Robert Winston – rides R Bar Open
R BAR OPEN is Dean Ivory’s only runner today when one of ten runners in the lucky last at Bath, a mile handicap due off at 5pm.
The 3yo son of Orpen broke his duck at the fifth attempt when getting home by a neck over 7f at Salisbury on Good to Firm ground two months ago. He has since disappointed at Brighton but then came back to form when third at Lingfield on the turf eleven days ago.
Stepping up to a mile for the first time should suit as he was doing his best work late on last time out but the Good to Soft going maybe a concern. If he handles it, he has each-way credentials at around 7/1 under Robert Winston. Ripoli and You’re A Goat look two of the main dangers.
