That picture of Red Cadeaux coming 2nd in the Melbourne Cup still brings a tear to my eye every time i see it.. Anyway.
Jupiter Rex won impressively for us today, shame our 2nd horse didnt do so well, drifted like a barge and finished way down the field, for a horse that loves Fontwell.. i was fairly suprised he didnt put up more of a fight, nevermind.
I am going to be boring with my selections today, going to attempt a potentially nailed on double.
Hannahs Turn 1545 (4/6) Southwell & Elusive Hawk 16:20 Southwell (11/8).
Elusive Hawk should of won a few days ago, when he got impeded big time by a loose horse, as he turned into the straight he went to the front and then was forced over to the other side of the track. Lost about 6 lengths with that and still amazingly stayed on strongly for 3rd. If he goes out and tracks the leaders like he did that day, he can kick on down the straight and finally pick up his 2nd win in 3 runs.
Hannahs Turn has put in some solid performances after switching away from Lingfield, Kempton and Wolverhampton. Now at Southwell, she’s 2 from 2 over C&D and has won over 5 furlongs at Southwell too. The extra furlong seems to be to her liking, where she oblitorated the field at 6l over 7f last time out. Against some in and out performers in a small field race, i fully expect her to notch up her 3rd C&D win.
The double pays just under 3-1 with Paddy Power currently. Get on.
