Knowledgeable "Thrown In" At The Weights

The 4.00 at Brighton on Tuesday shapes as a very weak race that won't take much winning and it is likely that one with unseen scope for improvement to the naked eye will be the way to play this race.

One horse that fits the bill under that scenario is the 3yo filly Knowledgeable which is deceivingly well bred for this 8f test by Reset (Zabeel) out of the Danehill Dancer mare Belle's Edge. To NH pundits this breeding is likely to be somewhat under-estimated due to the fact that Reset did all of his racing in Australia. He was a top class race horse who was undefeated winning the G1 Australian Guineas defeating Starcraft and then franked that form winning the G1 Futurity Stakes defeating older horses as a 3yo. Of further interesting note is the fact that the Zabeel X Danehill nick has worked an absolute treat in the SH hemisphere producing numerous top class gallopers and this season Reset has produced a top class galloper in the form of Set For Fame who finished 2nd in the Australian Guineas to Rock Classic in March.

Knowledgeable comes into this race having its mere 4th career start on the back of finishing 4th btn 5.2l at Leicester over 7f at the end of its juvenile campaign in 2009, that day it was badly hampered at the start and should have finished closer to the winner. The booking of smart hoop David Probert adds confidence to suggest it may be ready for this 1st up tilt. The mile trip suits and it gets in superbly weighted only being asked to carry 8'2" vs tried and tested low class gallopers with no upside.

Currently on offer at 15.0 on the exchanges represents good value and it should be backed with a minor degree of confidence.
