Hi all,
With Exeter being abandoned we are down to just two selections at Doncaster
Doncaster
3:15 – Ballymagroarty Boy – 7/2 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – The selection a useful enough handicap hurdler last season made an encouraging debut over fences when 5th of 12 at Chepstow 77-days ago. Has had a wind-op since but has the potential to progress over the larger obstacles. Best form over hurdles came on soft ground and at around 3m so both underfoot conditions and distance shouldn’t be a problem for the 7-year-old.
3:50 – Storm Goddess – 6/1 @ Bet365 – Won a good ground C&D maiden hurdle 12 months ago. The mare didn’t really go on from that win but was highly tried on occasions. Made an encouraging return to action when 5th at Wincanton two starts back before struggling in a hot contest behind the useful Epatante at Newbury. Back in calmer waters today, should be fine on soft ground and trainer Charlie Longsdon is 3-10 + 25 in the past 14-days.
Cheers
John
