Hi all,
Today’s selections are from Ayr and Cartmel.
Ayr
7:00 – Tilsitt – 11/4 @ Bet365 – Caught the eye last time when a 3 ¼ length 4th of 9 to one of today’s rivals Tommy G at Musselburgh last time. He got no run whatsoever from the 2f mark until well inside the final furlong that day. Get’s 3lb form the winner here and has a good chance of finishing ahead of that one today. A winner over C&D (good to firm) last summer, from 5lb lower, he should go close.
Cartmel
2:45 – Calliope – 4/1 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – The selection won over C&D last August and is now 13lb lower. Shaped a bit better in the reapplied cheekpieces when a 7 ¼ length fourth of 5 at Sedgefield last time. The return to this venue is a plus, she’s on an attractive mark and her trainer Dianne Sayer is 3-8 38% with her runners in the past 14-days.
5:30 – Tokyo Getaway – 11/4 – Gen –Trainer Jimmy Moffatt and jockey Charlotte Jones combined for a hat trick here on Saturday and they could have another winner here. The selection must be respected if reproducing the form of her first two starts at Haydock for her new yard last season. Not as good when last seen in action in a better race 100-days ago but the blinkers replace the cheekpieces and she ran well in them on the only other occasion she wore them when trained in Ireland. If she handles the track the top-weight won’t be far away.
Cheers
John
