Hi all,
Back in the hot seat today. It was nice to sign off with a winner on Monday. Today’s three selections are from Haydock.
Haydock
2:20 – Moss Gill – 5/1 @ Bet365 & Paddy Power – Wasn’t seen at his best in a Group 1 at Meydan over the winter. Last year’s best from brings him right into the mix and the first time cheekpieces are applied today. Best form so far has come at York but if the headgear has the desired effect, he will be in the mix.
2:55 – La Lune – 9/2 @ Paddy Power & Betfair Sportsbook – Faces different ground to when making a winning seasonal return at Nottingham last month. Lightly raced for a 5-year-old, just eight career starts, she remains capable of better returned to 1m 4f and this doesn’t look the strongest of Group 3’s.
3:30 – Safe Voyage – 4/1 @ Paddy Power & Betfair Sportsbook – The 8-year-old won this race in 2019 and his Haydock form figures are an impressive 11112. At his best on soft/heavy he was well beaten on his seasonal return in the Group 1 Lockinge Stakes at Newbury and although he has to give away a 5lb penalty to most of his rivals won’t be far away back at his favourite track.
Cheers
John
