Friday April 30th

Two bets for today:

Tomorrow is a huge day for us and I can't wait, to be honest!

2.20 Musselburgh Bombay Mist 1pt win @ Betfair SP

Small speculative bet, first time eyeshields for this horse who has showed blinding early speed and if she can stay on firm ground on turf, might have a chance of winning this poor race. Stable are in fine form and the booking of the excellent Silvestre De Sousa to do the light weight is eye catching.

2.30 Doncaster Night Lily 2pts each-way 16/1 (VC Bet, Guaranteed - 14/1 generally) each-way 2nd

Tony Culhane deserts Toby Tyler to ride Night Lily, who has changed stable and makes her debut for Paul D'Arcy today. He does really well with fillies and mares and I think he will find more improvement with a horse who was fourth to Rainbow View on her debut and has gone close on ground similar to todays on numerous occasions. She looks to be open to further progress and I notice she has another entry over seven furlongs in a few days at Warwick - could it be a plan to turn her out under a penalty? Many of today's rivals look to have question marks of one sort or another and 16/1 about a horse proven on the ground and over the trip looks good each-way value.
