Hopefully some of you laid off at odds on last night when Blackburn were 0-2 up, unfortunately they got a man sent off and the game changed, an entertaining 6-4 win for Villa the result. 5/1 was a ridiculous price and it goes down as a good call in my book, regardless of the result.
Two for today.
The booking of Tom Queally for his only ride of the day looks an interesting one for Silk Hall, who is very good on the all weather and represents Alan King, who does well with his stayers even though he is 0-16 in recent years at Wolverhampton. Silk Hall has won twice here after travelling comfortably, and I think the drop back to 12f is unlikely to inconvenience him today. There are question marks over his fitness but the booking of a top jock catches my eye and at odds of 14/1 in this race he is worth a play. Some of the others are not running over their ideal race conditions (Baylini), our maximum from Saturday, included) and I can't see the appeal of the favourite Dance The Star - why is he so short? A small win looks the call.
Blades Harmony represents Ed McMahon in the maiden. He made an eye catching debut at Southwell in a better race than this and he looks a well made three year old judged on that effort. He missed the break before making up ground travelling wide on slow ground over 7f, and he ran very well until fading in the final furlong. He steps back to an easier 6f on Polytrack today and if he breaks better from the stalls he has every chance. The form of the market principals here is pretty poor and his stablemate, the favourite ridden by Jamie Spencer, does not merit the price he is with the bookies. 11/1 is far too big and I'm happy to risk 4pts.
