Southwell 3.35

 

A race with a lot of latent potential but not too much actual form so far.

 

Eyed has been highly tried against Constitution Hill and Jonbon no less by a canny trainer who will be angling for a decent long term handicap mark. It disappointed on handicap debut but may run better here. Glencassley for the Longsdon team is one we'll TRACK , it showed some promise prior to having a year off and returns today and may just need the run although it has run well fresh after a 6 month break, definitely one who will win races but hopefully not today!

 

I've a niggle about the trip for Surtitle and it's entered  elsewhere tomorrow, both Republican and Bertie Blue at the top end of the market have shown some form but aren't compelling at their respective prices. If you want a WIN SAVER on WHITE RHINO at around 7/4 feel free, the price is warranted but its up 15lbs after a couple of impressive wins and not bomb-proof.

 

The pair I like as each way propositions with a chance of winning if the top 3 falter are the very consistent LEADING THEATRE for the O'Brien team, very solid and consistent form and very fit horse who is the yardstick for all of the others and a quiet fancy too for JACKS TOUCH. Trainer Sarah Humphrey has an excellent wins to run ratio and this one is being brought along slowly as she tends to do, on a natural progression of current form it should be challenging the top 3 here and with a modicum of improvement may be better.
