Hi all,
Today’s selections are from Navan, Thirsk, and Doncaster.
Navan
3:15 – Only Spoofing – 8/1 @ Paddy Power & Betfair Sportsbook – The selection has hardly beaten a rival on his three starts this season but he came into last year’s race in no form before winning, He has had the same preparation as 12 months ago and is 5lb below his year’s winning mark. The 20/1 available when the market opened has long gone but with ground set to suit, I’m still expecting a good run from the 8-year-old.
Thirsk
4:05 – Tinto – 5/1 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – Shaped with plenty of promise on his first start since switching to the Michael Dods yard when a 1 ¾-length sixth of 10 over C&D last month. He didn’t get the clearest of runs inside the final furlong that day and although he’s on a losing run that goes back almost two years. He’s on good mark when all the cards fall right.
Doncaster
6:05 – Lady Reset – 7/2 – Gen – Was well placed to win five races last season, including over C&D. She’s returned from a 7-month lay off with a couple of runner-up efforts over hurdles and although she’s back on the flat off a 4lb higher mark than for her last win at Sandown is expected to go close.
Cheers
John
