Hi all,
Involved saved the day on Monday with a decisive win at Windsor. Today’s selections are from Ayr & Ripon.
Ayr
6:50 – Be Proud – 5/1 @ Bet365 – Twice a winner at Newcastle last year. The selection is 0 wins from 14 runs on the grass but came close to breaking his maiden tag on the grass when beaten a over C&D 22 -days ago. Probably needs a sound surface to be at his best but is handicapped to pop up in sprint handicap like this before long.
8:30 – Donnachies Girl – 10/3 & Paddy Power & Betfair Sportsbook – The mare has made a decent return to action. Finishing 5th at Beverley and then 3rd of 9 Musselburgh 13-days ago. Looked to be travelling like the most likely winner coming to three out but just seemed to find her stamina run out inside the final furlong. Drop to 1m 5f should suit and she gets to run off the same mark as last time.
Ripon
8:15 – Sudona – 9/2 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – You always have to respect a William Haggas horse at Ripon so likely favourite Choral Work is sure to be popular with punters. However, at the prices I like the claims of top-weight Sudona. The 5-year-old has a 5lb penalty to carry for winning at Pontefract 7-days ago but can still race in Class 5 company. That was a career best effort from the mare but given her present form she worth following.
Cheers
John
