Friday September 18th

One bet for this afternoon and a possible evening bet which will be released at 5pm:

Brian Meehan is having another cracking season with his juveniles and it it interesting he sends Sophie's Beau back to Newmarket for this strapping colt's second run. He made a very eye catching debut over seven furlongs here on August 14th, pulling Daryl Holland's arms out for most of the race, running green but seeing out his race very well under tender handling at the finish. He finished 5th of 16 which struck me as very promising given how much energy he had expended in the early stages. Meehan steps him back to six furlongs which should suit him perfectly at this stage given the visual evidence of his first two starts, and he retains a group one entry in the Middle Park. The selection is a very strong looking physical specimen and I expect him to come on leaps and bounds for his debut run, as manyb of Meehan's do. The stable's jockey of choice, Martin Dwyer, takes the ride.

Best Recommendation:

2.00 Newmarket Sophie's Beau, 3pts each-way @ 8/1 (Generally, get guaranteed) E/W 2nd
