Quiet day yesterday with our selection falling at the last when beaten, as we start Grand National week with the Irish National at Fairyhouse, we look forward to the Aintree meeting on Thursday.
Racing at Chepstow, Kempton and Plumpton with the Irish National selections at the bottom.
Kempton
14:20 – Han Solo Berger at 7/2 is a strong each-way play a regular hitting the frame and fancied to go one better today in this strong Kempton card which sits awkwardly after All Weather Championship Finals day just a few days back.
Han Solo Berger 7/2 2pt ew
14:55 – no bet
15:30 – IMPERIAL SANDS is the bet of the day, the favourite looks beatable and sets the market for us at evens, the 4/1 on offer on our selection who should break and go hard from the front for Archie Watson and Hollie Doyle.
IMPERIAL SANDS 4/1 5PT EW
16:02 – LAVENDERS BLUE like the previous selection likes to lead from the front, at 5/2 is not a big price but is a confident selection all the same (will multiple with the 15:30).
LAVENDERS BLUE 5/2 3PT EW
16:35 – VIBRANCE for James Fanshawe with Doyle on board again is well drawn and can be produced off the pace.
VIBRANCE 11/2 2.5PT EW
17:10 FRESH again from the Fanshawe yard is a selection.
FRESH 5/1 1.5PT EW
Chepstow
15:10 – ASHUTOR for the Nicholls yard was a selection at Cheltenham and he looks well in despite being high in the weights, when performing well on soft carrying heavier weight, he should improve for the better ground today.
ASHUTOR 7/2 2PT EW
15:45 – BUSTER THOMAS is fancied in what looks a match against Gleno. At the bottom of the weights and when carrying heavy performing well when showing good speed over 2m4 and 2m5, a step up today in trip on better ground should allow his pace to come to the fore.
BUSTER THOMAS 10/3 2PT EW
Redcar – no bets
Plumpton
15:55 – Not A Role Model if he handles the ground should see this out and he has been effective finishing second in November to our selection Buster Thomas at Chepstow, that form looks strong and he is fancied to run a big race.
Not A Role Model 4/1 2.5PT ew
16:55 – FAIRWAY FREDDY if he can avoid a tussle at the front can get the best of Iconic Muddle current 9/4 market fav, performing well when winning at course and distance in early March.
FAIRWAY FREDDY 4/1 2.5PT EW
