Hi all,
Sadly, Sandy Boy managed to throw a way his race in the final 100yds. Today’s three selections run at Chepstow & Kempton.
Chepstow
2:05 – On The Road – 9/2 @Bet365 – The selection made a good seasonal return when 4th of 9 over hurdles at Uttoxeter 31-days ago. Returns to chasing off what looks a good handicap mark, despite carrying top weight of 11-13 here. Has won on heavy but all his other six career wins have come on soft so underfoot conditions should be ideal. The one to beat now down in class.
Kempton
4:40 – Silverturnstogold – 4/1 @ Bet365 & Paddy Power – Won here over a mile in October 2018 and ran arguably as well when 2nd of 12 here in March. Might be better over a mile but has solid from on turf over 7f this summer and looks interesting in the first-time blinkers for a drop back to 7f here.
7:10 – Irene May – 6/1 @ Bet365 or 11/2 – Gen – The selection is lightly raced, just the seven career starts, three on the all-weather. First go at 7f today but was doing her best work at the finish when 4th of 10 at Wolverhampton, over 6f, 18-days ago to think she will stay today’s extra furlong.
Cheers
John
