There's some great stats and info on the antepost forum thread on the Old Newton Cup and Very Good Day actually fits quite a few of them despite his uninspiring form figures this year.
However on his form of last year he looks to have a fair chance.
A 3rd to a Group One Royal Ascot winner is obviously a stand out and he went on to win his maiden over the C/D after that before being thrown in to Group 3 company which was a bit much.
Starting this year with a probably needed run over 14f and then saved for the Duke Of Edingburgh where he really didn't get going on the soft ground.
Worth a try I feel at 33/1 on much more suitable ground and a realistic handicap mark now from a stable that have hit 10 winners and 10 places from 46 runners in the last 14 days
1 POINT E/W VERY GOOD DAY AT 33/1 (BOG)
