BBOTD Thursday 8th of December

[Aidymac]

Posh Emily - Taunton 1:20 Although this is a tougher race than it won last time out and has a 4 pound rise in the weights, Posh Emily has the most amount of course wins in this race with 3, loves it here at Taunton, 3 of its 4 career wins have been here. Matt Griffiths takes off 5 pounds, so technically it will be 1 pound lower than its run last time out. Will be given a patient hold-up ride and will be delivered late, and has every chance in my opinion. WIN @ 11/1 Bet365 BOG

Re: BBOTD Thursday 8th of December Lucky Royale - Kem 7.00 (1pt win 7-2 BET365 BOG) Joined Jeremy Gask in 2011 and after an obligatory third run for a handicap mark was given a bargain basement rating of 47. Won off that rating over 5f last month (staying on nicely) and has remarkably only been raised 2lb to a mark of 49. Seems progressive and potentially very well handicapped with decent apprentice Raul Da Silva on board. Running style suggests step back up to 6f should be okay.
