6.10 Wolverhampton Attain 1pt each-way AND 2pts win @ 9/1 (Bet Victor, guaranteed, 8/1 generally guaranteed)
Attain is 0-17, but runs his best races over this course and distance and was probably sent to the front too soon last time out, when he matched a rival whom he would have been 3lb better off with in a handicap, until the final hundred yards. This race looks fairly well loaded with pace and I'm hoping this good 5lb claimer will choose to hold Attain up a bit longer and bring him with a wide, late run. The selection is drawn in stall 9, which I feel is a major advantage because I think there is a bias against the inside rail at Wolverhampton just lately - horses that race close to the rail just aren't winning. Timing will be everything here, but the selection appears to be getting his act together, and I can't fault his attitude or handicap mark based on that last run. 8/1+ is too big.
Profit & loss: day: -4.00 / month: -40.55 / year: +424.95
