Bowles Flat Racing bets 2006

[bowles10]

Didnt like the way they started the flat this year with switches to AW etc, however we start proper today with decent racing at Redcar. As usual, all bets will either be 5pts ew or 10pts win (& i will also be doing place bets on Betfair also which will be 10pts also) todays selections are: 2.10 Redcar ALFONSO 5pts ew @ 9/1 Paddy Power Trainer has had this race in mind for some time & after 3 decent efforts on the AW, rightfully takes it place in this large field. Drawn 21 of 24 will be interested to see if the high draws do get an advantage here. With 4 places up for grabs, this horse will have fitness on its side & the trainer has put the blinkers on today which he feels will help in this large field. 3.15 Redcar BENEDICT 5pts ew @ 25/1 (already advised in Lincoln thread) High draw in 28 of 30, goes well in these conditions, extremely consistent last term over this distance. Record over 1m reads 2-1-1-2-3-1. 3.15 Redcar CESARE 10pts win @ 8/1 (already advised in Lincoln thread) This race sometimes throws up horses who are Group class in the future & this is the likely one after winning 3 out of 4 last season. Drawn in 6 of 30, so will have rto overcome that (or will it help), may well be at least 3L better than these seasoned handicappers. Fits all the trends & stands a great chance. 3.50 Redcar QUITO 10pts win @ 5/1 Sporting odds 6f/7f specialist in any ground. Difficult to back against as the soft ground today will play to its strengths as it finishes fast & could be eating up the ground as others toil in its wake, never wins by much but will be there at the finish. 40pts staked

Typical start for me if previous years are anything to go by! 1 bet today 3.30 Brighton DESESRT DREAMER 10pts win @ 9/2 Betdirect Has good form on any surface & will act on the track which is essential round Brighton. Seb rides & he has an excellent record here.
