Hi all,
Wetherby
3:35 – Valleres – 3/1 @ William Hill – Won a point in Ireland before joining Alan King. Satisfactory first start for new yard in a Kempton bumper in February. Hurdle debut today and should be suited by today’s distance.
5:45 – Proschema – 2/1 @ Bet365 & Coral – A useful middle-distance handicapper on the flat when with Tom Dascombe. Just the three starts over hurdles for Dan Skelton and won over C&D last November. Lesser show back here on his next start. First run since which suggests something was amiss that day. Looks on a competitive mark for his handicap hurdle debut.
Punchestown
4:00 – Bishops Quarter – 2/1 @ Coral & Ladbrokes – First start for new trainer today and the 8-year-old’s first run for 385-days. In what looks a poor race he should go close for the powerful Gordon Elliott/Jamie Codd combination.
Cheers
John
