. In his younger days Arranmore was the winner of four races, achieving a best BHA mark of 91 (Ireland) and 83 (UK) but now at the age of seven, in his recent runs from marks in the 60's, he has failed to get fully competitive. He will find the trip and going to his liking, and will be partnered by his regular jockey Aiden Brookes.
Our other representative in the race is Mintnthat who will also be okay with the trip, and the current underfoot conditions. Mintnthat was a winner on the all weather twice at Newcastle back in January, but has found life tougher more recently from his rise in the weights. With his regular jockey Aiden Brookes riding Arramore, Mintnthat finds himself with a new jockey, and that is Rhys Elliott, who is having his first ride for the yard.
