4.30 Wolverhampton – Honey Of A Kitten 2pt win 7/1
After an encouraging start for
David Evans, Honey of A Kitten has proven very disappointing. This has resulted in a big drop in the
handicap, but there were signs last time at Lingfield that he could be on his
way back.
His best run so far for David
Evans, was over course and distance off a mark of 82. He was beaten just over 2 lengths off, and a
reproduction of that effort will see him win today off his current mark of 64. I find it interesting that he’s also entered
up over course and distance on Friday. Today’s
race is an apprentice handicap, so he won’t pick up a penalty were he to win
today and run on Friday. This is a loop
hole that certain trainers look to exploit, David Evans being one of them.
The favourite Vanilla Rum, is
also entered for Friday’s race, and he is still well handicapped despite
winning 2 out of his last 3. He isn’t
the easiest of rides though, as he doesn’t do much once hitting the front, and
sulks if he gets too far behind. Joe
Fanning has ridden him perfectly of late, but this is Jack Duern’s first time
on him, and at around 7/4 this was a big enough negative to take him on.
