Horse Racing: Ladbroke Hurdle, Sandown
The progressive Monte Cinto is an unoriginal selection for
this Saturday's Ladbroke Hurdle at Sandown, but he was so
impressive over the course and distance last month that he
has to get the vote, even with an 11lb rise in the weights.
The ex-French gelding had been disappointing in his three
runs in novice company but, after acclimatizing, he is now
unbeaten in all three handicap starts this season. He could
well start shorter than the 5/1 on offer at the time of writing.
The main danger, and nearest rival in our betting, is the
Martin Pipe trained Escompteur (6/1) who looks the best of
a possible 6 runners from the stable, and who would have been
unbeaten in three novice hurdles had he not fallen when clear
at Exeter last time out.
The worry with him is that he is stepping out of novice company
for the first time, and that could put his jumping under even
greater pressure. Best of the outsiders could be Emanic, returning
from an unsuccessful chasing campaign, and who could well
squeeze into our 4 places at a tasty price (currently 25/1).
Selections:
Monte Cinto @ 5/1 & Emanic @ 25/1 (each way).
