Shaunas spirit loves this c/d but is now on a mark of 72 and tomorrow drawn 10 other front runners in the race and the progressive captain kendall up in trip and hard to know how much improvement to come,they have the best form in the book.The one other i liked is tidals baby although the price was a lot shorter than i was hoping to see,thought this was going to be a cracking bet around 10/1 opened 9/1 for 1 minute with 365 what a joke and biggest price currently 13/2.With the claim tomorrow gets to run off 59 lowest ever mark 6 pound lower than when 4th behind mr knightley.Was beaten 6ls in that race but the front three all were up with the pace,als memotry was second winner since off 74 and the third compton rainbow has also won.Tidal babys run at wolves you could upgrade by a length or two behind sheer genius,a few infront were only rated in the high 50s but looked a reasonable race for the grade and gets to race off 5 pound lower tomorrow.They would be my three against the field.

An appauling race where you could run it 10 times and get 10 different results three of these ran against each other last time out,teen ager,compton target and play the blues teenager coming out on top from the pace setters first and second were off the pace.Tomorrow compton target and play the blues have better draws i wouldn't rely on them the former 0/14 but theycould realistically lead the race,vale of lingfield was also in that race ran inexplicably bad previously running thitd to bussa and sandy lane in a reasonable time could easily figure but has a [poor draw.My three agains the field would have teenager in for placepot as well as vuhjon another that lookas though been cruying out for this trip and dropping in grade.

Celtic charlie ctaches the eye although never won off this higher mark and with the surface riding a lot slower has been running in better races but over further ideally wants another furlong will probably try and lead and try and make it a stamina test.If this was 1m6s would be a strong fav but over this trip of 1m4fs could not be confiodent.Irene kennet looks open to improvement beat cool kid and el bravo both of those had been running well in this grade,she's only had 8 runs my two against the field with fav for placepot and novel dancer loads of form in better class races but has run poorly both runs here.Fav for ppot.

Soventos been 2/1/2/4 off marks of 52/59/58/63 over this c/d tomorrow off just 49 with the claim and not run over this trip since running off that mark of 63 with the mccabe stable in decent form.Liberty love finished stronly last time ou behind easydoesit won again since and had nolecce behind won as well still looks reasonably well handicapped along with if you whisper lots of form in this grade and better without winning.There are several other but will keep the shortlist to horses that have run over the trip.

Could well be a lack of pace in this race and the stamina of purple n' gold and brown pete may go untested and race maybe run to suit,any pace on would give reflect and brunston a chance after runs behind illustrious forest and sir boss but over further.They ideally want another furlong and a decent pace!!Quite possible adynira will try and dictate and may get a stamina test ran ok behind woolfall treasure and sohcatoha although well beaten,if pressed would go for reflect and brunsrton on hoping on that pace being made at the prices.Two favs for ppot.

A decent little race spirit of sharjah wouldv'e been fav for this a couple of seasons back beating mosqueras romance off 100 after 309 days off ran a couple of lengths behind one of tomorrows favs anaconda,the pace looked against him that day and wasn't given a hard ride.Hard to really know how much ability he retains but beat chapter and verse easily next time out is 2/2 over c/d probably capable of giving these a good race even at 8 yrs of age,piscean will be depending on a decent pace to chase and his turn of foot may be the decisive factor seems to be running better than ever.I'd stick with those two and anaconda for the placepot.

Another horrible race to end with jack my boy always looks a bet produces one bit of solid form only to follow it up with a poor run,has now not won since may 2010 you wouldn't like to be backing him at short prices but this is one of the weakest races he's ever run in and would be on the short list.It looks as though admiralty and exceedexpectations are going to take each other on both stay further so should be a stamina test,will stick with admiralty as i said today when riding angelic upstart thomas brown 13% strike rate thought that was a little unlucky today caught off a slow pace and with him claiming 7 takes it down to 63 and still only the 9 lifetime runs!!
