This horse is well handicapped now(5Ibs below its last winning mark) and is at its best on the all weather.
It drops in class here into a grade where its comfortable(Class 4 runs on the all weather read 1st-1st-6th-1st-5th).
Jim Crowley(1 from 1 on the horse)takes the ride and he has a 24% strike rate when riding for this yard.
Soul Intent is the early market leader but is unproven here and is 0w-1p-6r in this grade,so looks vulnerable.
Cousin Khee and Double Discount look bigger dangers.
Back Modernism 5pts at 12.0 at Betvictor/Skybet(Accept 9.0)-3rd(-5pts)Well backed into 5/1 but this wasnt a good ride.Buick was granted an easy lead on Soul Angel and made it count meanwhile Crowley had Modernism in last off a slow pace and it stayed on well but was never going to get there.
545 Perth-Its possible the unexposed Island Heights could improve past it but Solway Sam looks the most reliable to run its race here.
At the age of 11,its holds no secrets from the handicapper but has plenty going for it profile wise,including a good 3w-2p-11r record at this track.
Its 2w-1p-3r when returning to the track within 15 days and its young jockey has a form figures of 1st-2nd-1st when riding this horse.
Tico has run well on its last 2 starts but a record of 1 win from 36 starts is hardly inspiring.
Back Solway Sam 10pts at 5.0 at various bookies(Accept 4.3)-2nd(-10pts)Ran a fine race but was beaten by a horse that the selection had beaten twice in its 2 previous runs :-(
315 Goodwood-Solid handicap form against potential here.Spacelab provides the latter and heads the market and you can understand why but whether it should be as short as 2/1 is another matter.Its trainer has won this 3 times in the last decade,so it has to be respected but looks too short to me.
Serena Grae looks rock solid to run its race and its possible that could be good enough.
This is a drop in class and its 2w-0p-7r in fields of 9 or less.It finished 2nd to a horse last time, that has followed up since.
King Calypso is improving but steps up 2 grades and the market has it about right.
Back Serena Grae 7pts at 7.0 at Corals/Ladbrokes(Accept 5.0)-Won(+42pts)Tough battling performance to get back up after the fav had headed it.(DT+27pts)
Monthly Total+107.91pts
Running Total+7175.87pts
