Good afternoon folks
I am going to tread very carefully for tomorrow. The ground (can you believe they are thinking of watering given the forecast??) is major, major guesswork.
As we have seen all season, these clerk’s of the courses, although an unenviable job granted, cannot give accurate descriptions which IS paramount to form students like me. I could go round in circles on a tough enough day as it is but don’t want to kill us from the start with fancies (I have a few) that simply could be undone before we even get racing. Having said that, another selection is as below. Probably more to follow later.
2:25 Sandown
SILENT FILM – 1/2 Pt EW @ 14/1 4 places Bet365, 12/1 5 places & Will Hill, 12 & 11/1 generally
Ascot form has been a must in this race over the years and this horse wont mind a bit of cut. Ian Williams is a tremendous target trainer and this may have been his plan after giving him a pipe-opener LTO in a highly competitive handicap. He ran well there, has a nice draw and the booking of Buick looks the icing on the cake. They have a tremendous record together, especially in 1 mile handicaps and Buick knows this horse well from his early days spent with Godolphin so a big run is expected IMO.
