Backed 3 horses today in £100 singles and also done a £40 each treble equally divided all with Ladbrokes. The 3 horses are…
3.40 Yarmouth – Megaleka @ 4/1
Consistency hasn’t always been this ones strong point but she ran a cracker last time out at Redcar to finish 2nd on only her second start for Alan Bailey. She gets an age allowance and one of the top jockeys at the track has been booked for the ride in Frederick Tylicki. The big question mark is whether she can back up her latest run but if she can do so then she could go very close. Another slight worry is the form of the yard but few of their runners have been going close without winning.
4.50 Haydock – Debdebdeb @ 4/1
This horse is up 7lbs for her amended win at Newbury where she was held up but came with a strong run to only just fail to get up. She was awarded the win in the stewards room, which looked fair. She looks sure to be suited by stepping up in trip here and Martin Dwyer takes over from Thomas Brown, which is a positive. She is up in class here but I feel there could be plenty more to come from this horse stepping up in trip.
5.00 Perth – Solway Dandy @ 7/2
This horse’s form has transformed since handicapping finishing 2nd on his last 2 runs. The latest of those efforts came at this track, where he looked as though a step up in trip would suit. Today he gets that and Brian Toomey taking over from a 7lb claimer is more than enough reasoning to get involved with thise horse today. There has been plenty of money around for him this morning and I am hopeful of a good run.
