BBOTD Sat 23rd July

4.30 Ascot The big race of the day and just the select 5, Debussy is clearly here to set a good pace for Rewilding to chase so this should be run at a fair pace. Nathaniel is lightly raced and couldnt have been more impressive when winning the King Edward VII over todays CD but takes on some even more classy animals here and will need to take a big step forward. St Nicholas Abbey has to be questionable over a truly run race at this trip and also with ground drying out that is also not guaranteed to suit. For me Rewilding looks the pick at the current prices, Workforce wouldnt want that faster ground and going on strict form lines Rewilding has the beating of Workforce with So You Think form line, with Rewilding beating him at Royal Ascot of course there is the excuse SYT wasnt wound up enough for the race but even so it was a good performance by Rewilding over a trip that was on the short side, and since then SYT has beaten Workforce fair and square and Rewilding has form on faster ground aswell as soft ground, and has been given plenty of time to get over his last run and step back up in trip is only gonna suit more! 1pt win Rewilding 3/1 vc

Re: BBOTD Sat 23rd July 3.40 York Midnight Martini - Tadgh O'Shea teams up with Tim Easterby here, they combined to land a decent Musselburgh sprint with Lost In Paris earlier in the year and rarely team up together. Was fifth to Hoof It over C&D earlier in year and has generally run solid races whenever she's come here. Looks like she doesnt have much in hand off her present mark but thats factored into the price. Midnight Martini 20/1 William Hill, 1 pt win
