Yesterday resulted in both selections again being well supported and also another 2 point stakes winner albeit at a short price but did it nicely. The other selection Fashion Theory ran a nice race and was only run out of it late on and had the door shut on her when being passed so can probably be upgraded slightly on the bare form. But another day in profit so nothing to moan about. Hopefully get one on the board at a bigger price today.
14:30 Hamilton - POETS TIME 11/2
1 Point Win
When first looking at the race I was keen to take on the favourite, Camanche Grey, given his win last time out here was on soft ground and he is up 5lb for that success. He has won on better ground but that was over two years ago now. Therefore, I would much rather side with the more unexposed profile of Poets Time. She showed nothing in her first three starts in maidens, however the switch to handicap company at Haydock last time out resulted in her finishing third at 50/1 despite being 2lbs out of the handicap. That was a class 5 handicap and second that day 'The Nazca Lines' came out and won a class 4 handicap next time at Carlisle, so todays drop down to class 6 company is seen as a huge positive. Given the exposed look to this field, her weight for age allowance, in addition to Rachel Richardson's 3lb allowance make her an attractive bet at 11/2.
