Flat Racing 6th March

[chris34]

4.30 Lingfield Should be run at a decent clip with Understory, If I Were A Boy and Carazam has been ridden prominently before. Jewelled ran a good race on seasonal reappearance last time out at Kempton. She met some trouble in running but was probably not quite gonna get up anyhow. She is on a winning but she is a tricky customer and will be very reliant on gaps opening up. Gaelic Silver is in an interesting contender only had 3 runs on flat in this country and slipping in the weights. He put his best effort to date in last time out behind Understory who he reopposes today on 2lb better terms wouldn’t necessarily be the obvious sort to turn that around and will need to build on that. Undertsory got a soft lead last time out and didn’t score with much to spare and looked all out to get that win so a 3lb rise a concern in a stronger race. Carazam likely to need this run after over 850 days off the track. Honey Of A Kitten can blow a little hot and cold, won a seller last time out needs to produce a lot more today in a race like this. Im gonna take a risk on Pategonia, a short priced beaten favourite last twice, he appears to travel extremely well but doesn’t always seem to find as much as seems likely. This extra furlong or so may just help given the way he travels. The booking of Buick looks a real sign that they are trying for the win given its his only ride on the card and not been riding on the AW yet and no further booked rides other than Meydan. Gosden yard appears to be going fairly well with a 32% strike rate so far this year. 2pt win Pategonia 3/1 coral 7.00 Kempton Competitive handicap with plenty of reliable sorts. George Guru is a polytrack specialist and his mark has made it difficult to find openings for him and this would perhaps suggest this step up in trip has been forced upon connections and he needs to prove his stamina stepping up 2f in trip, also on a career high mark. Tinshu has no stamina doubts but she doesn’t appear like she is in the same form when beating Robin Hoods Bay in Nov off 92, he beat her penultimate start by 3 lengths and looks to be improving ahead of Tinshu now and this mark requires a career best effort. Super Say won a claimer oozing class over weak rivals, ran another good race 15 days later in a handicap up a 1lb for that effort would be no surprise to see him run a similar race today if in same form. Spifer is a tricky customer on a going day he is a classy sort, he needs delivering late and although scoring last time out didn’t score with much authority and a 2lb rise looks enough given his tricky nature. Robin Hoods Bay can be a little keen at times but he is versatile and can front run. He scored with great authority last time out and looks to be improving ahead of most of these and a 3lb rise looks very lenient. 2pt win Robin Hoods Bay 9/4 vc
