Hi all,
Concierge landed some nice bets as he was backed in from 4/1 to 13/8 favourite before the off at Wolverhampton on Monday.
There’s plenty of racing around the UK with five meetings scheduled for Wednesday. There are four selection today as I really couldn’t split them.
Musselburgh
3:40 – Royal Cosmic – 5/1 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – A six-time winner on the grass and all-weather, including three times here, won over hurdles at the third attempt two starts back over C&D. Was sent off a 9/2 joint favourite for her handicap hurdle debut here 25-days ago but clipped heels and stumbled on the home turn. That run can be forgiven and Brian Hughes who rode for her win in novice company is back in the saddle today.
4:40 – Pammi – 4/1 @ Bet365 – Remains a maiden over hurdles after seven starts but the mare has been running well enough to think she can win in the sphere. A good 4th of 13 over 2m here 25-days ago shaping like she would be worth another try over further. Brian Hughes replaces a 7lb conditional today and a big run should be forthcoming.
Kempton
7:00 – Swiss Cheer – 10/3 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – Finally got her head in front at the 6th attempt at Chelmsford two starts back. The handicapper raised him 8lb for that success but he was only beaten a head, off his new mark back at Chelmsford last month. Can race off the same mark and he should get a better pace to chase in today’s bigger field.
8:30 – Violet’s Lads – 13/2 @ Bet365 – The 6-year-old won over C&D back in November, off 3lb lower. Has run respectably on three subsequent starts and last time would have finished closer but didn’t get the clearest of runs inside the final furlong at Chelmsford last month. As her 1 win from 23 runs indicates, she’s not the easiest to win with but when all the cards fall right has another race in her.
Cheers
John
