I had a good day today with 3 winners including sprinters Dark Mischief and Cape Vale at Haydock. Both were given positive rides by their jockeys Dane O’Neill and Adrian Nicholls respectively.
Looking ahead to tomorrow and the 6.50 at Kempton Park Lane has run 5 times over a mile and his form figures read 22321 so it would be no surprise to see him run well.
Ruthie Babe was a winner for me at Ffos Las the other day and is turned out again in the Kempton 2.20 under a 6 lbs penalty. This is a stiffer task but she is in form and I will stick with her.
In the 2.55 I like the look of Amanda Perrett’s Life and Soul on pedigree. By Azamour and related to winners in Italy and Germany.
In the 4.05 Cadre represents my list to follow. He has already won at 8/1 so as a horse to follow he has done his job! He has it to do in this race where Bankable looks the one to beat.
I have been following Cook’s Endeavour with a remarkable lack of success and I see he runs in the claimer at Yarmouth (2.10) tomorrow. I’ve given up on him! On a more positive note there is a potentially nice two year old making his debut in the Yarmouth 2.45 in Business as Usual. This colt, trained by Michael Jarvis is related to a New Zealand Oaks winner and is by Invincible Spirit, one of my favourite sires when assessing 2 year olds.
The 3.55 next where the lightly raced Cygnet could just be a blot on the handicap. He hasn’t run since winning a Nottingham maiden on his 2nd career start last October. Very well bred he may just be better than his handicap mark.
There are 3 runners from my list to follow in the 4.30, Splashdown, Hidden Brief and Mooakada. Splashdown has the best form of the trio and is the selection.
