FFos Llas 8.50

 

A fair few Jumpers who seem to have become a bit sour and a few Flat types yet to deliver on some apparent potential.

 

Diamond Cutter for Davis Menuisier and Earth Giant for Kevin Phillipart De Foy both come from progressive Flat yards with excellent strike rates and both have been previously well supported but not really delivered. A case with both I think of untapped potential but it seems to be taking a fair while for the penny to drop with both. Hopefully its not tonight"

 

Alpine Stroll is up 4lbs for a win at 14 furlongs and has twice failed to deliver at 2 miles, its clearly though an improving and in form horse so not lightly discounted.

 

GYENYAME looks to me the one they have to beat if you want a win saver and if any of the aforementioned are well backed and the price of this one went 4/1 or better I would suggest an each way saver on this one.

 

At bigger odds Blazon has become a competent AW performer at the trip but returns to turf for the first time in almost 2 years, it should outrun odds but at a price I much prefer TIN FANDANGO. I liked this one very much on its own merits, it is close to it's last Turf win mark, is solid in the context of the race and prefers a bit of cut in the ground. It's normally on the soft side here and a cloudy day and any early evening dew will help too. I'd have tipped it before seeing that it was recently beaten by GYENYAME by 5 lengths but gets a 7lbs pull and the uncerfoot conditions may favour TIN FANDANGO.
