26th July

350 Ascot-The big race of the day and following a deluge of rain on Friday,the favourite Telescope could prove vulnerable.
On quick ground this horse would have a very good chance but its never been at its best with cut in the ground so far in its career.
Magician is respected as is the unbeaten John Gosden filly Taghrooda while Eagle Top is improving from the same stable.
The final horse from the in form Newmarket yard is Romsdal,who finished a good 3rd last time in the Derby.
Each of its runs so far have produced an improved rating and it just shouldnt be the price it is.
Back Romsdal 3pts each way at 23.0 at Skybet(Accept 13.0)-UP(-6pts)Halved in price but nowhere near good enough.


415 Newcastle-This is fairly weak.Vicky Valentino just heads the ratings but is the right price particularly for a horse with a 1 from 17 career record.
Elizabeth Coffee has won at this trip but my ratings suggest its slightly better at shorter.
Wilhana drops in class but ran 10Ibs below its run 2 starts back,last time while Star in the Eye hasnt got going this season so far.
Magic Art needs a drop of rain but should get it.Its only had a handful of starts for the Marco Botti stable and is the value here.
Back Magic Art 8pts at 5.5 at Betvictor(accept 5.0)-2nd(-8pts)Looked the winner(touched 1.4) but after mastering Vicky Valentino,it couldnt hold Wilhana.The pair were miles clear.

340 Newcastle-The stable form is a slight concern but the price is so big,Bowdlers Magic has to be supported.
Its current form sees it not far off its rivals anyway but it drops back into a class 5 for the first time in 2 years(Class 5 3w-1p-5r) and on the rating it posted the last time it ran in this grade then its got a serious chance.
Miss Macnamara has been in good form but as of yet hasnt won away from Catterick.This is a totally different track.
Madrasa has good claims on its latest win over 1m6 but its 0w-0p-3r over todays trip of 2 miles and a record of 0w-0p-8r at this track is hardly encouraging.
Longshadow drops in class and is fairly consistent.It shouldnt be far away.
Back Bowdlers Magic 4pts each way at 12.0 at Betvictor(Accept 7.0)-3rd(+4.8pts)(DT-9.2pts)
*Backing the place on betfair exchange to ensure 3 places)*
Monthly Total+95.60pts
Running Total+7097.85pts
