William Haggas sends out two in maiden events on Tuesday. Kinswoman is odds on at Brighton in the 3.30 and Forever Penywern is around 2/1 in the Beverley 4.15
It will be great to see Kinswoman get her win and secure her paddock value as she has given her all in her last three races on each occasion coming up against some useful rivals including Double Rush.
She should just about win this on the ratings but she is untested on a roller coaster track like Brighton and there a couple of rivals close enough to her in those ratings to make this a tight contest.

If you gave the yard a handicap mark of 78 for Forever Penywren today they would reject it out of hand , but thats the figure he will need to run too in order to beat the Charlie Johnston trained favourite Special Ghaiyyath and on the evidence of his first outing he needs more experience.
The Charlie Johnston team is in the best form for a few years and Evs or better could look a good price for the favourite

For the bet today we have to wait for the 8.50 Newbury where i expect On Edge to complete a great few days for Gina Mangan and Christopher Mason by taking out the last.
The stables two horses at Chepstow yesterday won very easily and Jacks Edge who was thought to need the run almost gave them a treble.
On Edge was an eyecatcher on his first outing for nearly a year, where from a bad draw at Windsor and forced to race 9 wide the 7yo stayed on really well under a considerate ride to finish 3rd. The form of that race has worked out well and although it is Newbury this contest is on a par and certainly no stronger.
1pt ew On Edge 8.50 Newbury 7/1 generally 1-4 Places.
