Friday's horse racing thread 🧵 Sandown 3.23 Alcarath 11/4 Sandown 3.58 Bridge Of Eagles 4/1 each way York 4.10 Altareq 9/4 NEXT BEST York 4.45 Schrodinger's Cat 4/1 each way Goodwood 6.04 Lavender Gold 7/4 NAP Goodwood 6.39 Selenic 13/2 each way There is more to come from ALCARATH and down 1lb with Rossa Ryan booked I can see him going close. The yard are in good form and I can see this track suiting too. This is competitive but he has the potential to improve and appeals more than more with his unexposed profile. I was impressed with BRIDGE OF EAGLES at Goodwood and I wouldn't judge him too harshly on that run at York. This is just his third start in handicap company and with further progress a distinct possibility now he has more to come off this sort of mark with Billy the kid taking over in the saddle. I have this between the top two in the market and I'm really keen on ALTAREQ getting the better of the argument. This son of Frankel went down just over a length over C&D on reappearance and then looked a bit outpaced back in trip at Hamilton. This step back up to a mile and a quarter is a definite plus and he almost certainly has more to come. I know SHRODINGER'S CAT failed to land the gamble at Chester on penultimate start but he ran a big race in defeat and wasn't disgraced at this track last time. These are calmer waters and if back to something like his best he could find himself back in the winners enclosure here. I'm all over LAVENDER GOLD here for David Menuisier. He shaped like he needed the run when down the field on return following a wind op at Haydock. His handicap debut at Wolverhampton was quite eye-catching and with more to come over this trip with this softer ground ideal he can step forward and get off the mark now. He has the most potential of these and I'll be disappointed if he is beaten. I just think SELENIC did too much too soon at Kempton last month. I'd be confident she is better than that and now switching to turf off a 2lb lower mark and back slightly in trip it wouldn't be a huge surprise to see her back on track here. She appeals as being overpriced in the market.

Thursday's horse racing thread 🧵 Newbury 3.30 Forty Years On 7/4 Newbury 4.05 Wild Clary 2/1 Yarmouth 5.03 Rockafeller Skank 1/1 NAP Newbury 5.15 Mythical Bay 6/5 NEXT BEST Leopardstown 8.30 Rodeo Blues 4/1 each way Catterick 8.59 Uppercase 9/2 each way I backed FORTY YEARS ON a couple of times last season and she didn't let me down. She has progressive form and this test will suit her well. She has further improvement to come this season and with the ground ideal she should take a lot of beating here. I backed WILD CLARY at Carlisle and he ran well to finish third. He was beaten a little over a length and the two horses in front of him both look on upward curves. He is off the same mark and another run like that could see him salute the judge again. It was gamble landed for ROCKAFELLER SKANK over a mile here yesterday. It looks significant he is turned out so quickly stepping up to a mile and a quarter and if he handles the quick turnaround then quite simply he should follow up against these rivals. No surprise to see the money come for MYTHICAL BAY. He has been beaten twice this season but went down just a length at Chester and then had excuses back on the AW last month. He has more to come back on turf meeting softer conditions and looks difficult to oppose now. Off a light weight RODEO BLUES must have a big shout here. This Blue Point filly ran well on handicap debut at Gowran and if stepping forward again she could have a great chance to get off the mark now. There should be a lot of pace on so she will needs the gaps but I'm expecting her to be finishing strongly. I was impressed with UPPERCASE at Yarmouth and if he builds on that again here he surely gets involved? He was still quite keen last time so if settling better would be capable of an even bigger performance. This is competitive but at the prices he is worth chancing.
