If the forecast rain arrives I thought I would be ok with a nice class 4 AW race to look forward to little did I know there would be only 4 runners and then I cant split the top two on the card, I've got DANDY'S BEANO 6/4 as the most likely pacesetter and its only 1lb below my top-rated runner who is ORIENTAL LILLY 15/8 but as I expect they are the first 2 in the betting so no value in backing them both but better than losing.
Dandy's Beano 6/4 1st + EX £3
Oriental Lilly 2/1 2nd
CHESTER 3.10
I'm not a fan of races at this course and my stakes are automatically reduced, in the make-up of this race ACCLAIM THE NATION 9/1 from stall 7 could get to the front and if doing so would be hard to catch and it comes out 2nd best on my figures for this year, *EXCESSABLE 12/1 comes out 2nd overall using a 2018 time but stall 10 might not be ideal but if it can track my other selection over towards the rails it could go well, my top rated is CANFORD BAY 8/1 who will try from stall 5 to sit just behind the leaders and then stay on strongly in the short home straight and I will be backing all 3 selections, if the rain stays away.
Acclaim The Nation 11/1 4th
Canford Bay 9/1 5th
*NR
NEWMARKET 5.10
Only 6 runners where half of them have been known to lead before but none of them are in my top 2 ratings so I think either SHAMSHON 5/2 or SPIRIT OF WEDZA 11/1 will be finishing fast enough to catch the leaders, they are equal top-rated and both being ridden by 7lb claiming apprentices so I will have to back them both.
Shamshon 5/2 1st
Spirit Of Wedza 11/1 4th
SALISBURY 6.45
What a tight race this looks, the think the topweight and bottom weight would both prefer a longer trip and have no ratings at this distance the rest are very closely handicapped on my figures, Powerful Dream-65...Bay Watch-66...Thegreyvtrain+Cobweb Catcher-67… Aquadabra-69, THEGREYVTRAIN 4/1 is the only known front runner so could try to pinch this from the front with only AQUADABRA 5/2 rated slightly higher so once again I will be backing both selections.
Aquadabra 7/2 4th
Tegreyvtrain 11/1 7th
