8th July

430 Catterick-Last time out,Hot Spice had its ideal conditions(2 miles.class 5 and fast ground).
Here despite still being suited by the trip,its up in class(Class 4 0w-0p-12r) and looks likely to be racing on rain softened ground(Ratings are 20Ibs worse in such conditions)
It really should be around the 15/2 mark rather than being favourite at 100/30.
High Secret has been progressive on the all weather and has decent turf form for a yard that have a 34% strike rate here with their older horses.
Cousin Khee drops in class and will like the ground while Miss Macnamara is 4 from 7 at this track.
Sands of Fortune makes its handicap debut and cant be discounted.Also Chivers drops in class and prefers cut in the ground like it will get here.
Lay Hot Spice 15pts at 4.8(Lay upto 6.0) Lay 10 pts to place-Non Runner

250 Wolves-Purely from a value standpoint,Medieval Bishop shouldnt be the price it is.
Its been in rock solid form,likes this track and although you couldnt say it was well handicapped,its current price has to be considered value.
Noguchi is 4w-1p-8r at this track but was well below form here last time.
Lacey will run its race but struggles to win(Career 2/32) while Fire in Babylon rises in class(Class 5 0w-0p-7r)
Back Medieval Bishop 7pts at 7.0 at Ladbrokes(Accept 6.0)-UP(-7pts)Halved in price but ran a very laboured race.

520 Wolves-I cant resist a little play on Course Specialist,Star Links here.
Although mainly on the old surface ,it is 8w-3p-20r here but its best run this season so far,came at this track in April,in 2 grades higher and off a mark 11Ibs higher.
This is its first run in a class 5 on the all weather since 2011 and a repeat of that run in April,would see it go very close at a massive price.
There are plenty of dangers in a competitive race but this price is too big to miss.
Back Star Links 4pts at 17.0 at various bookies(Accept 13.0)-UP(-4pts)Ran like its price suggested.


640 Bath-There has been money for Hit The Lights but it will need the visor to really work to win this.
Its got a record of 0w-1p-9r over this trip and the trainer is just 2 from 57 with his runners here.
Captain Ryan must go well as it drops in class ,at its favourite track.
Its raced here,on fast ground,around this trip and in class 6 grade 5 times and finished 1st-1st-3rd-1st-3rd.
Catalinas Diamond is another horse that likes it here(2 CD wins) and wont be far away while Air of York is an improving 3yo who won well last time and clocked the best speed figure in the race.
Lay Hit the Lights 15pts at 4.2 to win and 10pts at 1.65 to place-2nd(+7.75pts after commission)(DT-3.25pts)
