Work Watcher - Kempton 3.40 7 Handsome Sam - each way @ 9/1
The opening three races look likely to be dominated by short priced horses, a couple of decent
Handicaps follow, a Chase and Hurdle over 3 miles and the Chase at 3.40 looks intriguing.
A lot of newspaper form analysis about Bugsy Malone who beat Cloudy Bob and Get Involved
narrowly in a thrilling contest last time over Course and Distance, on pure form analysis
Cloudy Bob would seem to be better handicapped today but watching the race I'm not sure.
There are though a couple of dark horses in Bronco Billy, who you feel is now adapting
to the bigger fences and HANSOME SAM from the Alan King yard. He was pulled up
17 days ago in the race won by Bugsy Malone, he was though backed in to 11/2; was
going perfectly well when slipping after a jump and was pulled up, later confirmed that
the saddle had slipped. Having watched the race back its clear he was going as well
as anything at the time and with a weight pull and the yard in form, he seems to have
been completely overlooked at 9-10/1 in the market and of course did not fight out the
tough finish up the hill. He'll do for us today as with a clear round will go very close.
