In here please :ok

Sport	Horse Racing
Event	4.35 Sandown
Selection	Salaasa (Best Odds Guaranteed) (Each-Way)
Strength	5/10
Date	27/04/2007
Bookmaker/Price	Bet365 @ SP (Back)
Reasoning	Bet365 now go best odds guaranteed on every horse race until August. Made its debut over 1 mile and got outpaced last furlong, mainly due to inexperience and lack of racing/fitness. Improved again to take 2nd at Musselburgh but ran green and needed racing experience. Was noted as likely to win a few races. Last time out at Pontefract it travelled really well but the response when asked to go on was great. Pricked its ears, head down and quickened away from the opposition including Veracity (from Jarvis' yard) which won the other day to boost the form although the other horses behind were nothing special. It looked like it really wanted to win and I was impressed with the way it quickened and the attitude shown for an inexperienced 3 yr old. Eased down at the line, had plenty in the tank and that was over this distance and on good ground. Expected SP is around 8-1, anything over 4-1 will be massive value for a big ew bet and I feel the horse could be a potential group horse in a handicap despite others holding fancy entries (Oaks and Dante). Richard Hills was on board lto and gave it a great ride and Johnstone won this race in 2005 and 2006.

How do you like your long winded reasoning? :lol

Re: Fridays EW Fancies ~ 27/04/07 530 Chepstow : Jim Lad (10/1) With the stable still going quite well its possible that Jim Lad will run better than the bare form suggests it can, the grade of race cant get any lower for this one and was making a little headway when clouting a fence just at the wrong time in a better race last time out. Expect to see it reach the frame at least.
