Hi all,
Pink Sheets was a well backed winner for us at Warwick for a small profit to early advised prices.
Storm Alex is on the way and its likely to bring some heavy rain to parts of the UK over the next two days. Which means I’m going to avoid the turf action and go over to Dundalk for a couple of selections on the all-weather.
Dundalk
7:15 – Irish Ambassador – 8/1 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – The 4-year-old remains a maiden after ten starts but finished close-up in two C&D handicaps in the early part of the year. Returned from a 196-day lay off to finish 4th of 14 over C&D 14-days ago. Challenged on what looked the unfavoured inner last time so did well to get a close as he did. There’s a handicap in the gelding off his present mark when all the cards fall right. Which hopefully will be tonight.
8:15 – Eaglemont – 3/1 @ Bet365 – Put in a career best when winning on his handicap debut here 7-days ago. Nudged up 8lb for his last week’s success by the 3-year-old is unexposed on the all-weather and should be suited by the step up to 1m 4f. Looks the one to beat.
Cheers
John
