Flat Racing 24th


Recommended Posts

Not the most interesting day of racing today but saving the pennies for a big day tomorrow looks some really good racing this weekend!! 3.40 Folkestone We Have A Dream will be hard to beat if repeating his effort last time out he has tumbled in the weights and even under a penalty looks well treated having placed countless times last season off much higher marks but the presence of so many other front runners in this small field could set it up for a finisher and that only really leaves Curtains and Ray Of Joy, Ray of joy looks high enough in the weights but Curtains could still be well treated and looks a big price. She won in confident style on the AW back in march when fresh and she beat the inform Norville who has since gone up 21lb in the handicap but Curtains herself has been a bit of a no show in latest runnings but they have been in a very competitive handicap and also a listed event last time out which was always gonna be too much for her! Now returns to the track fresh and dropped another 3lb in the weights so is now only 2lb above last winning mark and she has won on turf before. 1pt e/w Curtains 11/1 hills 7.45 Chester Captivator clearly doesnt stand much racing and clearly goes well fresh, she won first time up this season in a weak AW maiden, but stepped up on that form next time out again going fresh on handicap debut winning easily off a mark of 75 winning by 2 1/4lengths but could have won by any number of lengths she was an easy winner that day, up 7lb for that effort but a repeat of last effort will mean she is hard to beat, well drawn in stall 1 if racing up with the pace and not getting shuffled back the only unknown is the slightly softer ground although she has form on good ground last year so any further drying will help her. 3pt win Captivator 2/1 pp 9.10 Newmarket Lucky Art is in the form of his life at the moment but this field has loads of other front runners in the field which is a concern, Medici Time and Lujeanie love strongly run races and Lujeanie for me is the standout value bet in this race. Yard has finally turned the corner with their runners coming back into form and several look well handicapped now, he won over this course last year off a 1lb lower mark and although that was over 6f and all his best form has come over 6f, but Newmarkets 5f is a stiff one and with this full of front runners his stamina and turn of foot could stand him in with a good chance. 1pt e/w Lujeanie 14/1 bet365

Re: Flat Racing 24th 8.30 CURRAGH BELLE'S RIDGE 14-1 1pt ew This may be a compeitive race on paper but it isn't a good race and one i think BELLE's RIDGE is capable of taking..More than home at the CURRAGH has ran very well here in the past..However it has been poor of late but because of that is on a fantastic mark for this Silken Thomas Handicap (60-90) for 4 year olds and over. Showed some signs last time out that it was coming back to a little bit of form in it's 3rd run after a long break..was never going to win but showed signs that retains some of it's old ability,and off this weight should go close here..Will hold up in mid division and strike late,is very suited by the track and the ground is ideal as seen in the past it's best performances come on soft or good to soft ground. :? CURRAGH 20:30 HANDICAP (60-90) 1m 2 Each Way Odds: 1/4 places 1,2,3 Belles Ridge @ 14/1 (GP) DANGERS Jumbo Rio & mirandas girl
