All that studying and getting my bets ready - ruined with Musselburgh off.
I don't know about you but all this rain, rain, rain has left me just diluted, I'm afraid. TV racing from Meydan and Cork? No thanks.
Just one choice left.
Picanha - 2.40 Haydock 6/1 Ew
Picanha has only had 8 races under rules, 7 over hurdles so is inexperienced for his age (10). LTO, his first race for nearly 2 years, he was held up (best ridden this way) going well enough in the rear off a decent pace. Approaching the 2nd last, he’d made progress to look a real threat, in the end running out of puff to finish a highly creditable 4th.
This was an excellent run. He’s won over 3m before, registering a great time on good going, so I’m confident that he’s improved for stepping up to this distance. I think this was a good race and that this one might be well handicapped. They've certainly been patient with him and I hope the patience will be rewarded today.
Good luck, if you bother.
