4.0 Plumpton-Im hoping the sheer consistency of Cruising Bye pays off here.
Unlike its opponents it can be relied upon to run its race and despite a frustrating run of 2nd places,I dont believe this horse looks ungenuine.
Last time out it finished just behind todays rival,Volio Vincente and with the pull in the weights plus the fact that race was at Fontwell and Volio is 3/3 at the track,there are strong reasons to feel it can beat that horse today on this different track.
The trainer is 8 from 36(22%) with his handicap chasers here and has one of my favourite jockeys(Jamie Moore) onboard.
Brunette Sonly has chances on its best form but is pretty in and out.Lets hope its an out.
Back Cruising Bye 14pts at 3.5-3rd(-14pts)Very frustrating race to watch as despite the efforts of its jokcey,this horse would not goto the front and was quite happy plodding away behind.Never Again!

350 Ludlow-Wide open handicap and from a value perspective,Kerryhead Storm has to be supported.
This horse had completely lost its way before the introduction of a tongue tie saw it bounce back last time.
That run produced a good rating and a decent topspeed figure,so I dont feel it was a fluke although recognizing its previous record,it cannot be guaranteed that it will back it up.If it does however,then it really shouldnt be the price it is.
Snowell is the biggest danger,all of its 4 career wins have come on right handed courses like this and it would hold strong claims on its rating from 2 starts back.
Back Kerryhead Storm 5pts at 10.0 -2nd(-5pts)Ran a great race and beaten by a well backed horse that dropped down to 2 miles for the first time.(DT-19pts)
