Best Bet Of The Day ~ Tue 8 July.

[Falbrav]

5.00 Pontefract. Annibale Caro. Lay. Racing Post SP 4/1. Did well to rack up a three-timer, but with that has come a big rise in the weights and he did look to be feeling the strain of those winning runs when last seen. 10lb higher today off a mark of 70 than he was when last winning, and if that isn't a reason to oppose him, then the ground turning on the soft side of good would be making his 4/1 SP look very skinny. All his best form has come on good or faster, so mix that with a big weight and several rivals 'seemingly' much better weighted on this ground, then the bet can only be a lay. If he wins then fair play to him. I expect a big drift on this fella.

Re: Best Bet Of The Day ~ Tue 8 July. 3.00 Pontefract London Bid LAY 9/4 Racing Post Forecast Sir Michael Stoute's horse London Bid is out for the first time today in a 1m 2f race at pontefract. This is his first race while others in the field have had a outing before. Ryan Moore rides him which is a plus for the horse but i think il lay him because it is his first apperance. He also has the bad side of the draw as he is drawn in stall 10. Siyabona is also in this race and has good juvenile form but only came 4th last day out. I dont think London Bid will win today.
