Wednesday Eyecatcher – 20th February 2019

Hi all,

We have a recent eyecatcher running at Newcastle tomorrow.

Newcastle

3:10 – Ballard Down – Caught the eye at Lingfield on his last start, when on his second start for new trainer David O’Meara, was making headway when not getting the clearest of passages inside the final furlong. Still ran well to get within ¾ length of the winner in finishing 3rd.  Prior to that the 6-year-old had been a close 3rd over C&D. As I mentioned in the notebook after his Lingfield run I think connections may have bought him for a tilt at the Lincoln Handicap next month. Still I think he can go close here and looks worth a punt at the 15/2 available.

Ballard Down – 15/2 @ Coral & Paddy Power
