Morning, so I found the 1st and 3rd in the Coventry and the obvious winner in the St James' Palace, it was pretty much a breakeven day for me. I've marked my card for today and I'll just have to jot it down quickly as the kids want their breakfast.
230 I really like Bossy Guest here. He was my NAP when he won a valuable race at Newmarket in April and then ran very creditably up in trip in the 1000 Guineas. He was beaten by Ivawood that day, and the favourite has done nothing wrong, but I'm not convinced there's 7-8 points between the 2 as the betting suggests. There's 9/1 available with the 3 online leaders, it's a cracking each way bet at the least.
305 For me here, the standout bit of form is Besharah's Course and Distance maiden win, 4 from behind her came out and won next time, as did she readily. Given Mark Johnston's 2yo form it would be folly to discount his pair, Rah Rah and Delizia even though their races haven't pulled up any trees. Also the Wesley Ward pair have to be considered, we saw the blistering pace these American animals are capable of with Ruby Notion yesterday, although that one did fade eventually. Shaden, for Lady Jane Cecil and Hayley Turner got a timely form boost from a winner yesterday. 2 others for a speculative each way play I could recommend are Kurland, I'm not sure she beat a lot on debut but boy did she do it well, visually very impressive and I'm informed that breeding suggests she should be a good 2yo. Only thing she wasn't asked a question at all that day so no telling how much fight she has. The other at a very big price is Jamie Osborne's Secret Tale. She's improved with each run, will love the quick ground, her sire Zoffany ran well here and sired yesterday winner Washington DC. Her second start she was within a length to Nelspruit who ran behind impressive Coventry winner Buratino at Epsom.
340 Integral is a worthy a worthy favourite on what she's achieved, but she has to give away weight as a group 1 winner. I'm backing Euro Charline instead, a 3rd and a 1st at the course last year, she then went on to win the Beverley D stakes and run a creditable 5th behind Solow in Meydan. I think she's the value in the race. If you'd like 2 against the favourite then Rizeena would definitely be my next offering. 3/3 at Ascot, in fact she's won every race in England that hasn't been at Newmarket. So strike a line through anything abroad and at Newmarket and her form is World Class.
420 My money is on Cannock Chase here. He's the only Course and Distance winner in the field abd the fact Ryan Moore has seemingly chosen to ride him simply pushes him to the forefront of the mind. He needs to step up to win this, but he has been improving so no suggestion it's truly beyond him. The Grey Gatsby is the forever underated horse and is potentially a big price again today. Free Eagle needs to be respected as Dermot Weld doesn't send his animals to these shores for shits and giggles
500 A very open handicap as you would expect. I'm going with Spark Plug, who beat GM Hopkins last time out at Newbury, he has the profile of an improving horse and finished 3 lengths behind Cannock Chase in the Hampton Court here last year. I also have Gabrial scribbled in as an each way bet,a genuine horse, he won the Lincoln and was only 3 lengths behind Spark Plug in the Spring Cup, he's been kept busy and grabbed second in a listed event at York last time out.
535 A 17 runner listed handicap for 3yo fillies, at least we can finish the card with an easy one! Osaila is the class animal in the race, at the track she came 5th in the Albany last year then won the Princess Margaret a month later. She came on at 3 to win the Nell Gwyn but was outclassed in the 1000 Guineas. If she can handle the weight she has to concede then she's a cracking each way bet certainly at the 14s William Hill are chalking up. That said I think the Godolphin inmate Always Smile should have the ability to win this. She won last time despite wandering around and the 2 behind her have come out and won since.
