Hi all,
Cobolobo‘s win at Haydock yesterday made up for Sabdina Fairchild’s luckless run at Dundalk on Tuesday.
Three selections today running at Wincanton & Kempton.
Wincanton
12:55 – Cill Anna – 7/2 @ Bet365 – An expensive purchase after winning a good ground Irish point in March. Hasn’t set the world alight on her two starts in bumpers this autumn but hurdling could see her in a much better light, as should the step up to 2m 5 ½ f. Trainer Paul Nicholls has an exceptional record with his runners in novice & maiden hurdles at Wincanton in November/December – 12 winners from 19 runners 63% +4.76 A/E 1.33 14 placed 74%. That impressive record improves with those sent of favourite – 10 winners from 11 runners 91% +5.26. The only runner to fail to win, fell at the last when still in the lead.
2:40 – Lizzie Langton – 11/4 @ Paddy Power – The mare won this corresponding race 12 months ago off 3lb lower. Last of 5 on heavy ground at Lingfield on her seasonal reappearance over an inadequate 2m 4f 16-days ago. Should run lot better today, now returned to a more suitable distance. A good chance of following up last years win.
Kempton
7:15 – Siberian Kinight – 11/4 – Gen – Improved for the step into nursery company when 2nd of 12, beaten a head over C&D last week. Just 1lb higher than last time but does step up two notches in class today. Will needs to improve to win but given he still looked a a shade green at the finish, he’s probably capable of doing so.
Cheers
John
