New month, new competition, good luck everyone !

Kemp 3.25 - Maverik - EW at 20/1 bog wm hill

Mile handicap, class 5

Going for one of the outsiders here who hasn't won for a while but has been falling down the handicap. I've got a hunch he might put in a better performance today. He was fairly well beaten last time out finishing last of 10 but let's list some positives -

last time was his first run after a break and over a trip too short at a track he's not won at. Returns to his proper trip today and is a dual CD winner

drops into class 5 for the first time since Sept 2011 having come down another 3lbs to 75 which gets him in this 0-75

gets all the gear.......first time blinkers, first time tongue strap

was beaten 10 lengths last time but the runs immediately prior to his last 3 wins he was beaten 15, 9 and 39 lengths so he's quite capable of bouncing back from a poor run

Think the short price favourite here is poor value despite a good win last time.......that was a shocking race and even at class 5 this is much better

 

Main problem........dead 8 runners. I'll have to think about scrapping this selection if there's a non runner and I couldn't put money down without knowing if I had 3 places........
