Best bet of the Day 5 Feb

[Aykay1]

240 Huntingdon - Aimigayle - each way. has been running well this season, particularly when running Shatabdi close, giving her 6lb's. That was over this course but the distance was probably a bit short - this step up to 3m will be beneficial. Aimigayle has won since that run and looks to be an improving type.

Re: Best bet of the Day 5 Feb 1.30 Southwell The one I think is worth a bet at the price here is Alan McCabe's Incomparable. The trainer does well at this track and is coming into some sort of form with the rejuvenated Capricorn Run landing a valuable race at Kempton last night. Incomparable is a course and distance winner having won in this grade in November off a 2 lb lower mark, and he has been running with credit ever since when raced over the minimum trip. He has a couple of sixths to his name, but in my opinion that is because he doesn't see out six furlongs well. For example, on the 13th December at Wolv - "with leader, ridden over 2f out, jinked right over 1f out, weakened final furlong" and then at the same track on the 7th January, "took keen hold, soon in touch, ridden 1f out, one pace." His last run at Southwell came on the 25th November when again, he didn't see out 6 furlongs, "chased leader, ridden to lead over 2f out, headed over 1f out, one pace final fulrong", however the form of that race hasn't worked out too bad regardless, as the third, Efisio Princess, recently picked up a handicap here, the second, Charles Parnell, won his next two handicaps and the winner, Ingelby Arch, has won twice since also. So all in all I think he stacks up to be a good bet at the price as he's well handicapped and been getting competitive off 69 on his last two runs when beaten by only 0.5 lengths and a head, he is dropping back down to a suitable trip, he acts on the surface and jockey Pat Cosgrave was in the saddle for his last win. 1 pt win
