Running Profit for April at SP  33pts

Minstrels Gallery was outclassed yesterday but was sent off at a very short 20/1. Even though the favourite was a non runner 66/1 was available in the morning and it was defintely not value at the sp. I was right to take on Black Cadillac last night but did not pick the right one !

A feature of the turf racing this week has been the number of hyped horses that have started short priced favourites and got turned over. Many of them have not been quite spot on and they wouldn't want hard races on this type of ground so early in the season.

Again today Aljamaaheer, Popular and Wrotham Heath look very short to me and I will lay all three at the early prices and trade out if they drift.

Selections:-

1.35 Newbury Confessional 1pt win

Tim Easterby's horses have needed the outing so far and if Confessional is race fit now would have a decent chance here. Wouldn't risk ore than a point though.

6.30 Bath Beyond Desire 1pt win

Comes from a yard in form and has run well fresh and beaten Night Carnation. Looks the value - tight race.

8.00 Bath Kyllachy Storm 1pt ew

Will get a tow from Dancing Welcome (who looks overpriced 20 lbs lower the all weather) and this Bath specialist has dropped to a winning mark. Looks to have been prepared for this race and with four places look ew banker.
