Friday Selections – April 9th 2021

Hi all,

The Shunter’s jumping didn’t hold up when it mattered yesterday. On to day two of the Aintree and two selections from the Grand National Festival.

Aintree

3:25 – Fakir D’oudairies – 3/1 @ Paddy Power & Betfair Sportsbook – Finished runner-up to Allaho in the Ryanair Chase.  He was not match for the impressive winner that day but faces nothing of that calibre here. Is the one to beat if this doesn’t come to quick after Cheltenham.

4:40 – Cape Gentlemen – 11/2 @ Bet365 – Made it 2-3 over hurdles when winning the Grade 3 Dovecote Novices’ Hurdle at Kempton (good). Last season’s Irish Cesarewitch winner is rated 100 on the level and the best of the 5-year-old has yet to be seen over hurdles. The drying ground will suit and he could prove good enough.

Cheers

John
