As we speak’s swimming pools
As we speak’s UK conferences, swimming pools and minimal ensures are as follows…
And there is comfortable floor at Pontefract, so we’ll head there for six races starting with…
Leg 1 @ 1.17, an 11-runner, Class 4, 2yo handicap over 6f…
High Juggler, Darkish Rosa & Sir Palamedes all received final day out, Stirrup Cup has completed 12 in his final two and regardless of being a 5-race maiden, Georgecandoit has by no means been out of the primary three house and drops two courses right here, as does Stirrup Cup.
Darkish Rosa has already received over course and distance and High Juggler, Shazani, Stirrup Cup & Sir Palamedes have 6f wins underneath their belts, while High Juggler, Stirrup Cup & Larchill Lass have all received on comfortable floor and on a monitor/journey the place early tempo is commonly key…
…those setting the tempo are prone to be that quartet above. Darkish Rosa ticks loads of bins right here, as does quick finisher High Juggler after which it is a case of choosing one from Stirrup Cup, Georgecandoit and Sir Palamedes for me. Two of that trio drop two courses right here and of that pair, I feel I favor Stirrup Cup, so it is (1) High Juggler, (4) Darkish Rosa & (6) Stirrup Cup right here.
Leg 2 @ 1.52, a 12-runner, Class 5, 3yo+ handicap over 5f…
No LTO winners however Music Society has been runner-up twice on the bounce and Alafdhal 3 times. Yazaman did not make the body in his final two, however received his earlier three and each Willolarupi & Mrs Trump each received three begins in the past.
Many of the subject have received over 5f already, Music Society has additionally received right here at Ponty over 6f, while Alafdhal is a former course and distance winner and this pair are each on my Immediate Knowledgeable watchlist, in addition to being off considerably decrease marks than previous wins…
…so I am going to take each of those together with Object, who wasn’t far behind Alafdhal final day out, regardless of racing on their own on the “incorrect” aspect at Catterick final day out, however as a entrance runner with a plun draw right here, he may properly take the race by no means thoughts make the body!
(6) Music Society, (8) Object & (10) Alafdhal from this one.
Leg 3 @ 2.27, a 7-runner, Class 2, 2yo novice stakes over 1m2f…
Tequila Star, Sir Dinadan & Novelista all made the body final day out and the latter is the one runner not stepping up at school. Sir Dinadan improved tremendously from his debut to then be a runner-up at Haydock and with additional enchancment anticipated, a low draw and these stats…
…(4) Sir Dinadan might be the one to beat with (3) Novelista prone to push him hardest.
Leg 4 @ 3.02, a 9-runner, Class 4, 3yo handicap over 1m…
Epidavros is of rapid curiosity coming right here off the again of two wins together with one over a mile on comfortable floor. Sea The Dream has two wins (one on heavy) and two locations from six this 12 months, Good Morning Alex has received six of his final ten begins (5 from 8 over at present’s journey), while unexposed Retracement has a win and a spot from his three outings, together with a course and distance win right here again in July and I feel these are the 4 I am keenest on.
I do not truly suppose that there is a lot between them general, however Good Morning Alex’s final two runs make him susceptible on kind. That mentioned, he is the front-runner on this race…
…and that clearly places him again within the combine, so I’ll fudge it right here and take all 4! (1) Sea The Dream, (2) Retracement, (3) Good Morning Alex & (5) Epidavros.
Leg 5 @ 3.37, a 9-runner, Class 5, 3yo+ handicap over 2m2f…
Justus returns from a 163 day break to see if he can full a hat-trick after successful three and being a runner-up in one in all his final 5 begins. He personal right here over course and distance on heavy floor three begins in the past and is just 5lbs increased right here and drops at school. He has an actual likelihood of constructing the body or higher once more at present if he is to not rusty after his break, however I believe those to be on right here right here is perhaps Surrey Power and Cinnodin.
Neither of this pair are prolific winners, however are regular strong constant sorts, such as you want at this sort of journey/going. Surrey Power is the only real 3yo within the race and for that, he’ll get a greater than helpful 10lbs allowance. He ran very well from a carpark drawn to complete third at Chester final day out and will not must run that far/large at present!
Cinnodin is just 1lb increased than when ending third on this race final 12 months, was a great second of 13 over 2m at Kempton final day out, now drops at school and is ridden by Rossa Ryan who likes it right here at Ponty…
The principle hazard in taking the above three is, I really feel, that Justus would possibly properly want the run after over 5 months off the monitor and the 5yo mare Yorkindness would possibly properly be the one who advantages from that.
She’s a three-time winner (all wins right here) from 5 begins at 2m1f and has made the body in three of her final 5 at 2m2f, while her document right here at Ponty reads 11153. She has received on comfortable floor earlier than, she received the final time Jason Hart rode her and she or he drops three courses at present, so I feel she would possibly simply be a barely safer choose at present with Justus one to look at subsequent day out, maybe however I am siding with (1) Cinnodin, (3) Yorkindness and (9) Surrey Power at present.
Leg 6 @ 4.12, a 9-runner, Class 5, 4yo+ handicap over 1m…
Backside weight Type of Life is the only real LTO winner within the subject and comes right here with three wins and two runner-up finishes from her final eight outings. City Sprawl was a runner-up at Ayr six days in the past, overwhelmed by only a head. He runs off the identical mark right here and with no disrespect meant, a professional jockey would possibly get a bit extra from him within the end at present, as would possibly Poets Daybreak who’s reunited with David Allan at present who has ridden this veteran to 6 of his ten profession wins.
He did not run or get ridden badly final day out, although and was an undisgraced sixth of seventeen at York and having received over 1m1f at Carlisle on his earlier outing, seems to be one to think about right here once more. Walsingham can be attention-grabbing, regardless of being a nine-race maiden.
He had been knocking on the door, ending 332 in his final three races in Eire earlier than transferring to David O’Meara’s yard. He in all probability wanted the run final day out on yard debut, not having raced for 398 days, however went properly for a lot of the race, solely fading badly late on and he ought to come on for that effort.
These 4 are my shortlist right here they usually head the four-race tempo rankings…
Walsingham might be the weaker of the 4, primarily based on previous efforts and though the O’Meara/Tudhope combo is mostly to be feared, the yard’s document with handicap debutants during the last 12 months would not actually stack up with the yard’s general prowess
… I am going to go along with (1) City Sprawl, (4) Poets Daybreak & (9) Type of Life right here though Walsingham would possibly properly spoil the celebration!
*
All of which supplies me…
Leg 1: (1) High Juggler, (4) Darkish Rosa & (6) Stirrup Cup
Leg 2: (6) Music Society, (8) Object & (10) Alafdhal
Leg 3: (3) Novelista & (4) Sir Dinadan
Leg 4:(1) Sea The Dream, (2) Retracement, (3) Good Morning Alex & (5) Epidavros
Leg 5: (1) Cinnodin, (3) Yorkindness & (9) Surrey Power
Leg 6: (1) City Sprawl, (4) Poets Daybreak & (9) Type of Life
…and here is how I would play them, while attempting to remain near a nominal £20 complete stake…
Good Luck!
Chris
