Not So Super Saturday

With all National Hunt meetings in England and Wales abandoned today the attention turns to the all weather at Wolverhampton and Lingfield. However Fairyhouse provide us with some National Hunt action with some exciting horses on show, none more so than Rathlin who looks to land his second Novice Chase and is odds on to do so. Im going to be providing an Each Way Lucky 15 today with a mix of the two disciplines.

4:45 Fairyhouse - Grey Soldier is the selection for this race, a very promising Novice Hurdler a few years ago but is yet to sparkle over fence, he is still relatively young and there may just be a bit of slight improvement to come. Davy Russell gets the leg up today which can only be viewed as a positive, Yeoman is the main danger to the selection off a low weight.

2:35 Fairyhouse - Another Gordon Elliot runner that i excpect a big run from, Davy Condon is on board this time, the horse is called Szabo's Destiny who unseated his pilot last time when favourite, however is usually a sound enough jumper and in my eyes is the one that could beat the Mullins horse. Note that he also wins on bottomless ground as well.

3:00 Lingfield - Titan Triumph has been running nicely as of late without managing to get his head in front, now rated 80 but when younger won a class 2 off of a rating of 91. Admittedly he probably has lost a bit of his sparkle as he is an 8 year old but it does look as though he is set to run another good race this afternoon. The trainer doesnt have many runners however he has been in great form with his last four runners coming 4212, if they arent encouraging enough then i dont know what is.

3:15 Wolverhampton - My NAP of the day is Archie Rice, not much of a price at 5/2 but has hit a real rich vein of form lately, it seems he only wants to do his winning at today's course after being soundly beaten at Lingfield then winning at Wolverhampton last time out when unfancied. Ryan Clark who takes 3 pounds off is a more than useful apprentice and i'd be very disappointed were he not to get home in front today.

NAP - Archie Rice
NB - Szabo's Destiny

Also try Chjimes in the 2:30 at Lingfield
happy punting as always
