Morning Folks
An early selection for tomorrow is below. Small fields tomorrow at Uttoxeter & Wetherby so I shall have a look at the Newcastle AW card where there are a few classier, nice field races. More to follow later
1:10 Cheltenham
JIMMY THE DIGGER – 3/4 Pt EW @ 11/1 4 places Hills boost, 10/1 4 normal, 8/1 drifting 4 places generally
A strong travelling horse, although now 11 ran as well as ever over C & D LTO. In fact, he loves this C & D on the Old course where he has returned the form line of 1,4,2 from 3 efforts to date! He is better off with the winner who was given a good ride that day, setting a slowish pace but there looks more pace on in this which will suit our fellow. Trainer going well and the icing on the cake for me was the handicap mark. He goes off just 113 here (7lb capable amateur reduces that to effectively 106!! and will surely know him better after his 1st ever ride aboard him last time) and in 6 handicaps runs from a mark of 115 and below, he has returned the tremendous record of 1,2,2,1,2,1!! Loves good ground so at the price with the place terms on offer rates a decent bet IMO.
