A profitable day yesterday with Elusive Pimpernel winning well in the end having been well backed, and Mastercraftsman giving Sea The Stars a real good race in the Juddmonte. He traded at a low of 1.62 in running, our advice was to trade out at 1.72 so we saved our stake. I hope most of you got on Arsenal (-1) last night at 10/3. The mail was late because we wanted to double check the team sheets, and it was only then that we decided 10/3 was a very good bet. Arsenal looked awesome in possession, but may be vulnerable to a physical side as usual.
The Gimcrack Stakes is our first port of call for a bet this afternoon. John Gosden's Showcasing is being privately touted as a classic prospect for next year and we're told he is showing all the right signs at home ahead of his tilt at today's contest. His form behind Arcano is top drawer, and his win second time out confirmed the promise, although he beat very little. I think he is a better horse than Monsieur Chevalier and tentative formlines suggest he already has the beating of Orpen Grey. 9/4 with Stan James looks a good price and he rates the bet of the day.
The O'Brien trained favourite dominates the Ebor betting, but it's Brian Ellison's Ladies Best who represents the best value here. His dam won four times for John Dunlop over two miles and it appears he has inherited her stamina, for he has looked to be crying out for this trip all season. A string of good performances, including a fifth in the John Smiths Cup over 10f here last time, have caught our attention and at 28/1 he looks way overpriced as an each-way selection.
In the Julia Graves Roses Stakes, Dandy Nicholls Mister Manannan appeals as a worthy favourite who might drift in the betting before the off. He Molecombe second looks rock solid in the context of this race and, although the stable have been quiet in the past week, the current 9/4 represents value and should be taken as a guaranteed price. The opposition mostly have questions to answer and if he goes on the ground, he can land the spoils here.
Best Recommendations:
2.50 York Showcasing, 5pts win @ 9/4 (Stan James) Won
3.25 York Ladies Best 1pt each-way @ 28/1 (Generally)
4.05 York Mister Manannan 3pts win @ 9/4 (Generally, Get guaranteed price) 2nd
