Nap of the day Wednesday 25th

3.20 Southwell - Noble Citizen 1pt win @ 8/1 Coral On turf I would say Jamie Spencer is the perfect jockey for this horses hold up style but at Southwell you don't really want to be too far back. This race is full of Southwell specialists and it's quite tricky to pick one out. I have gone for Noble Citizen who finished 2nd in this race last year to Frontier Fighter and should go well again this time around. His record is 3 from 4 at Southwell with his only defeat coming in this race. Frontier Fighter is in abysmal form coming into this race compared to last year but I still wouldn't rule out a bold defence. That being said I would much rather take a chance on the 10 year old Noble Citizen who has had a recent pipe opener at Kempton to put him spot on for this. Both David Simcock and Jamie Spencer have excellent strike rates at this venue with most of those victories probably coming when teaming up. This ride will be Jamie Spencer's only ride of the afternoon at Southwell so they must think they have a chance with this horse. He is getting on a bit now but he did show a few runs ago that he still retains plenty of ability when winning a 3 runner race at Newmarket against higher rated rivals. I think he is worth chancing here with the usual suspects in David O'Meara and Michael Appleby not exactly firing at the moment.
