Alert holds all the aces at Monmore

T1 Romeo On Alert looks to hold outstanding claims of landing the A8 that gets proceedings underway at Monmore (19:24).

Paul Slater’s dog has gradually found his form after returning from a break, finishing a fine third before showing a good attitude to dig deep and score by a short-head last time out after getting impeded.

The grader has left him unpenalised for that success and the son of Wheres Pedro’s best recent time of 29.25 is better than anything his rivals have achieved.

Romeo On Alert also looks well drawn in the red-jacket, having won six of his 16 starts from it, and has a strike rate of 50 per cent in the grade.

If getting away in his best style he can boss the inside and will be an extremely tough nut to crack if getting on the bunny.

Hera can prove too hot to handle

In the A3 (20:56), T1 Rubicon Hera looks drawn for action. Patricia Cowdrill’s bitch is a useful sort in the grade when timing it right at the lids, as she showed when producing a 4.36 sectional back in May to make all to score by 5 3/4 lengths in a time of 28.39.

The daughter of Kinloch Brae then suffered a slight setback but has been showing plenty of early dash since returning to action without getting much luck in running.

Rubicon Hera looks to be coming to the boil nicely and the return to the red jacket from which she has a 20 per cent strike rate is a big plus.

With an inexperienced pup on her immediate outside and the rest of the field consisting of middle and wide runners, this looks a great opportunity for Rubicon Hera to flash from the traps and lead the bend for an all the way success.
