Hi all,
The winning run came to an end yesterday. Today, I have four selections from Bath, Lingfield & Gowran Park.
Bath
3:30 – Sonnetina – 7/1 @ Paddy Power – Put in her best effort since winning at Brighton in May 2019 when 3rd of 12 over C&D 50-days ago. The form of that race has worked out well with several winners coming out of the race. Can race off the same mark here and is just 1lb above her last winning mark. Slight concern about her recent absence and trainer form but otherwise she’s got a good chance.
5:05 – Arthalot – 4/1 @ Bet365 – Just the five starts and the selection put in a career best effort when stepped up to 2m at Chepstow 32-days ago. Drop back to 1m 5f shouldn’t inconvenience with the first time cheekpieces applied. Kirby booked and I expect the 3-year-old to be thereabouts at the finish.
Lingfield
2:10 – Folk Dance – 100/30 @ William Hill – Waliyak probably deserves to head the market with Ray Dawson taking off a handy 5lb. However, my preference is for Folk Dance. The filly is improving with racing and came from behind to win a Newmarket handicap last time. Raised 6lb for that success she’s going the right way and the step up to 1m 2f can bring out further improvement.
Gowran Park
2:35 – Blankiedoodie – 11/2 @ Bet365 –A previous course winner. The 7-year-old also shaped well over 1m 1 ½ f here when 3rd of 15 two starts back before finishing runner-up on heavy ground at Bellewstown just 6-days ago. Can race off the same mark and a reproduction of that run will see him go close.
Cheers
John
