Price Could Be Right At Leicester

The less said about Raajih the better. I thought he looked overpriced at 14/1, but his drift out to 40/1 suggested the run was badly needed. Such is life, and hopefully today's selection puts up a better show. The filly that catches my eye is Kingstreet Lady, trained by Richard Price, and she goes in the opening nursery at 12.50.

This filly is having her 3rd handicap run, and showed clear promise on her handicap debut off 63 over 6f on soft ground at Chepstow. She was denied a clear run just as the race was hotting up, but when she found daylight she showed quite a good attitude, staying on nicely in the closing stages and shaping as if a step up in trip would definitely suit.

She was sent off at 40/1 on her next run at Wolverhampton over 7f, but she showed the trip was no problem, staying on strongly in the home straight having been shuffled back coming around the bend. She was only beaten 2L in the end, and it was a very eye catching run. She didn't seem to handle the turns too well, and the straight 7F at Leicester should be ideal.

Soft ground is fine too, and off a mark of 60 with Muscutt taking off another 3lbs she is effectively 6lb lower than she was for her handicap debut. She looks too big a price at 12/1 and granted better luck in running she should go very close in what looks a pretty open race.

STEVOS' SELECTION: 12.50 LEICESTER- KINGSTREET LADY 12/1
