Morning folks
I have had a good look at the John Smith’s Cup at York tomorrow and the one I like a lot is as below. It’s sure to be a tough, tricky day with the amount of racing/competitiveness hence the ‘Super Saturday’ tag but I will give it my all. More to follow throughout the day.
3:10 York
PARADIAS – 1 Pt EW @ 18/1 boost Lads, 16/1 Bet365 6 places,, 14/1 6 places generally
An ultra competitive tough looking handicap, as with the Bunbury Cup, but I have had this horse on my radar for this ever since his run here last season where he travelled well and went clear 2 furlongs out only to fade in the closing stages. That was over 1m 4f and the drop back in trip from a lovely stalking draw in stall 7 looks ideal. He ran a cracker at Epsom on his 1st run since Feb, finishing in front of the 6/1 joint favs for this in Liberty Lane & Haunted dream, running on strongly from the rear from an awful draw. Alan King is in super form on both the National Hunt & Flat so granted a nice pitch/luck in running I though he could run a cracker here for us.
