Pongo Twistelton NAP 5/2 Skybet
Jonjo O'Neill is in good form at the minute and he looks to have a cracking chance here with the lovely named Pongo Twistleton. He looks a typical horse from that stable and has been brought on steadily. He was fourth at Southwell last time out and now wears a tongue strap for the first time, he looks well handicapped to me.

2.50 Brighton: Class 6 Handicap, 7 Furlongs

It might be wise not to judge Sixties Habana too harshly on what he has done on the All-Weather in recent months, though his last run at Kempton actually was eye-catching as the performance was better than the bare form would suggest. 

A return to turf will definitely suit here, however. In three runs on turf he has been a 1.5l beaten third on debut where he achieved a RPR of 66 and followed up with a similarly good performance over 7f at Yarmouth when he got a first career win under his belt at the second time of asking

He was out of his depth the next time at Epsom in a big Handicap and then didn't achieve anything of particular note on the All-Weather over the winter.

As a result his mark has dropped significantly now down to 55 and that makes him dangerously well handicapped on his return to the green grass over a trip, track and ground conditions very likely to suit. 

The Phelan/Egan combo also has been quite successful in the last two seasons with a near 20% strike rate despite an average SP of their runners of 19/1! 

Selection: 
Sixties Habana @ 14/1 Bet365

2.00 Nottingham GLOBAL EXCEED @ 7/1 PP & SJ

Backed him @ 4/1 (7/2 sp) LTO and he did what a below average 2yo would do missed break and was all over the shop :\

This horse cost 200,000 and more was expected in an average race , and at 7/1 I think its worth a few more quid of my hard earned in expectation he improves on the last run,not a lover of Spencer but hes the man on top today :hope
