Wednesday Selections – February 17th 2021

Hi all,

Pyramid Place kept the mini winning run going at Catterick yesterday but there was a small Rule 4 deduction which cut the profit. Today’s four selections are from Hereford and Dundalk.

Hereford

3:05 – A Time To Shine – 5/1 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – The Oliver Sherwood yard is going through a quiet spell but the selection looks worth chancing on his chase debut. The 6-year-old shaped with encouragement on both his starts over hurdles in the autumn, including a good third to Albert Bartlett contender Barbados Bucks at Southwell. Has the pedigree to be a better chaser than hurdler and interesting that connections send over fences now off a mark of 115.

3:35 – Kiera Royale – 6/1 @ Bet365 – It took the selection 32 starts to break her maiden tag when relishing the mud to win at FFos Las 13-days ago. Up 8lb but today’s extra furlong should suit and trainer David Rees has an above average record with last time out winners in NH handicaps – 8 winners from 35 runners 23% +25.23 17 places 49%.

4:05 – Trump Lady – 15/2 @ Bet365 – Looks progressive after an all the way win at Warwick 48-days ago. The 6-year-old is open to improvement on her handicap debut but needs to find it off a no more than fair opening mark of 118.

Dundalk

2:55 – Annabelle Rock – 3/1 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – The previous C&D winner could be better drawn in stall 11 but at least the mare comes into the race in form after close-up 2nd of 11 over C&D last month off two 2lb lower.

Cheers

John
