Thirsk 3.48
By UK Flat / AW (Northern)
NORTHERN - Thirsk 3.48 Summer Cup Handicap - Class 3 - 1 mile - 16 run - Good to Soft
Substantial for Haggas will be tough to beat and together with Makeen and Dirtyoldtown also drawn low is dominating the market. If the Going was Good to Firm I'd be wary of tipping against these 3 and will play them in a £1 Tricast Perm to cover that low draw bias BUT there is a lot of evidence here with cut in the ground that you can come later and over the top of those sticking to the far rail.
Aswan may or may not have trained on and is a danger if it has, but I'm keen on three more experienced and exposed types who have nice marks to exploit.
PISANELLO for the in form O'Meara yard is drawn 9, it will benefit from the cut in the ground and this looks a good chance off an increasingly competitive mark. The same applies to GIVE IT SOME TEDDY a Course and Distance winner off a mar of 74 and who gets in off 73 and drawn in Stall 10.
At bigger odds I think CHALLET if it breaks on terms and tucks in and comes wide and late in the straight is a crazy price off a mark of 83. It'll need luck in running but the heart says the mark is too good to ignore.
TRACKERS - Pisanello + Give It Some Teddy / shrapnel - Challet (note suggested small T/Cast perm)
