5.30 Nottingham

Keep Dancing is potentially well handicapped for his handicap debut as Andrew Balding's runner was two lengths behind Definightly (a handicap winner off 88 subsequently) on his debut at Lingfield, a race in which he finished comfortably ahead of Arachnophobia, who won off 68 when last seen. David Probert's mount runs off an official mark of 70 here so may have claims, but the one that appeals more is Lady Vivien, who returns from a little break. David Brown's filly notched up a double when landing a Wolverhampton handicap last time out. Prior to that she had dead heated with Desert Strike at Great Leighs, a horse who was rated 74. That performance has seen her mark raised 7 lbs to 69 for this, but she looks a progressive filly worth keeping onside after making a decent impression last time out. Suggested bets: Keep Dancing (currently ~8/1 Bf): 30 % stake Lady Vivien (currently 21/5 Bf) 70 % stake

Re: Nottingham Sat (eve) 18/4/09 17:00 - Gillburg 10pts win @ 1.80 Paddy Power (bog) Gillburg was 3rd on maiden debut behind Star Rover who has won all three of his races now, Heslington back in 5th went onto run well at Beverley the other day finishing 2nd in similar company, Kevin Ryan's colt should come on from his debut and he sets the standard here.
