Hi all,
It was a case of hitting the crossbar on Thursday but both selections ran well although with a better start Elzaam’s Dream would surely have won at Wolverhampton.
Dundalk
8:15 – Monsieur Piquer – 9/1 @ Paddy Power & Betfair Sportsbook – The selection seemed to bounce back to form when 2nd of 14, beaten 1 ¾ lengths, 17-days ago. That performance came over 1m 4f but the drop back to 1m 2 ½ shouldn’t be too much of an issue. The 3-year-old has been dropped 1lb and does look capable of a bit more improvement.
Wolverhampton
8:30 – Clem A – 13/2 @ Bet365 – A winner on turf back in August, off 1lb lower. The selection wasn’t disgraced when 5th of 13 on his first start on the surface 13-days ago. That was his first start for 72-days, so he’s entitled to be fitter today. The extra furlong should suit and Adam Kirby has been booked for the ride.
Cheers
John
