Be sure to get INVOLVED in the Mansionbet’s Beaten By A Head Handicap (4.45, NAP) at Newbury this afternoon.
Newmarket-based George Boughey has made quite an impression since joining the training ranks last summer.
And Involved very nearly got off to the perfect start for his new stable - he joined Boughey from Daniel Kubler - on the first day of the Guineas meeting last Thursday.
Sent off at 11-2 for a handicap over 10 furlongs, my selection went under to the Andrew Balding-saddled Inclyne, throwing down a strong challenge inside the final furlong but just getting the worse of the argument by a neck.
That run came from a British Horseracing Authority handicap mark of 78 and a quick return to the fray means that Involved, due to go up 2lb in the future, competes from the same perch here.
James Doyle is once again on board and, with the likelihood of further progress on his fourth start on turf - and his ninth race in all - Involved gets a confident vote to go one better for his upwardly mobile handler.
At Beverley, STRINGYBARK CREEK gets the nod to rack up a fourth course triumph in the Visit tote.co.uk Handicap (3.20, NB).
The David Loughnane six-year-old, successful over this seven-furlong distance at Kempton in November competes from a handicap rating of 73 - and won from 2lb higher on the Westwood in May of last year.
