Diary: September 21 2007

There are a few runners from our list to follow in action tomorrow.  Bo McGinty goes in the 2.55 at Ayr, carrying a 6 lbs penalty for his recent win at Haydock.  He does not have the bet strike rate and despite having a good draw he may find himself anchored by the penalty.

We have 4 runners in the Silver Cup at 4.40.  The lightly raced Utmost Respect looks to have the best chance on form but has a middle draw that might prove a hinderance.  Stable companions and full brothers Blazing Heights and Geojimali represent Jim Goldie.  Geojimali won the race last yaer and has slipped back to a reasonable mark after winning earlier in the season.  Pacific Pride is a course and distance winner but his recent form has been abysmal.

Osteopathic Remedy posted his best effort for a while when 2nd at Thirsk on his latest start but has gone up 3 lbs in the process.  He runs in the 5.15.

There are 2 runners from our list in the 2.45 at Newbury.  Bauer needs to improve to take a hand in this but that is not out of the question given the nature of his win in a Chester handicap.  The drop in trip seems unlikely to benefit him.  Halicarnassus has won twice this season and has a telling turn of foot. He has shaped as though tomorrow’s trip may suit him.
