Tuesday Selections – August 16th 2022

Hi all,

Today’s selections are from Hamilton, Kempton and Chelmsford.

Hamilton

4:45 – Glam De Vega – 13/8 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – Handicap debutant Glam De Vega should be suited by the step up to 1m 1f in the Hamilton feature. Given he’s by Lope De Vega and his dam won soft ground any further ease in the going shouldn’t inconvenience the colt either. A best priced 13/8 isn’t very exciting but he looks the best bet on the Hamilton card.

Kempton

3:00 – Moon Island – 9/2 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – Did well at Kempton last season with form figures 211 with the win coming in a C&D nursery last October. Disappointing on both turf starts earlier this season and there is a possibility that the daughter of Oasis Dream hasn’t trained on. However, she been given a short break and the return to the all-weather and the fitting of the first-time tongue tie mean she’s worth a chancing here.

Chelmsford

8:05 – Engrave – 5/1 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – All five of the mare’s career wins have come over C&D and she was back to form returned to the all-weather when a 2-length 2nd of 9 here 7-days ago. Only beaten by an improving 3-year-old that day and she’s off the same mark here. A quick turnaround shouldn’t pose any problem for her as she 2-2 when racing within 7-days of her last run.

Cheers

John
