Hi all,
Today’s selections are from Catterick, Leicester and Lingfield.
Leicester
2:50 – Ainsdale – 100/30 @ Bet365 – Improved for rain softened ground with an October hat trick, 3-3 soft/heavy. Not seen out until finishing 4th of 11 at Haydock 10-days ago. That was promising effort from the 3-year-old who looks capable of winning another race, if he gets soft ground. Trainer form isn’t great at present but he will do for me.
Catterick
2:00 – Outrun The Storm – 3/1 @ Bet365 – Improved for the step into nursery company when coming from the rear to win at Ayr (good to soft) 18-days ago. He was slowly away that day so in the circumstances did well to win. Should be better at 7f and looks the sort to improve with more experience. Trainer Richard Fahey has won this race five times in the past ten years.
Lingfield
4:40 – Thunder Flash – 11/4 @ Bet365 – The selection won a small race C&D two starts back (awarded the race in the stewards’ room) before finishing 3rd of 15 back in a Windsor handicap last month. Clearly effective over C&D and looks open to a bit more improvement. Given his hold up style he wouldn’t want a slowly run race but provided he gets a good even gallop to chase should go close.
Cheers
John
