Best Bet Of The Day - Thursday.04Dec08

[PL2008]

High Life 15:40 Leicester One win, three 2nds, and three 3rds from nine career hurdle runs. First run for trainer G L Moore was a 9th of 18 (beaten 6 1/4L) and that is a good sign after pulling up in the last 3. Jockey Wayne Hutchinson is good booking. His record with High Life has one win, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th from four runs. 1pt to win

Re: Best Bet Of The Day - Thursday.04Dec08 9.20 Great Leighs Tobar Suil Lady looks a decent bet in a race that looks devoid of lively contenders. Formerly with Kevin Ryan, J Spearing's filly has recorded both of her wins on polytrack, including last time out at Kempton. She is stepping up into unknown territory with regards to the trip (never raced beyond 7f) but she does have stamina on the dams side (dam's sire has a stamina index of 9.2f) and her half-sister was a multiple winner over 8f-10f at 2-3 in Italy. She had been raised 5 lbs from her last win but it is quite possible she can defy that rise and hopefully she can swoop late as she did last time. With regards to the opposition, few have recent winning form and many have been running in non-handicaps. 3/1 Blue Sq looks a decent price. 1 pt win.
