Taunton - Tuesday 2nd Feb

[StuSimmy]

15:40 Taunton Valentine Vic was very impressive when making all over course and distance LTO on his hurdling debut. Beat Triggerman by 6 lengths and there is definately more to come from this horse. Not much else to say apart from he is a dual-point winner and is bred to stay but has already proved himself he can handle this distance. 1pt win Valentine Vic @ SP

Re: Taunton - Tuesday 2nd Feb Taunton 1.40 Devito 0.5 E/W Betfred 41 BOG Very experienced 9 years old with 16 places (4 wins) from 49 starts. Loves Taunton track, where he had 2 wins and 2 second places. I think he will handle the distance. Had several 23f runs. Wallis will be on his back on forth occasion on a raw and will add nice 3 lbs claim. The stable had 2 wins from 15 starts on this track with a very nice +29.00 balance. The field is full of untested for such a distance horses. Taunton 4.10 Dream Falcon 1 pt W Betfred 26.00 BOG Once again i will select a horse riden by young Wallis (it's a coinsidance). On this race he is the only one, who had CD win (and another win at Taunton). The horse may handle with the going, he scored another win on G/S in Ludlow 14 months ago. Both of his last two wins were with Wallis on saddle. Last winning rating was 109, now it's 105. Let's take a draft look on the field. Buck Mulligan impressed with power last time, but now the distance is down very seriously and the weight is up also very seriously. Nudge and Nurdle is a class act, but do not like to carry big weights. Baby Heferon's loss from conquer of Tataniano - Suntini speaks a lot, and he will start as a favorit. But however Dream Falcon;s weight and track advantage may be the big plus for him!
