Not a bad day yesterday, Latest Exhibition picked up some place money for us in the big-race at Fairyhouse, sadly we didn’t have the mortgage on the 150/1 winner. The rest of the day was okay, with the multiple paying place money and wins for Lavenders Blue and Fairway Freddy.
As the week builds towards Aintree with the National on Saturday and the festival kicking off on Thursday.
Can the British stop the Irish at Aintree?
As to today:
Pontefract
14:00 – The rage is for Waldkonig, however until he does it he is unproven, a third to Mishriff however last June should give him the race if all goes to plan.
However, Victory Chime is proven over course and distance, carrying heavier weight when performing a fine speed last time at the track.
Victory Chime 6/1 1.5PT ew
14:30 – no bet.
Exeter
14:50 – Art Approval wins but no bet.
Chelmsford
18:00 – Royal Dynasty has been dropped by the handicapper and despite having a similar profile to the 2/1 fav, Thrill Seeker is 8/1 he is an obvious each-way play at the prices.
Royal Dynasty 8/1 1pt ew
18:30 – The fav is hot, Count of Amazonia however, The Gill Brothers at 9/2 is a backable price, significantly down in the weights and having performed carrying much more on his back over course and distance.
The Gill Brothers 9/2 1pt ew
