 Honiton 10/1 365 5 places 8/1 skybet 6 places


A pinjob handicap not the sort of races i usually bother with 3yr olds unexposed,but as the form of Honiton has been franked numerous times this week by loads of formlines through the races it's run in it's hard not to back it,3rd on seasonal debut to My Prospero thats been touched off in the St James Palace Stakes off 114 this week the 2nd Thesis won the Britannia today off 90..Then

was 2nd to Secretary State at Chester and that won the King George The V today off 93,then was 3rd to Edgar Eldarov at Newcastle and that won the Queens Vase this week off 95 but is obviously a group 1 horse,some ridiculous looking formlines..I've come across these races in the past and they never really clicked as all of them were run in slow times,then last time out Honiton raced on better ground won a weak maiden but by 9ls pulling up,the time was just above standard and compared to the rest of the card looked very quick,a 0-90 earlier on the card 1.5 seconds above standard and Honiton carried 9 pound more as well as being faster  by 1.5 seconds..The negatuve could be quick turnaround,that was only at Sandown on the 11th so may bomb out on quick return but could easily be well in off 94..Suspect once all the tipsters have gone through the form they will feel obliged to put it up based on form and time and wouldn't surprise me if it went off favourite..


5 + 3 = ?
