I would argue his true chances at least 10% don't understand the 22.00 price.
First OR was 70. IMO moves like an 80 rated horse, Although the entire field is lightly raced he has an opening OR of a horse with ability. I am pretty certain he hasn't been trying at all yet.
Little bit more info re Elite Shadow ...third foal out of Silver Elite ( 3wins rated low 60's) , home breed and all three have been trained by Gay Kellaway. By Finjaan who was very speedy and dam won over 5/6f.Lightiy raced 4 yo half brother has shown promise in two races over a mile ( last ran in January ) but is by Mawatheeq, so bit more stamina there.
Form of last two races working out ok .. third in Newcastle race Wazim won yesterday on a mark of 69. Previously 2nd to Bungee Jump, who has since won at Lingfield off a mark of 76
As you know I'm a great believer in stable form and Gay Kellaways runners appear to be below form .. one win in 20 odd runners , winner back in January and a 4/9 fav beaten yesterday
Would be more interested in both Elite Shadow and Elite Treaty ( once handicapped ) if stable was in form .. but would take a leap of faith to see them achieving ratings of around 80
