Frustrating to draw a blank on Saturday but we move on and theres just the one bet I fancy for Monday's action.

15:45 Thirsk - BOGART 9/1

1 Point Each-Way

The one that jumps off the page in this contest is obviously the very unexposed African Friend, however odds of around 2/1 in a 19 runner field don't interest me at all. Instead, I'm siding with a very exposed eight year old, Bogart. He hasn't won since this time four years ago, but went very close over 6f at this track a couple of weeks ago. He showed enough that day to think he still retains enough ability to win a race like this, especially off a mark of 81 - having won off a mark as high of 97 when he was at his best. The one main negative looks to be his wide draw, but the drop back to 5f shouldn't be a problem at all and he looks a good each-way play against the short priced favourite. SkyBet are paying 5 places and are best price so makes sense to get on there if you can.
