12th October

400 Wetherby-Phillip Hobbs won this race last year and looks to have a good chance again with Art Of Logistics.
This horse has been running well and these conditions are ideal for it.
I like its profile with 3 wins from 4 starts during October and a good record of 5w-0p-12r when returning to the track within 40 days like today.
Id have it a much shorter price than it is.
The money has come for The Grey Taylor and although its got a bit to find on my figures,you have to respect a record of 2w-1p-4r around this track.
Lord Wishes returns after a little break and it can go well fresh plus its won around here but I just wonder if it wants softer ground.
Back Art Of Logistics 10pts at 5.0 at Various bookies-4th(-10pts)Had every chance but too many sloppy jumps cost it.

505 Wetherby-Considering there are question marks about so many here,im surprised to see Domtaline trading at double figure odds.
Its been in good form and likes this time of year(Sept/Oct 3w-1p-8r).The ground is ideal and it should be able to creep into this off a likely strong pace.Its got the ratings to go very close.
Ulis De Vassey is inconsistent and is now 12Ibs higher than its win 2 starts back,its also left the Dan Skelton yard and that cannot be a positive.
Monbeg River returns after an absence,it can go well fresh but has also underperformed in the past,this ground looks quick enough for it though.
Helium looks a threat after a recent pipe opener on the flat,the trainer is 2 from 3 with her chasers here and the horse is 5w-3p-15r from October to December.
Trust Thomas finished last season in good style but its record first time out is awful(28Ibs below its average) and I cant see it being there at the finish while Attimo has questions to answer on ground,trip and fitness.
Back Domtaline 5pts at 11.0 at Corals-3rd(-5pts)Money for it but another that was hampered by some poor jumps at crucial stages.(DT-15pts)
