The two I like in the race are TYCHY & ONE PUTRA.
Tychy has ran some good races here & is also well
handicapped on those to give her a chance today. She has a
decent draw in 11 & may be able to bag the stands rail & be
up there all the way. If coming on for her reappearance run
where she was bumped at the start but showed good speed
before being eased she has the form to win this but at the
price looks a decent e/w bet. The trainer is in excellent
form & a gut feeling that this is the target. There seems to
be quite a few hold up horses in this race & given the
course out in front may be the place to be. One Putra has shown excellent speed in his last two races
over 6f in two top class
handicaps.
He is unexposed at this trip & looks like an
improving 3yr old & despite his draw in 5 a number of
runners to his outside are hold up horses so should be able
to get a decent position closer to the stands rail. At the
price obviously a win bet.Flipando ran really well last time at York in a very good
handicap & should be able to get a good position from his
draw & track the speed.
Pedrillo has come out of that York
race & franked the form in a good handicap at the weekend &
feel this will run a good race as well. Loads of pace in this race & the two I like in this are SKY
CRUSADER & FLIPANDO, both e/w with 4 places on offer.Todays lay of the day is a place lay of Texas Gold. This is
a risky lay considering Texas Gold has been in fine form,
has gone well here before & 5f is his ideal trip.
However he races off a mark of 101 today & his three
previous efforts at 100 + have resulted in him being out of
the frame on all occasions. His ideal ground is G/F & I feel
it may not be fast enough for him today & given his running
style will need all the luck in running today. There appears
to be at least 4 others that look capable of winning & at
such a short price for the place am prepared to take the
risk today. His recent form is excellent but I just wonder
if these recent good efforts & the combination of factors
will see a below par run today.
Briefly Sky Crusader is running really well & should be
suited by going back to 8f.
The pace in the race should suit his style of racing & if he
gets the breaks can see this pouncing in the final furlong.
He still has potential to improve & looks a fair price.
There's little
between him, Langford & hartshead but Flipando comes here a
little fresher than these & is the choice.
