Its not too often that I get involved in Maiden races, normally I prefer to see some form in the book before getting too involved. Today though I fancy we may be able to have a trade in the Maiden race that is the first at Carlisle this afternoon. The Howard Johnson owned and trained Galilee Chapel is the horse, two maiden runs so far the gelding has ran well finishing fifth and sixth showing good early speed both times before fading in the later stages, they were six furlong races and the drop back to this stiff five furlongs at Carlisle may just be what he wants. Its a very open race on the face of it. Galilee Chapel backed at 13 with an in running lay off price of 7.8 needed for an all green to 1.3 pts or lay off at 8.6 for a 1 pt green screen.
Always a worry when 2 yo races are delayed like that but no worries as Galilee Chapel traded all the way down to 4.4 in running for a nice easy trade and 1.3 pt all green scree profit, happy days.
