Well, that was meant to be a quiet Sunday with a few taster-bets for the Flat season.
After our opening 5/2 fancy was chinned on the line it could potentially have been one-of-those-days and the drift on Baron Samedi from 8/1 to 20/1 did not inspire confidence, but it won, as part of a mad half hour where from 16:00 to 16:30 we had a 20/1 winner and a 23/1 double land, so much for a snoozy Sunday!
A return of over 60 points for a Sunday….bring on the flat I guess.
To be clear, likely to be a quieter week, ahead of the Guineas meeting on Saturday with the P&L and Jumps 20/21 review to be provided.
Today:
AYR
14:10 – COMANCHE FALLS sets the best speed figures out of the 7 runners and is down in the weights, carrying nigh on a stone more when in Class 5 company. If he can set those fractions today he is already a winner over the distance, the ground may be an issue but having performed well on Good one would hope it is not too Firm – well drawn and fancied to go well.
COMANCHE FALLS 11/4 2.5PT EW
15:15 – Summa Peto returns having been last season in class 1 company at Ascot, extended over a mile today.
Summa Peto 3/1 1.5PT ew

16:50 Katherine Place should be favourite ahead of the fav, Spring Bloom who may just be in the grip of the handicapper.
