Hi all,
I wasn’t expecting any selections today, but I did have a look at a couple of races, and I have found two.
Exeter
2:55 – Enjoy Your Life is a worthy favourite to give Venetia William another chase success. The 6-year-old was a comfortable winner over C&D 25 days ago and a 7lb rise isn’t excessive. The ground might be a shade softer than last time, but he’s got a solid chance of following up. He’s the one to beat.
Run To Milan is a three-time course winner including two over C&D. The 11-year-old wasn’t disgraced when a 5 ¾ length 4th behind Enjoy Your Life here last time. He’s been dropped 2lb since and gets a 9lb pull from the winner. If he’s going to win again it’s likely to be here and he’s the value pick.
Run To Milan – 1pt win – 9/1 @ Coral & Ladbrokes.
Southwell
4:10 – Fine Wine, a four-time course and distance winner who is currently 4lb below his last winning mark. Although he wasn’t in form on his recent three outings, a performance akin to his 1 ½ length 3rd of 14 to Vintage Clarets in the Gosforth Park Sprint Cup in June would give him an excellent chance. A speedy sort, he returns from an 89-day break, and if he’s in prime condition, I believe he has the potential to surprise some more fancied rivals.
Fine Wine – 1pt win – 7/1 @ Bet365.
Cheers
John
