Picture: Bourgeoise in the Hollywood Syndicate yellow with purple star colours nearest the camera only just fails in a race at Newbury last year and connections will be hoping she can repeat that performance at Newbury tomorrow (Thursday).
Bourgeoisie, who was a hard-knocking filly for Owen Heffer and Barnane Stud as a two-year-old last year, runs at Newbury tomorrow (Thursday) and might represent good value after being labelled an “eyecatcher” by a Racing Post analyst in her seasonal reappearance in June.
The Richard Hannon-trained Siyouni filly achieved three successive narrow second place finishes in her last three of four starts as a two-year-old.
She made her comeback in a Novice Stakes event for three-year-old fillies over six furlongs at Windsor on June 3 and after being slow away made headway from the rear against the nearside rail from two furlongs out.
She edged left but kept on well inside the final furlong.
“Eyecatcher”, said the Racing Post comments.
She runs in a Novice handicap over seven furlongs tomorrow (Thursday) and Joe Leavy rides her for the first time.
She has to carry nine stone and eight pounds off an official rating of 83.
Her last start suggested she would enjoy the step up in trip.
However, bookmakers don’t rate her chances and have her at around 20/1.
The race is off at 18H55 SA time in the evening.
