Hi all,
Today’s selections are from Pontefract and Windsor.
Pontefract
4:45 – Round The Island – 4/1 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – A six time C&D winner the 9-year-old is on a bit of losing run but he’s finished runner-up on his last two starts. He was beaten just ½ length over C&D two starts back and then looked the most likely winner when clear inside the final furlong before hanging right in the closing stages at Ripon last time. Not the most reliable these days but always respected here.
Windsor
6:45 – Anythingtoday – 4/1 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – The selection was placed to win his first starts after switching to present trainer George Boughey last winner, Form has an in and out look since but he’s dropped to 3lb below his last winning mark and seemed to respond well to the application of the first-time blinkers when a ¾ length 2nd of 10 over C&D last month. He’s been nudged up 1lb since, but Ryan Moore is up for the first time.
7:15 – Perfect Myth – 9/2 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – A former useful hurdler the mare shaped with plenty of encouragement on first start for new trainer Stuart Kittow when a ¾-length 2nd of 10 at Chepstow last month. She was doing her best work at the finish that day. Lightly raced on the flat she’s got a very low mark (53) on the flat compared to her hurdles one.
Cheers
John
