Sassoon – 1.10 Redcar – 1 Mile Seller – 25/1 Bet365 – 2 Point Win.
I put up Sassoon last season and he won for us at rewarding odds of 28/1.
Last year he had finished last in his previous run and was visored for the first time on his favoured soft ground, and he won well off a mark of 55. He went on to win again by 5 lengths off 63.
His form has been really poor this year, finishing last 4 times, but then Sassoon is one of those in and out performers. You have to accept the risk that Sassoon may well come last again, but when he is on a going day, he is decent.
This is a seller and the favourite is rated 64, so with Sassoon only rated 54 he looks poorly treated, but on his decisive win last year he still looks capable of upsetting the favourite. That’s if he can bounce back to form.
I like him today as he is wearing the visor for the first time this season (replaces cheekpieces) and it’s definitely the visor that sparks up Sassoon.
With Andrew Mullen, who won on him for us last season, coming back on for the first time this season and on his much needed soft ground he has a chance 
Because of Sassoon’s in and out profile I am recommending our 2 point win only with Bet365.
He is still value at 16/1
