1pt each-way double on today's selections, 7/1 and 14/1 generally guaranteed)
1.30 Southwell Day Star Lad 4pts win @ 15/2 (Bet Victor, guaranteed, 7/1 generally guaranteed)
Has elements in his pedigree which suggest this surface will be to his liking, and represents a stable whose horses do well at this track, including two year olds moving into their three year old season around December and January (think Shawkantango). The selection was clearly outpaced last time over five furlongs at Wolverhampton, but stayed on very nicely despite having had a serious dose of kickback in his face. The step up to six furlongs will definitely suit him, and a good draw in stall eight means he can stay wide and ease his way into the race. The market leaders don't look any great shakes and I think he can pick them up late; 7/1+ is good value.
2.30 Southwell Flirtinaskirt 4pts win @ 14/1 (Generally guaranteed)
This is another 5f sprint loaded with pace, and Martin Harley was seen to great effect on Bedloe's Island in a similar contest last week, producing his mount with a well timed winning challenge. The selection is relatively unexposed, and already has a course and distance win to her name as well as a fair second. She hasn't been in form just lately but has probably been trained for these five furlong Southwell sprints and better can be expected off OR67 today. The booking of the excellent Harley is the icing on the cake and 14/1 is too big up against quite a few exposed performers who only have one way of running - ie. from the front.
Profit & loss: day: -10.00 / month: +34.25 / year: +402.70
