Hi all,
On the eve of Royal Ascot. I have selections from Nottingham & Windsor.
Nottingham
6:50 – Eeh Bah Gum – 9/4 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – The selection is on a losing run that goes back almost 3-years. However, a reproduction of his ¾ length 4th of 19 in the 2019 Epsom Dash, off 18lb higher, would be more than good enough here. Seemed to have missed out on a good opportunity when only 4th of 6 at Musselburgh 9-days ago. Four of his five career wins have come when making all and the 6-year-old gets the first time cheekpieces today. Needs quick ground to be seen at his best.
Windsor
7:00 – Smeaton’s Light – 4/1 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – A winner of a Thirsk maiden(good to firm) on his seasonal reappearance. The 3-year-old seemed unsuited by the track at Newmarket but bounced back to form when a length 2nd of 6 at Yarmouth back on quick ground 13-days ago. Up 4lb but remains on a competitive mark.
Cheers
John
