I might be reading too much into this or there might be an official reason for it if anyone can shed any light on it but, why is it that in the first at Haydock, Richard Kingscote rides Airmax 4/1 for Ralph Beckett and doesn't ride Quantatmental 11/4 for Tom Dascombe which P J McDonald (his only ride at Haydock before riding this evening at Sandown) rides instead. Then Tom Dascombes other runners on the card are ridden by Kingscote. The thing is i'm not sure which strikes me the most from a betting perspective. The fact that Kingscote rides for someone else or that McDonald has been given the ride and its his only one on the card. Therefore two win singles and decent reverse forecast.

6:50 Leopardstown - Luna's Luck 33/1 EW (5 places Skybet). Horse doesn't have many runs under its belt, has placed a couple of times in the past. Ground better today and with the five places on offer price looks a little big.

hi fellas!

sandown,6 25

not a very original choice,true,but i think,GHOSTWATCH might benefit from this even longer trip,as he always seems to hit a flat spot in his races.so,this could give him more time to accelerate,and he looks very much a stayer..good chance.
 
sandown,7 00

the best form may well be supplied by GEORGE VILLIERS here,as he beat a horse last time out,tha franked the form twice,so big shout..
