Tuesday..A Few on the List Today
Its the stuff on nightmares today. With only a week until Royal Ascot, this week is the diet before the week of indulgence! I have a shortlist but not much in the way of major wagers today.
Chester Looks Very Difficult for Punters
At Redcar..
Officially Redcar is a seaside town, however the view from the racecourse is dominated by chemical plants and industrial clouds bellowing from huge chimneys. That said I can’t help but love racing at the Teeside venue and will be there today to back a horse I think may land a bit of a touch.
The Redcar straight mile championship is a good series with decent prize money that culminates in a valuable televised 9Channel 4) final at the end of the season. The journey towards the big prize kicks-off this afternoon for Dream Lodge (3.35) in the maile handicap who is making his debut for the Richard Fahey yard. The drop in the handicap and with Frederik Tylicki’s five pounds claim it should mean that Dream Lodge turns out to be a well handicapped horse today.
The Richard Fahey stable are flying and it looks as though this will be another horse, as so many do, to improve for the switch to the Malton trainer. I expect to see steady market support today for the former James Given inmate so I have taken the early price, remember you get Best Odds Guaranteed, so if it drifts you get the bigger SP.
I also like Luc Jordan (4.45) who was a close second last time and should break his maiden today at Redcar.
At Salisbury…
Aromatic (3.55, Salisbury) was one that we gave you last time she ran at Lingfield where she won in workman like fashion. Not impressively but quite easily. That was from a handiap mark of 78 and she is back to turf today running from only a five pounds higher mark. John Gosden still has her entered in next weeks Ribblesdale Stakes at Royal Ascot which looks a remote possibility given her rating but suggests that she has shown quite a lot at home. She looks a filly that likes to do the bear minimum which Jimmy Fortune, who takes over from Richard Mullen, will have to overcome with his usual no nonesense style.
I think Aromatic, who is an improving filly, is well weighted to complete the hat-trick today.
At Southwell….
Jumping at Southwell where I have two on the list. 7.30 Southwell Tony McCoy has been booked by the McCain yard for Empress Orchid who should win. Two career starts under National Hunt rules have yielded 2 seconds and it should be a 1 with a win in this maiden hurdle.
At 8.30 Mizen Ravnen is tough and consistent and has a big chance of winning tonight, although the race looks tricky. Roses in the 9.00 looks the good thing of the day for the Swinbank team who farm thse NH flat races.
Chester just looks a nightmare!
