Wednesday Selections – February 2nd 2022

Hi all,

The first selections for February are from Leicester and Kempton

Leicester

3:50 – Concrete King – 9/2 @ Bet365 – A four-time winner in points on soft/heavy ground. The selection has steadily improved on his three starts over hurdles putting in a personal best when a 4 ¾ length 2nd of 12 in a Lingfield maiden hurdle last time. The hood he wore that day is retained for his handicap hurdle debut

Kempton

7:30 – George Morland – 7/2 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – A C&D winner on his racecourse debut last March. The 4-year-old hasn’t added to that success but posted a career best on RPR’s when ¾-length 2nd of 9 at Lingfield 11-days ago. That was his first start for three months and he was doing his best work at the finish after being caught further back than was ideal.

8:00 – Sassy Rascal – 4/1 @ Bet365 & Coral – The filly came from behind to win at the fifth attempt at Lingfield back in September. Not disgraced on either start in handicap company and last time finished a 1 ½ length 6th of 10. Given she missed the start and had to race wide in the straight she did well in the circumstances to finish as close as she did. Tom Marquand replaces a 7lb apprentice and better is expected.

Cheers

John
