Racing Chat - Saturday Feb 3rd

320 Wetherby

Red Rising 6/4 bet365

Really difficult to pick a Nap out on Saturday with so many decent horses up and down the country plus the graded action in Ireland. I'm struck by Red Rising at Wetherby although the price may not be as big we would like it still represents a bit of value to me.
The yard does well on their northern raids and its interesting that Harry is up here to ride it. He's been well backed on all four starts since coming over from Ireland and won two of them. I get the feeling he has unfinished business over hurdles before going chasing and the bad ground stopped him last time.

3:05 Lingfield  PETITE JACK  15/2 Bet365

Gave this one out at the beginning of December to turn over Toast of New York after coming out of retirement. He ran a good race and improved next time to get on top in a listed event. (Not on it) 2nd chance. He had a very good season in 2017 and although  suited by further he is enjoying this trip. He is a bit of a character and needs to come late, but Luke Morris try different tactics last time and it worked well. They now say all roads lead to Good Friday

2nd Chance watching Brief  0/4  (think i will scrap this on here and just do paper watching) ATHASSAL  Kempton 7:45  16/1  General

Did not take to Fibresand last time and drops a further 2lb and is a course winner here
