Pertemps Qualifier at Market Rasen today guys - looks fairly straightforward for Dr Newland‘s runner. Not many of these will be sniffing around the final you‘d think.
Any thoughts on the beginners chase mate? Interesting to see Stratum going chasing but no easy task today against The Bosses Oscar and Beacon Edge.
Newcastle 1.07 Fraterculus Obviously this can't be a confident selection but I've the feeling the horse will build on its 4th place last time out (Winner and 3rd of that race have won next time out). On a career-low mark today and Oliver Greenall's stats in handicap hurdles at Newcastle over the last 5 seasons not to bad for each way purposes R 15 W 3 P 6 Good luck whatever you back today
In yesterday's 'Weekender' there were a few hints about Cloth Cap as a possible given that his hurdles rating is apparently 32 lbs lower than his chasing one. GN prep here, perhaps, should he get qualified (although he would need to win any qualifier easily to get his perch up to the required standard)?!? I guess you could say the same about Remastered. But he, of course, is already qualified.
Wincanton 3.50 Sarceaux Alex Dunn has an eyecatching record for each way purposes in handicap hurdles at Wincanton over the last 5 seasons R 24 W 3 P 9 PL 116.50 Sarceaux finished 3 times in the frame last 4 runs. Fell last time out back after a break but there was a bit of market support. Conditional Ben Bromley finished in the first three on his last 3 rides (winner at Cheltenham a few days ago.) At 16/1 on offer worth a go each way.
Beacon Edge doesn't go in the beginners chase at Thurles but still fascinating with Stratum and The Bosses Oscar plus a couple of other interesting chase debutants.
Yes, very exciting. He did actually have an entry at Ascot tomorrow but this didn't turn into a declaration. Quite pleased, really, as have never been a great fan of that jumps course at Ascot. Newbury a much better place to introduce a hurdler.
Stratum jumped pretty well on the whole (one right clanger) and I think he could make a half decent chaser. Might be a novice handicap in him somewhere down the line.
