Ozone Layer

Was I the only one who thought Orsippus had won yesterday - gutted.  As far as Secret Queen was concerned it did not pay to come off the pace at Nottingham and I would have thought Mickael Barcelona would have realized this after his ride on Invisible Man. Perhaps the horse just couldn't keep up but it was never nearer than the finish and was perhaps a little unlucky.

A loss of 1.8 points for the day so let's call it minus 2 but as usual I assume you got better than 3/1 on Orsippus.

I am sticking at Wolverhampton today where at least we know the state of the ground.

3.10 Wolverhampton - Zain Princess 1pt win

I am prepared to forgive the last two runs as they were on heavy ground over trips too far. Previously the horse had shown good form over this course and distance. Tis Rock 'N' Roll looks strong but the horse it beat last time by 4 lengths was 43 lengths behind Zain Princess in a earlier race. The negative is that I do not like the jockey and hope he does not hold the horse up way out the back so just a one pointer and win only I think. 8/1 is the price now.


3.40 Wolverhampton  - Redair 2pts win

A few old favourites turn out here but I will stick with the new kid on the block and hope the three year old can beat it's elders. It has won the last three times here and there are big question marks over all the others for one reason or another. It is 3/1 on here at the moment so that will do.

4.40 Wolverhampton - Steady Gaze 0.5 pts ew

will probably need the race as it has its first run for 105 days but has won after a break at 33/1 in the past. Didn't handle the track at Southwell last time but before that was very impressive at Kempton.  We should get 20/1 plus on this one.

I won't mention the other ones considered today as they are all trading at short prices

Good luck all
