7.15 Ascot Joey's Destiny 5pts win @ 9/1 (Generally guaranteed)
This is a tough looking sprint, but at the prices Joey's Destiny looks well worth backing. The selection has returned in very good form as a four year old, and his second placed finish behind Flyman is a race that has worked out very well and looks a key piece of form. He followed that up with another second behind Huntsman's Close, a piece of form on which he holds Blessington. The selection represents a trainer whose horses go particularly well at this track, and a jockey who rides the course very well - we'll long be indebted to Pat Cosgrave for riding Society Rock into second in the Jubilee @ 50/1, and the following year winning it under a fine ride when we were on at 33/1. The draw is something of an unknown, and there is little each-way value to be had with fifteen lining up, but I'm happy to back the selection win only for a decent payday should he continue his progression in this slightly better contest.
Profit & loss: day: -5.00 / month: +167.60 / year: +254.85
