Well that's a bit more like it! Handicapped all yesterdays races fairly well, and am now back in profit, albeit only minimally. It could have been even better if Strong Suit had gone out a little in the betting, but nevermind, onwards and upwards hopefully.
Summary: Bet - 17pts, Return - 40.5pts, Profit - 23.5pts
Overall Profit - 0.4pts
Race analysis for day 2 as follows:
2:00 - Another big field handicap to start off. The Johnston/De Sousa combination looked good yesterday and Exemplary could run well, but I'm going for Cosimo De Medici whose late running style will hopefully be suited to the extreme distance of the race.
Recommended Bet: Cosimo De Medici - 1pt ew @ 16/1* (William Hill)
2:35 - This looks a match to me between Red Duke and Chandlery who reoppose after a win for the former. Chandlery now has a weight pull, but I get the feeling Red Duke might pull out more to triumph again. 11/4 is best price at present, and any bet will be dependent on 3/1 being available later.
Recomended Bet: Red Duke - 4pts (only if SP is 3/1 or higher)
3:10 - What a race! Canford Cliffs is top class, but I get the feeling Frankel is extra special, and could be one of the all time greats, so I believe Frankel will win. However the odds make a bet unfeasible.
No Bet
3:45 - I can see Tanfeeth and Watercourse being thereabouts but Whiplash Willie is on the upgrade and looks a good thing at the odds.
Recommended Bet: Whiplash Willie - 6pts @ 9/1* (William Hill)
4:20 - I don't fancy any of the horses who have already raced, which leaves me torn between Deduction and Rakasa. My slight preference is for the Godolphin runner.
Recommended Bet: Rakasa - 2pts @ 7/1 (Coral)
4:55 - I have a shortlist of Common Touch, Shamandar and Zenella. Shamandar looks to have slightly more scope for improvement and has the best jockey on board.
Recommended Bet: Shamandar - 2pts @ 15/2* (William Hill)
5:30 - Blessed Biata looks to have a big chance here for its in form yard, and I can see a quick double for the Haggas/Moore combination.
Recommended Bet: Blessed Biata - 2pts @ 7/1* (Tote)
5:25 Galway - The big race in Ireland is worth a look too. I have it between the John Kiely trained pair, Head Of The Posse and Wise Old Owl. It looks like there has already been some money for the latter, so that is probably the one to go with.
Recommended Bet: Wise Old Owl - 2pts @ 11/1* (Ladbrokes)
