COSMIC PRINCESS – 5.40pm KEMPTON

0.5 PTS EACH WAY BET ADVISED AT A BEST PRICE 15/2 WITH SKYBET

This is a highly competitive Fillies’ Novice Stakes with the top yards of Varian, Stoute, and Gosden represented by the 3 horses at the head of the betting market. However, I’m opting for tracker horse Cosmic Princess at higher each way odds of 7/1. This Kingman filly really caught my eye running on here on her debut over 7f last October in what looked a classy fillies’ novice race. She broke slowly from a poor wide draw in stall 13, lost ground and used energy tracking over to the rail, was out-paced early, and was still about 10 lengths behind in last place with 2 furlongs to go when she showed a nice turn of foot running on strongly through the line before finishing only 3.75 lengths down in 6th. She travelled well throughout and would have finished even closer but for being slightly impeded/stopped in her run with about half a furlong to go before running on well again. She is closely related to 2m AW winner Cogital and shaped on debut like today’s extra 4 furlongs (1m3f) would suit and could well bring about improvement. She is better drawn in stall 6, she has shown she handles the track, the in form Tom Marquand (Last 14 days: 17-76, 22%) is an excellent first-time booking, and although she hasn’t ran in 247 days she was fit and ready to go on her debut and knew her job well. You’re betting on potential here against horses who have the benefit of a recent run but she has plenty of ability, looks very promising, and worth an interest at the current 15/2 on offer with SKYBET. Good luck!
