Sport	Horse Racing
Event	Bath 1:30
Selection	Cairncross (Each-way)
Strength	2/10
Date	16/10/2011
Bookmaker/Price	Boylesports @ 13.00
Reasoning	6th and 8th in the last two but did not have jockey Silvestre De Sousa on board. De Sousa was booked in the previous two runs and he was able to ride the selection into 2nd and 3rd of 13 in maidens at Pontefract and Windsor. The Ponte run was at 1m1f. Run for 3rd was at Windsor behind 3 1/2 lengths to runners by John Gosden and Saeed Bin Suroor. She's not raced 1m2f since and the return to it should get her to bounce back.

Selection	Epirnay (Each-way)
Strength	2/10
Date	16/10/2011
Bookmaker/Price	Boylesports @ 9.00
Reasoning	Finding life tough in Class 3 Handicaps the last two starts; 13th of 13 and 5th of 11. Drop back to 5 should get a better performance by her. Her form this year before the last two runs was for 1st, 2nd, 1st, 2nd, 2nd in Class 6,6,5,4,5. Penultimate run of 13th of 13 was her first run in a Class 3 race so she can be forgiven for that. She raced at 1m2f three runs ago and finished 2nd by a head. That race was at Newmarket so her form at the trip and class has to be respected.

Sport	Horse Racing
Event	Bath 4:10
Selection	Roberton Pegasus (Each-way)
Strength	3/10
Date	16/10/2011
Bookmaker/Price	Paddy Power @ 15.00
Reasoning	Won first two career starts. Won debut and only run last year at Windsow (1m2f) by a head. Won first run this year by 3/4 lengths at Newmarket (1m5f). No win or place in the next three starts but he was upped to 2m in each of them. Twice at Ascot (4th of 10 and 5th of 10) with a Newmarket (7th of 8) in between. He obviusly does not have the stamina to stay that far. The drop back to 1m5f is sure to suit him well as he proved that at Newmarket first time out this year.
