Afternoon folks
Here’s hoping for another cracker of a day although today and especially tomorrow look very, very, very tough indeed. There is value to be found though and one I like and will take a speculative punt on at a monster price on Day 3 is below. More to follow later..
1:20 Cheltenham
METKAYINA – 1/2 Pt EW @ 66/1 4 places generally, drifting so could get bigger & BOG
Ties in very closely with a lot of these from a number of form lines, including the Graded NH flat race at Aintree last year when she was staying on strongly. Has beaten Diva Luna very easily this season and that horse is being very well punted for this as we speak yet ours is 6 times the price! Nice traveller I also like what the trainer says below so worth a dart.
Noel Williams, trainer.
“”We’ve got a date in March in the back of our minds”” and when you have a really nice one like Metkayina you’ve got to dream big. She’s definitely a Pattern horse. We’ve always held her in high regard. I’ve not had stacks of good horses, but I’ve had some nice mares and she’s well, well above average. We’ll look for some black type or even look at the Winter Million. I thought it looked like a hot race and it might have been easier to dodge it, but we wanted to take Diva Luna on. I don’t think it’ll be the last time they clash either –
