Tuesday racing

[Trotter]

Not much on today........Southwell and Taunton, both on ATR. Lingfield abandoned (waterlogged)

no scheduled meeting in Ireland

It's a poor meeting at Southwell but there's a couple of Class 3 handicaps at Taunton

Post your fancies here, tips, bets, things you notice about today's racing, jokes would be more than welcome

Anything that you don't think can win ?........false favourites ?

Sou 3.00 - Mile claimer

The overnight favourite, Don't call Me, has pulled out leaving just four runners and a well odd-on favourite in Patriotic who won a CD handicap last time and is now rated 80. He won that handicap off 75. He's 2-1 ON and the most likely winner but I have a hunch for Dominandros at 6/1 bog wm hill

Gay Kellaways horse really needs further than a mile and has been out of form lately but go back a year and he was finishing close up in class 2 handicaps and listed races and was rated in the 90s

The angle today is first time blinkers. His recent races have tended to follow a similar pattern.......sits in behind leaders, ridden 2 out, fades away

His best career runs (admittedly some time ago now) were when he attempted to make all and I think they might have a go from the front today and try to run the legs off Patriotic.

He's getting 9lbs off the favourite plus a 7lb claim and is still only rated 3lb inferior on official figures
