Hi all,
Just the one winner yesterday. Today’s selections are from Wolverhampton and Taunton.
Wolverhampton
5:10 – Blue Dawn – 9/4 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – The 3-year-old is bred to be better horse than her official rating of 59 suggests. She’s is 0 wins from 6 runs but has shown enough ability to think she capable of winning a moderate handicap off her present mark. Has been keen on her last two starts but provided she settles better she shouldn’t be far away on her first start on the tapeta.
Taunton
3:15 – Sandford Castle – 11/2 @ Bet365 & Paddy Power – A 10-year-old 19 race maiden hardly shouts winner but the selection put in a good effort when 2nd of 10 at Wincanton 15-days ago. Nudged up 2lb for that performance but if he can back that effort up will be in the mix.
3:50 – Time To Tinker – 11/2 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – Given the form of the Paul Nicholls yard I’m happy to take a chance on the selection here. The 5-year-old looked a horse with a future jumping when finishing runner-up on his bumper debut at Exeter last season. A poor run when the 11/10 favourite at Wincanton in March and only slightly bettered that effort when 6th of 12 at Chepstow on his seasonal return 63-days ago. Second run since a wind-op and gets the first-time tongue tie so better expected.
Cheers
John
