Hi all,
Hyanna continues to disappoint and looks one to avoid. I have a couple of selections from Salisbury and Warwick for you.
Salisbury
4:32 – Poet Of Life ran below market expectations on his handicap debut when 4th of 11 at Sandown last month. Should be capable of better but looks worth taking on here.
Lord Protector won over C&D (soft) in May. Before likely not staying 1m 4f back here the following month. Wasn’t disgraced when 6th of 10 in a better race than this at Newmarket in July. It was good to firm that day’s he probably better with some ease in the ground.
Majestic Dawn last year’s Cambridgeshire winner. Was pulled out of this year’s race on account of the quick ground but will like today’s surface more.
March Law has returned from a long absence with a couple of promising performances, including when a ½ length 2nd of 5 at Kempton 8-days ago
Rebel Territory won at the 6th attempt at Goodwood 61-days ago. He proved his stamina for 1m 1f that day on soft ground. He’s up 6lb for that win but he could be capable of better for a yard among the winners. The forecast strong pace should see him get the race run to suit.
2pts win – Rebel Territory – 9/2 @ Coral & Ladbrokes
Warwick
3:10 – The Dan Skelton trained Shentri looks sure to be popular with punters. He seems to be getting the hang of jumping fences and should win a race with the aid of his 4-year-old allowance. The first time cheekpices are applied and they could bring out more improvement.
Preference though is for winning hunter chaser Creative Inerta. The 11-year-old built on the promise of his Cheltenham return in April when winning a hunter chase at Stratford the following month. He finished a close-up second that day but was awarded the race due to the winning jockey weighing in light. Handicap debut off what looks a workable mark and he should be suited by the step up to 2m 4f.
1pt win – Creative Inerta – 7/1 @ Bet365
Cheers
John
