Reg Hollinshead’s one eyed sprinter Gilded Cove has run 61 times in his career but only 7 of these have been on turf. His 12 wins have some at Wolverhampton (10) and Southwell (2). He runs in the 2.50 at Carlisle tomorrow, his first ever visit to that track. He runs off a rating of 64 – he has won off 70.
Prince Evelith has won 3 of his last 4 starts and I would be hopeful that he can add to that tally this season for canny trainer Alan Swinbank. He holds a good chance in the Carlisle 3.25.
Passion Fruit certainly does her winning normally north of Watford Gap as her wins thus far have come at Carlisle, Ayr, Newcastle and Thirst. She tries her luck in the 3.10 as far south as Leicester where distance and ground look ideal.
Imperial Gain only has one career win to his credit but his move to the stable of Milton Bradley may well bring about some improvement. The horse has shown ability in the past and finished strongly in 3rd place two runs ago at Sandown. He has a win in him possibly at decent odds. He runs in the 4.55 at Leicester.
Up at Redcar Salaasa represents our list to follow in the 3.15. Salaasa was last of 9 at Sandown after winning at Pontefract. There may have been something amiss at Sandown and worth another chance.
Hasaad won at the start of the month at Ascot The step up to 10 furlongs for the Zetland Gold Cup (Redcar 3.50) should not be a problem and he looks a leading contender.
Currahee is related to a few winners but is yet to show a great deal on the racecourse himself. He runs in the 5.30 for trainer Julie Camacho. Some rain would help his cause.
That is about all for today.
