Compared to most of the days I deal with, today was
relatively straightforward…
Just the 3 races to look at - with 2 of them the kind of races I thrive on (decent handicap chases, with reasonable sized fields).
I spent quite a bit of time going through both of the races of main interest - but it’s far more feasible to do that, when you’ve only got 14 runners to look at !
I can’t guarantee that I will have dropped on a winner - but I’m reasonably hopeful.
Here’s the rationale behind the bets…
Ascot
I re-watched videos of the main protagonists in the 2:45 - but I wasn’t overly taken by any of them.
It’s quite possible that one of them will improve for a move into handicap company - but I wouldn’t know which one it will be !
The form of Global Agreement’s run at Sandown is reasonable - and he did travel nicely until tiring, that day.
He’s no more than a hopeful suggestion - but at 25/1, I think he’s worth a small bet for the Matrix.
There are question marks over most of the runners in the 3:20 race.
Another Crick is the right favourite - and the one to beat. However, I can see Defi Sacre improving for todays step up in trip.
He tried it earlier in the season, in a strong race at Newbury - but fell at the third last (when still going well).
He’s been unlucky to find himself up against a series of tough opponents this season - and this race doesn’t look quite as strong.
I don’t think he has much in hand of his mark - but he probably doesn’t need to have (particularly if the step up in trip brings about some improvement).
Highest Sun is the other potential danger - but I think todays trip could be a bit short for him.
There are plenty I’m happy to oppose in the Veterans chase (3:55) - in fact, there are only 2 I’m really interested in supporting !
You’ve got to be prepared to forgive Present Man a poor run last time at Newbury - but I am !
He maybe needed the outing that day, after 3 months on the side-lines.
If that is the case, he will take a lot of beating today, under ideal conditions.
I can also see him getting an uncontested lead - and if that happens, I think he’ll win.
The one potential danger is Royal Vacation.
He’ll need to bounce back to form - but if he does, he’s sufficiently well handicapped to win.
He’s definitely worth covering for the Matrix.
