Wetherby 4.50

 

A decent field here and a few tipped or very much noted last time out.

 

I'm happy to take on the short priced favourite White Rhino who bolted up at Southwell last time at 33/1 out of the blue and upped 7lbs on this very different Track. Red Ochre has form figures of PPPP2, the 2 coming here over Course and Distance at 100/1 off a mark of 73 in a race that fell apart and I tend to think a bit of a quirk. Bushmill Boy is probably the stronger form of the top of the market despite being pretty moderate and i think he can run an enhanced place.

 

I can't ignore DESARAY GIRL who we tipped when runner up at 25/1 last time, the Yard again send a few here and I think this one is primed and ready to win. Pileup will be a danger with some Course form and dropped in trip it just missed out on the final 3 so will eb the standby reserve if any non runners from the selections. Astroman has run on in to a distant place a few times and is probably one of the more likely ones although not jumping off the page exactly. 

 

I will add Millie Of Mayo to the Tracker as she has been off since September 2021 but a 3 timer in 2020 off marks from 85 to 100 clearly suggest some talent and it'll be interesting to see how she fares. The most intriguing one is Mr Dealer, a maiden at a big age but one who has clearly had injury issues with breaks of 504 and 877 days in its career, at a huge price it has placed off higher marks than this and worth nothing.

 

I do think that PERFECT MAN, another Hammond horse that we tipped last time but who made an error at the first that affected its whole race, can figure here with a better round of jumping. A winner off a mark of 134 just over 2 years ago and it may have found a level off a mark of 90 that it can do something with. Another who looks over-priced is JUST CALL ME AL who has 2 hurdle and a Chase win at Sedgefield off marks between 102 and 107 it's come down to a mark of 93 and showed signs last time of returning to some better form.
