Hi all,
I’m going away for a seven-day holiday to recharge the batteries. I will be back a week on Friday. Before I go, I do have some selections for today.
Newcastle
4:05 – Bowerman – 15/8 @ William Hill & Ladbrokes – Won over C&D 59-days ago and the handicapper has put up the lightly raced 5-year-old 9lb for that win. This demands more from him, but he looks capable of defying it and remains the one they all have to beat.
Nottingham
4:15 – Motawaj – 6/4 @ William Hill & Ladbrokes – Improved with each start as a 2-year-old ending last season with a close-up third in a Doncaster maiden (good to soft). The son of Dubawi, out of mare who improved with age and racing has been gelded and shaped like a horse who could improve plenty in his second season. Handicap debut off a mark of 74 looks more than workable on his seasonal return.
Until next week
Cheers
John
