Flat Racing > Wednesday March 5th

[Aidymac]

Kempton 6:30 The ex Sir Michael Stoute trained Persepolis looks too big a price here in my opinion at around the 22/1 mark, now trained by Brett Johnson. This horse went off a 1/5 favourite in a maiden at Sandown last summer and bolted up by 12 lengths so he clearly has plenty of ability. He ran very well at Lingfield in December when he was 3rd to Karam Albaari over this trip, only beaten over a head. The trip of 1m4f was too far for the horse last time out, stepping back to 1m2f and now dropped 4 pounds in the weights back to the same weight as his Lingfield run he has to have a solid chance. He has a decent draw in Stall 6 so fingers crossed for a big run. Persepolis WIN @ 22/1 Bet Victor

Re: Flat Racing > Wednesday March 5th ling 2.00 ......just putting this up for ratings purposes as I had already rated it but im not gonna bet cos no value ........... pharaoh jake 99.12 secret millionaire 99.01 seamster 98.88 give us a belle 98.66 bookies have this race tightly sown up and have left little value so I can t play in this one unless prices change drastically ....but ill watch it with interest ...........seamster is fav and I cant argue with that ......has been improving lately but has to be losing soon and his price looks short given the level of opposition today .......same applies to pharaoh jake who has been running some cracking races but to me looks exposed now and not even the 11/2 e.w looks value ...........overall the best bet would be secret millionaire who to be fair didn't run very well last time .........but that was Kempton and he looks more at home here at ling and also the drop to 5f is very much in his favour so seems to have optimum conditions today ...........7/2 is just too short for me to play though given seamster could improve and the other two are no forlorn hopes .............one to watch
