Paul Ferguson has one selection for us on Saturday; Clowance House in the Windsor 3.35. Compare odds and bet.
It’s Irish Derby day at the Curragh, but the pick of the domestic action comes from Newcastle, where the feature is the valuable Northumberland Plate.
Following his winning reappearance at York, I was pretty keen on the chances of Montaser for this, but he was handed a poor draw on Thursday and, since then, the weather has also contributed to negate his chance.
He has doubled in price from 6/1 to 12s, but all of his best form has come on a quick surface and his day may come later in the season, possibly over 1m6f, as he’s not short of speed. I hope I’m not left to rue my decision to desert him.
Down at Windsor the unbeaten Clowance Estate (3:35) is taken to maintain his 100% record in the extended 1m3f ToteQuadpot Four Places In Four Races Handicap.
Roger Charlton’s four-year-old picked up really well in the closing stages to score at Sandown recently and, given the trainer’s post race comments, the Teofilo gelding should be expected to improve for what was his first outing in more than a year.
The step up in trip ought to suit and James Doyle’s mount was available at 2/1 with both Bet Victor and Paddy Power overnight.
