Diary: July 22 2009

 

After a blank day on Monday I was quite pleased with today’s results. Cape Vale gave me a winner at the new track of Ffos Las thanks to Cape Vale who ended something of a losing run. Alicante was my other winner. He is on an upwards curve and if he is turned out again soon he will be hard to beat.

I have 4 selections for Wednesday and I am optimistic of getting amongst the winners again.

At Leicester in the 7.55 Hada Men, a recent winner at Folkestone looks an improving stayer and probably rates as my best bet of the day.

Lingfield next where Sir Mark Prescott, trainer of Alicante, has Rock Relief in the 5.00. Having had just 3 runs as a juvenile he looks typical of the sort of 3 year old his trainer does so well with.

At Sandown (7.05) I am hoping that Logos Astra will have benefitted from his debut effort over course and distance earlier in the month when he was 4th.

Lastly I am keen on the chances of Emirates Sports in the Sandown 7.40. He has won his last 2 starts, both on the all weather and the Godolphin team are now in winning form.
