Bank = 73pts
15:00 Ayr Chosen one 2pts win 15/2
On best form is a much better horse then these. Hasn’t really got going this year but showed signs of returning to fitness lto, when despite a poor start and the jockey virtually motionless throughout finished 6 1/4 lengths back to the in form your gifted over 5f at haydock 10 days ago, this is a horse that needs to be wound up and would appear turning out quickly. At his best on g/f ground which he gets today, this is a less competitive line-up then his usual races and with the yard going well and plenty of doubts for me over the rest he can get in front today.
Race comment: with leader, ridden over 1f out, weakened final 50 yards ## 5th sp - 9/2
19:20 Wolverhampton Rasteau 1pt e/w 33/1
Needed the run on reappearance over 1 mile back in may never really got going and eased down as a result. Didn’t look to appreciate the ease in the ground when upped to 10f lto at Leicester, again heavily eased that day. Interesting to see him upped to 14f today (in a race when all three market leaders are unproven over this trip) as he has always looked like an out and out stayer, has been slightly outpaced on previous two runs but I can see them going a steady gallop and it will help if the selection can get cover on the rail throughout,helped by his low draw. Yet to show his hand and races off a dangerously low mark from a yard who does occasionally land one a big odds. Worth some e/w interest.
Race comment: led, headed after about 3f, tracked leader, pushed along over 6f out, ridden over 4f out, soon weakened ## last (vitually pulled up) sp - 50/1
20:40 Windsor Novel Dancer 4pts win 9/1
Well balanced type, travelled well finding one too good over 10f at Bath last month, Stretched by the trip lto but again travelled well only too fade in the final furlong his rider not reaching for the whip. The return to 10f should suit and the likes of One lucky lady and Circus star should ensure a decent pace, of which could set up the selection from his good draw. Jockey has been riding well lately and takes off 5 lbs, that together with Hannons very good record with 3yo’s here and 9/1 looks generous.
Race comment: held up in 7th, pushed along over 3f out, effort on outside and ridden over 2f out, wandered under pressure and no impression over 1f out ## 5th sp - 8/1
Bank = 65pts
