Flat racing Weds 27th July

[bowles10]

5.30 Goodwood MUSHARAKAAT has some decent form when you consider its runs this season have been a group 2 and 2 listed races. It should be top weight here but gets the 3yo allowance from the older horses as does the other 3yo's. ignore the Ribblesdale where it was outclassed, its other races have shown the horse has some ability, however i would like to see it taken to the front and see what happens as i dont think a hold up ride will help it over this shorter distance. 0.5pts win @ 16/1 B365

Re: Flat racing Weds 27th July 2:00 Goodwood: Spirit of Adjisa 1pt win 5/1 Bet365 This is the sort of race that hurdlers do well in, and Spirit of Adjisa who has been on a sharp upward curve with Tim Vaughan over the smaller obstacles looks dangerous if he can find at least some of that improvement back on the flat. Spirit of Adjisa has a fine record over timber, winning two novice hurdles last year, before picking up a Grade One at Punchestown in May. There is no telling whether Spirit of Adjisa can translate his new found form to the level, however its worth chancing at the price that he can, and Tim Vaughan who has been in cracking form recently has presumably not booked Ryan Moore lightly. 2:35 Goodwood: Red Seventy 1pt win 9/1 William Hill Richard Hannon looks to be going all out to win this, and its very interesting that although he tries again with Chandlery against Red Duke, he also has three other runners in the line up, which would indicate there is not much between them. Red Seventy was quite impressive when winning at Ascot in a novice event from Sixx. He had to wait for a gap to appear yet quickened nicely when an opportunity arose. That still leaves him a fair bit to find, however Red Seventy with Pat Dobbs again in the saddle, has only raced twice and there could be more to come from this unbeaten colt. 3:10 Goodwood: Rajsaman 1pt win 33/1 Boylesports With a just a four runner field tactics will play a huge part, and after Saturday when a big race did not not start as widely anticipated, this could have the makings of a shock. In many ways that would not be good for racing, yet can't help but think that Rajsaman looks very big at 33/1, He does possess a sharp turn of foot and his third to Goldikova and defeat of Byword reads pretty well. Its a fair way short of the big two, but if they concentrate too much on each other or get the fractions wrong, then Rajsaman could use his burst of speed to nip in. Freddie Head is in fine form, three from eight in the last fortnight and the blinkers are back on today, which he wore when probably producing his best form against Byword.
