Part of me died inside when i saw Sadiq hadn’t won. I fully expected it to build on what it had achieved thus far, but got pegged back late on, so annoying!
Bondi Beach Boy 17:25 Thirsk 4-1 Ladbrokes
Yet another Betcirca favourite racing today, although i think the last time i tipped it, it was when it came 3rd, when going for 4 in a row.. hoping for a bit of better luck with Bondi Beach Boy today. Last time out he finished 3 1/2 lengths ahead of Ingenti, who’s won since. Back in 3rd was Pull The Pin, who lost to Bondi Beach Boy twice (by an ever increasing margin each time) and then stepped up in grade to win a classs 5 race next time out. Figure that one out.
Swendab is becoming frustrating for supporters, 3 2nd places in a row, and every time he’s looked as if he’s coming to win his race. Oil Strike popped up after tumbling down the handicap to land a class 6 race last time, and is favourite today, but can he repeat that performance with a 10lbs rise? Not sure.
Azma 20:45 Newmarket 6-1 Bet365
Azma looked unlucky last time when being squeezed for room and hampered one furlong out. She’s won around here and has several placed efforts to her name over C&D. She carries top weight after landing a similar contest to this not long ago. She was then beaten in a class 3 handicap which featured the likes of Henry The Aviator and Basseterre. That form looks strong in the context of this race, and 6-1 is a massive price, especially given the each-way value on offer, i’d be amazed if she didn’t place at the very least. An each-way bet to nothing as they’d say.
