Since returning to the flat from hurdling and upped to two miles or so the Michael Scudamore owned and trained eight year old mare Red Current has been as consistent as can be. In three all weather races over two miles she has traded down to 2.42 or less each time from starting prices as high as 24.5. She remains in good form and a 3lb rise in the weights should not stop her performing well enough to get us a trade in the 2.00 at Lingfield this afternoon. The others in the race are not tested over this sort of distance so its difficult to predict how the race will be run, because of that its not a nailed on trade but one well worth the risk in my opinion. What we do know is that we may have to wait until late on during the race for our trade as David Kenny does hold the horse up to come with a late run. A small drift has seen the mare put out to 7 on the exchanges leaving us needing in running lay off prices of:
Lay off at 4.6 for a 1 pt all green trade
Lay off at 4.1 for a 1.3 all green or
Lay off at 3.7 for at least a 1.7 all green.
