Thirsk - Sat 16/5/09

[fintron]

4.15 Thirsk Cape Vale returns to the scene of his debut win from August 2007. He followed up next time out on his handicap debut off 79 but things never really took off for him after that as his 3 yo campaign was very disappointing, and fruitless. However, I think there is more to come from this half-brother of Moss Vale now at 4 and he is now rated only 4 lbs higher than when scooping that Ayr handicap two years ago. On his reappearance he was 8th of 13 at Musselburgh, but I am prepared to give him another chance with Adele Mulrennan taking off 7 lbs as the yard have hit form again of late and he may improve for the run. Admittedly, they do send out 4 of the 10 runners in the field here, but this is the one of the Nicholls quartet that catches me eye the most.
