2.15 Skadrak 4/5 15 pts Finally set to make its second start. On debut good effort as Ive spoken about before behind Atlantic Sport who looks a nice prospect even though he didnt quite boost the form as much as I thought he would in a group 2 afterwards. Going back to that first run he was one of three in line at the finish with the rest well beaten and yet the fourth, fifth and sixth have boosted that form by winning since. The entries say it all about how the horse is fancied, guineas, st james palace and i expect he will be tough to beat. Us pedigree suggests a/w wont be a huge problem and after all why would it be risked on that surface if new trainer Meehan didnt think it was worth it. Slugger O Toole was quite eyecatching last week but he has bumped into one here.

1.50 Ask 8/11 bet3 bog 15 pts for me is the best and classy horse in the race and he looks the typical stoute older horse improver as he did last year in a disrupted campaign with two wins and a very frustrating and slightly unlucky second in the Can. int. If this race was at 12f I would really fancy him, the lesser trip is a bit of a concern because whilst it was not paceless at all last season, it shaped more like a 12f horse as the season went on and there is a concern that if this turns tactical he could be done for a turn of foot but im struggling to find what to beat him with and he might just have the class to win whatever.
3.35 Dar Re Mi 11/10 bet3 bog 15 pts probably not much of a betting race with not much to go on and with a short fav but on what has been shown so far of these and the entries that suggest better is expected, it looks the stand out pick. Put up quite a nice win on debut and there have been a couple of winners from that race, especially the nice Candy horse who won next time beating the potentially useful Melodramatic. The extra distance looks beneficial, ground wont be an issue and trainer doing very well.
4.10 Captain Webb 6/4 boy bog 15 pts Three out of three so far for this Johnston horse and he can go in under the penalty today. This looks a much hotter race than lto but the victory was one of the easiest victories you will ever see, 20 lengths and could have been 30 lengths. That followed a couple of nice early wins as well and he looks continually to be improving, he is ahead of the handicapper here but he might be even better than a handicaps the direction he is heading and could be set for pattern company soon if he continues this progress and if he is, then he should be expected really to take this. |
