NAP – Surprise Moment – 15:20 – Lingfield 2-1 b365 2pts
I’ve followed this with much interest. Unbeaten in 3 starts, won a class 3 fillies handicap at Newmarket last time out, not entered in a listed race on the polytrack. Stables first choice jockey rides. Not much more needs to be said.
Danger = Rumh 6-1 B365. Why? It took an age for it to win again (It has contested class 1 races after winning a maiden at Wolverhampton). It won a fillies listed class 1 race in 2011 beating an average bunch, then went on to finish 9th of 9 against Masked Marvel, 12 of 13th behind Gatewood (Since gone to Australia and won a group 2) and 7th of 8th against the impressive Blue Blunting. I could go on and bore you more, essentially, he’s raced against way better animals and this year hes gone back down to a much lower level and finds himself with 2 wins from 4 after the downgrade..
NEXT BEST – Volcancic Wind – 19:10 Kempton 5-1 B365 2pts
I assure you, I am not a godolphin fanboy. I just feel that they warrant being my nap and next best today. Volcanic wind came 2nd in its maiden (the 3rd has won since, winner not run) – went into a maiden race at Kempton and hosed up winning by 3 ½ lengths, making all. I feel this horse has got improvement in it.
Danger: Basseeterre 9/2 BetVictor – To be fair, I could of also picked Kiz Kulesi or True to Form. I like last time out form. Bassetere being an improving 3 year old, I expect him to give Volcanic Wind most to think about.
