Sunday Selections – August 8th 2021

Hi all,

We came through a tricky Saturday with two winners and a close-up second. Today’s selections are from Deauville and the Curragh.

Deauville

2:50 – Campanelle – 5/2 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – Won the Commonwealth Cup in the steward’s room at Royal Ascot. Lightly raced she won the Group 1 Prix Morny (6f) here last August. Goes well on soft ground and shouldn’t have an issue with today’s extra half furlong.

Curragh

3:05 – Romantic Proposal – 9/2 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – The selection finished 2 ¾ length behind Gustavus Weston over 5f last time. Prior to that she had won a Listed race over C&D (good). The return to 6f is a plus and she does get 5lb from Gustavus Weston which should help her get closer today.

4:40 – Bopedro – 5/1 @ Bet365 – Wins more than his fair share of races. A previous C&D winner, he finished an excellent 2 length 3rd of 17 to Sirjack Thomas over C&D last time. A hold up horse he needs luck in the run but should be there or thereabouts if he gets it.

Cheers

John
