Diary: May 20 2010

 

We drew a bland for the second day running this afternoon although Hypnotized was only beaten a neck.

At Haydock tomorrow the two top weights are of interest in the 3.25. Both Webbow and Fastnet Storm have a race in them I feel but maybe they both need to come down just a few pounds in the ratings first. Webbow needs conditions to be in his favour as he is best attacking from a fast pace. I would be inclined to oppose them both but they will be winning before the season is out.

At Salisbury Sleeping Wolf, by the new sire Sleeping Indian, could win first time up in the 6.00. At Sandown the well bred Maqaasid is one to look out for in the 5.50, while in the 6.20 Rock A Doodle Doo should benefit from the test of stamina in the 6.50.

The well regarded Treble Jig is my selection in the 6.50. The 7.25 could be between Towbaat and Spoken. If pushed for a single selection I would just prefer Spoken.
