Hi all,
It’s the start of the four-day St Leger Festival and I have two selections from Doncaster and one from Kempton.
Doncaster
2:10 – Dakota Gold – 3/1 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – Bounced back to form when winning the Beverley Bullet. Before finishing runner-up to an improving 3-year-old at York on Sunday. Two of his career wins have come when running within seven days of his last start so the quick turnaround shouldn’t be a problem.
3:15 – Cloak Of Spirits – 5/1 @ Bet365 – Finished third in this year’s 1000 Guineas and has placed in Group 3 company on her last two starts at Epsom & Deauville. The drop back to 7f should suit and she can gain a well-deserved success if Jubiloso fails to give her running again.
Kempton
2:25 – Itkaann – 3/1 @ Bet365 – The selection showed a liking for C&D when winning on his final juvenile start. Sowed he had trained on from two to three when landing a Lingfield handicap, back on the grass, 31-days ago. Up 7lb for that success but he’s going the right way and can win more races.
Cheers
John
