Good Afternoon folks
Two for Tomorrow below. Lots of racing to get through so more to follow.
1:15 Haydock
SUITE FRANCAISE– 3/4 Point Each Way @ Will Hill boost 9/1 ¼ odds, 8/1 ¼ normal, 8/1 generally
I am siding with a couple of Charlie Johnston horses at his favourite track Haydock. Top on RPR’s, she made all very comfortably over C & D LTO and is indeed a perfect 2 from 2 here. Fanning is a master from the front which I expect her to do and indeed when they team up together, in the past year they are 4 from 6 over course and distance so getting all the allowances, looks dangerous to me and can go close especially with a 1/4 odds a place on offer!
3:00 Haydock
ALIGN THE STARS–1/2 Point Each Way @ 28/1 Ladbrokes boost 5 places, 25/1 5 places generally
Another Johnston inmate, this strapping horse is still only 4 and is a ready C & D winner last year, beating the likes of the fancied Dramatic Star and East India Dock in the process. He is back on his last winning mark and the trainer reaches for 1st time blinkers with which he has a cracking record applying first time headgear. Needs to recapture a bit of form but to further bolster his chances, Johnston, since late September 2023 has had 3 winners from 6 runners! (50% Win SR!) with two of the others finishing narrowly beaten seconds so at a huge price, I thought this prominent racer could run a big race given the places on offer.
