🐎 5/12 SUNDAY PICKS!
📍HUNTINGDON
• 2.27 - ZACONY REBEL 2/1 (2pts) : Reappeared with an improved performance to win at Fontwell, form has been boosted multiple times since and looks to be ahead of this mark. Destrier is interesting on return for the Skelton’s.
• 3.27 - PEUR DE RIEN 9/1 (0.5pt x EW) : Has been warmed up with a trip short of ideal on return and now stepping back up just 3lbs above last winning mark, looks to have a decent opportunity under top course jockey Burke.
This is an open race though the tizzard horse has every right to be fav and carry on improving while I wouldn’t rule out course specialist Lord Sparky
📍 KELSO
• 1.03 - BIG RIVER 6/1 (1pt) : Anywhere else this horse is on the black list but at Kelso he is a must for the shortlist.
With form figures here of 11211112 I completed starts at this venue and with many of these trying the marathon distance for the first time.. I fancy he’ll be staying on when plenty are waving the white flag.
Potential for an each way play if you want some security, I’m happy to have him on the nose at current price though a drift would change my mind.
• 1.35 - DOYEN BREED 10/3 (1pt) : Sandy Thompson and Ryan Mania stroke at around 25% when teaming up and this one could still be ahead of its mark having only just scraped a narrow win over the resurgent Emitom at Hexham.
Could be the value play on this small 4 runner event though Bushy Park is of obvious interest.
📍 PUNCHESTOWN
2.00 - ALLAHO 4/1 (1.5pt) : The BIG race of the day and while all eyes will be on Envoi Allen I can’t believe the price on Mullins star! Mullins hs won 6 of the last 8 runnings of this event and I can’t understand how The likes of Fakir (who he beat by 12 lengths) is ahead in the market, and I’m still not convinced that envoi retains all his magic.
Officially the highest rated horse in this race and I fancy him to let it show.
