Weekly Review
Satwa Laird – Was given a very strange ride by Jamie Spencer. Satwa Laird, has always shown his best form when ridden up with the pace. In today’s race he broke well, was then restraint to the rear, was taken wide, and never came under maximum pressure. Satwa Laird may be slightly quirky, but not as quirky as his jockey. He’s defiantly one to keep an eye on, and has an entry at Lingfield on Friday.
Hidden Glory – Ran a cracker having been put up as a value bet at 22/1. He’s never going to be one for maximum faith, as he’s reliant on a strong pace and can find less than expected. The handicapper has dropped him 1lb to a mark of 75, and would be worth a second look if his trainer can find a suitable race.
Alhaban – Won nicely having been put up as a bet at 5/1. Will continue to be of interest in 7/8 furlong handicaps at Lingfield, where he is building up a decent record.
Showboating – Was slightly disappointing as the race went exactly how I thought it would go, but he didn’t find as much as expected. I still have a suspicion he needs to be ridden prominently, so given a low draw and those tactics he could still show an upturn in his recent form.
Piscean – Looks ready to strike. Well handicapped and running into form. Hopefully his trainer can find him a suitable 6 furlong handicap at Lingfield over the coming weeks.
Take The Breeze – Didn’t jump well enough, but travelled as though he’s well enough handicapped to go close if he can sort that out. Handicapper dropped him 2lbs to a mark of 140.
Whipphound – Shaped as though he needed the run, but is well enough handicapped to go close, if stepping up next time.
