Not much joy from yesterday’s preview with Souffleur finishing 2nd. There do seem to have been a few hard lucks stories in the spring handicap at Musselburgh though and some of the beaten horses will be worth watching over the coming weeks.
Turning to tomorrow the opener at Chepstow (2.255) looks a decent race. This looks to be between I Hear a Symphony, Quartano and Schiehallion. Quartano looks a bit short and I am not sure he represents value. I thought that Schiehallion put up a much improved performance when 2nd to Isn’t That Lucky on his last run and I would take a chance on him.
There is not much of interest on the flat. I did have a look at the 4.55 at Redcar. Osteopathic Remedy hasn’t actually won since scoring on his racecourse debut back in September 2006. As a result he has slipped to his lowest ever rating and could be on the verge of getting his head in front again. Another I like is Moheebb who won 3 times last season and is related to 2,000 gns winner Footstepsinthesand.
