Steal The Scene has dropped to a handy mark and looks worth siding with at 8/1 in the 7.35 at Newmarket this evening.
Richard Hannon’s colt was last successful at Kempton back in November when scoring by 1 1/4 lengths off a mark of 80.
He went on to be beaten a nose off 84 at Lingfield and was far from disgraced back on the turf when a 4 1/4 length eighth of 15 to Fieldsman in a class 3 contest at Newmarket off 85.
Steal The Scene also ran well when third to Pastoral Player at Goodwood off 79 and is now able to race in this class 4 affair of 78.
That gives him a big shout at the weights and he comes into the contest on the back of a solid third at Chelmsford off 7lb higher under an inexperienced 5lb claimer.
With Tom Marquand now taking over in the saddle he looks a major player if building on that effort.
Daily Sport recommended bet: 2pts each-way Steal The Scene (8/1 bet365, BetVictor, Ladbrokes, Stan James, Sky Bet, William Hill – BOG)
