Racing Chat - Sunday 18th July

[The Equaliser]

Very tricky today.  11 qualifying races between the class 4 and class 2 races.  To be honest there are so many short priced favourites this afternoon and they look to be more like "lay" prospects than winners.  Hatcher looks to be a good prospect and I napped it at 9/4.  However the market is strongly in favour of Scardura and that puts me off.  I can't combine the two so I'll leave the race alone.

This only leaves me with a small punt on Cards are Dealt with Brian Hughes aboard in the 5.25 at Stratford.  £2 win at 12.0 = £21.56 if it wins

RESULTS UPDATE

My outsider was a non-runner.  Hatcher did win, though it almost fell at one stage.  Good to see that the Skelton horses are still in rude health.  No change in my balance of £807.07 (Bank £1056.22)

Four UK meetings tomorrow.  I counted about 5 class 3 races, some with favourites at reasonable prices.

I have revamped my horse selection work sheet so as to squeeze the most I can out of Racing Post and Timeform ratings and selections.  Should be bullet proof shouldn't I? ?
