Two bets today and an outlay of eight points, which is not overly big for us. A winner puts us ahead for the week after two disappointing days so far.
In the 1.50 at Southwell, Magic Millie sticks out a mile as a horse who was bred to go on this surface, if ever their was one. She showed very little as a two year old but did put in a good performance first time out at Doncaster in a decent maiden. She is fairly scopey and looks like a galloping type who will be suited by this surface. Her stable have been knocking in winners left right and centre, including over this course and distance with this young jockey. If she turns up fit and ready to run, she could be very well in off a mark of 50 and might have the beating of this moderate bunch.
In the last contest of the day at Kempton, Clive Brittain's Barlaman is given another chance to show improvement from his Godolphin days. He pulled far too hard last time over a mile and the step back to six furlongs, in hindsight, looks a good call. He likes to race prominently and he is drawn best of all here in stall eight, and I reckon his jockey will try to bag an early lead and keep it all the way to the finish. Physically, he is a magnificant looking horse but he has only shown glimpses of what he can do so far, in my view. Clive Brittain does so well with this type of horse, and 8/1 looks a big price.
Best Recommendation:
1.50 Southwell Magic Millie, 4pts win @ 12/1 (Betfred, guaranteed)
8.30 Kempton Barlaman, 4pts win @ 13/2 (Generally, get guaranteed)
