Paul Ferguson has one selection on Saturday; Brabazon in the 7.50 at Wolverhampton. Early price even money at Betfred
Sadly Sandown’s wonderful Tingle Creek meeting is the biggest jumps fixture to date to fall foul to the elements, but Exeter are very hopeful that turf and National Hunt racing will return tomorrow – I’ve got everything crossed that it is on.
In the meantime and as its Saturday, I’m venturing out of my comfort zone and on to the all-weather to back Brabazon (7:50) at Wolverhampton tonight. Early price: Evens Betfred
The seven-year-old returned to action at snowy Lingfield on Tuesday after an absence of almost two-and-a-half-years, and the Irish raider won as he liked over this trip and landed some nice bets in the process.
Backed from 50/1 into 11/4, the In The Wings gelding eventually came home by 10l and he can follow up, for his rookie trainer, under a 6lb penalty.
Saturday’s selection:
7:50 Wolverhampton: Brabazon
Paul Ferguson’s Jumpers To Follow 2010-11 is available hot off the press from the 1st October for just £9.99
