Weds racing newm craven meet

[richard-westwood]

Relatively quiet day ...not a lot catching my eye but thought I'd tackle the 430

Air pilot    99.36

Custom cut  99.35 

Dutch connection  99,31

Decorated knight 99.29 

These races are wide open ...any one of six could potentially win this ...Air pilot is favourite and as the ground is soft he probably has the best overall profile and is worthy but for value sakes I'm going to take a chance on custom cut who handles soft ground ....has form at newm and has the advantage of a run this season which wasn't too bad ......so he could be ready for a big run and at 8/1 he looks value to take this favourite on e.w bet

Custom cut  3pts ew 8/1 bet365

430 Nm: Earl Of Sefton Stakes

Preview

Dutch Connection now a NR

Selection:  Mahsoob EW 6/1 888Sport

Verdict:

A cracking renewal of the Sefton Stakes and I cant see past Dutch Connection on this occasion. He has the form to win in higher class than this and has done nothing wrong to date. He has to prove his stamina, which is the only slight worry, but I reckon his class will pull him through as long as this ground doesn’t get too soft. Air Pilot and Custom Cut are very solid rivals and the selection will not have it all his own away I’m sure. Mahsoob could improve and nick a place but I’d be surprised if he’s good enough to take this. A fascinating contest and a race that could provide plenty of future winners.
