2.30 Southwell – Mataajir 2 pt win 11/4
A weak handicap, which won’t take
much winning and if Mataajir returns from his 6 week break in top form, he well
take all the beating.
He has already won 3 times this winter,
but shaped at Wolverhampton last time that this mark isn’t beyond him, when
looking as though a step back up to 8 furlongs could see him return to the
winners enclosure. Providing he breaks
well, I expect him to sit handy and prove too good for todays opposition.
Caledonia Prince has been in
decent form too this winter but last time I felt that the handicapper has hold
of him for now. Josh Baudains who gets
on well with the horse, and has been claiming 7lbs off him, is replaced by Jo
Fanning today, meaning that he has it all to do at the weights.
The biggest danger could be
Myraid, who although is still a maiden, shaped as though there is a race in him
when finishing 3rd over course and distance last time. If they ride him a bit more prominently
today, then he could well chase Mataajir home.
