300 Plumpton-This is a desperate race,with recent form tough to find.
The majority of the field are very inconsistent  but Bonds Conquest has produced solid runs on the 3 of its last 4 starts and that gets it the vote here.
Its latest effort gives it a better chance than the odds suggest and it should go well.
Goring Two has a rating from last year that is the best here but it pulls up more than it completes and possibly wants softer ground.
Tikkapick has chances but looks like it wants further and it could get outpaced around this tight track.
Back Bonds Conquest 10pts at 5.0 at various bookies-3rd(-10pts)One of those you regret very early on.As slow as a boat and despite being up there,never looked like winning.
Monthly Total-58pts
Running Total+8771.27pts

I wouldnt put anyone off backing Shimba Hills(330 Plumpton) or Cadeau Magnifique(510 Wolves) but I wanted at least 3/1 on both before getting involved.
