A couple caught my eye at ascot first up reikers island won’t mind the ground had a pipe opener at Exeter last time. And in the last Oakley once again pipe opener at hq with a 5lb claimer.
Oriental Cross won well last week and I expect her to follow up today. Drifting in the market but I'll be sticking with this one.
Took a good look at this race last night franky de brulais looks a danger and at 11/4 with oriental now a non runner I wont mind the risk
Angels Breath really impressive. the first horse i have been excited by since the flat season finished.
ffos las,2 15: JACK VALENTINE just edges it for me here,as he showed a very good attitude to win last time out,and that should have brought him on for today.
Master Debonair was impressive... one to watch I feel. I liked him when I saw him run at Cheltenham's showcase meeting last year...
ascot,2 40: not an easy race to weigh up,as most of these are pretty useful in their own right,but a narrow vote goes to FLYING ANGEL,who hasnt won since his win of the manifesto chase at aintree 2 years ago,but hes often run well since then,and is 11 lbr lower now.was second to mr medic in this last year,but i feel,he can turn the form around today.good chance.
ffos las,2 50: BENI LIGHT has proved costly for favourite backers this autumn,but on the other hand,cankt knock his consistency,which is a big plus today,against mainly out of form rivals,so,although put up another 2 lbr for his troubles today,should run his usual honest race here.
yes,very well done! ascot,3 15: another tough contest,and plenty with chances.in an ideal world,id have gone for my beloved minella rocco,but he seems to have lost the plot totally,and cant be backed with confidence,until showing a bit more.my choice is KING OF REALMS,who ive been following since his bumper days,and is very unexposed over fences.shaped not too badly so far this season,and should be competitive here..e w chancer.
ascot,3 45: RED FORCE ONE is,to some extent,the least exposed of these,and he ran a real stormer against gumball in a listed event last time out.this represents a slight drop in class,and he can easily go one better here.
