24/5

220 Goodwood-Felix Mendelssohn is improving and unexposed.I expect it to go very close while Rawaki made a good reappearance and any improvement to last seasons best would see it a big player.

Although lacking a recent run,I think Eye of the Storm could go close here.Its proven in this grade and 2w-1p-4r at this trip.

Of the principals,Ayrad looks vulnerable to me.Fairly well beaten on its seasonal debut.

It has a habit of running well without winning and its difficult to ignore trainer Roger Varians record of 1 win from 52 runners at this track.

Lay Ayrad 20pts at 6.0-Won(-100pts)

620 Ffos Las-It needs to improve slightly again but after just 3 starts over fences,theres every chance that Mac Le Couteau can do so and it should be a big runner here.

Its won twice at this track and thankfully Adam Wedge keeps the ride.

Copper Birch has some good ratings but not on this ground.If the rain came,it would be a danger.

Strumble Head has won 4 times here and is always respected at this track while Shakalakaboomboom could go close if on a going day.

Pigeon Islands trainer has won this race twice from just 2 runners in the last 5 years.It would need to return at its best to take this however and its not getting any younger.

Back Mac Le Couteau 9pts at 5.5 at Paddys(Accept 4.0)-UP(-9pts)Just another rubbish day!(DT-109pts)
