BBOTD - Thursday 20th

[FedericoBTH]

2.40 TOWCESTER - Ukrainian Star 2/1 @Bet365 #BOG (1pt Win) His 94 mark over hurdles is giving to him some room to make things and apart from other two horses (both overall not convincing) I don't see an actual Class 5 race here. At Hereford Ukrainian Star won easily by 10 lengths and he's a course (2/5) and distance (3/10) multiple winner. The stable seems pretty fit and the horse is in cracking form, 2/1 seems a fair price to give it a go. Blinkers confirmed are a huge plus.

Re: BBOTD - Thursday 20th 19.00 Kempton: Key Ambition @ 12/1 Bet365 Thought Key Ambition ran a hugely impressive race at Lingfield lto. He had a wide draw to overcome, was outpaced soon after the start and outpaced turning for home, in addition he really had to turn very wide, in fact widest of all, but stayed on very well on the outside eventually in a manner of a horse that may have a bit in hand over a distance further than 6f. So the step up in trip to 7f will clearly be beneficial on evidence of that run and also the pedigree is pointing into that direction with his sire having been a Group winner over that sort of trip. He's down to a very handy mark now, and his last two runs were eye-catching, even though the most recent one really proved that he is poised to win when finally stepping up in trip (one try over 7f at Southwell so far, I ignore that run though, as Southwell form nor comparable with the other AW tracks). Think 12/1 is a massive price here.
