    Backed Red Galileo last time out when coming 2nd in a big handicap at ascot in July and getting absolutely mugged off by the winner who caused ridiculous interference to about 3 horses and somehow kept the race. Red Galileo has only been raised 1lbs for that and is still on a very reasonable mark and I can see him going very close on a track that shout suit, 6/1 with the books but I’ll be backing it on the exchange win only of course

    Haha cheers mate! No idea how I managed that twice, think my job entailing me getting different days off each week messes with my schedule.

    The final horse I like is Amazing Red, will decide on what stake to put on each tomorrow.

    Cheers Ben, I’ll take a chance on Fidaawy at the 14’s, and hoping he has a change of luck from last run. Looked dangerous that day, and I think he looks overpriced here.

    I also like Speedo Boy BB and the booking of Silvestre De Sousa catches the eye as he could have ridden Godolphin’s Game Starter who he won on at Newmarket last time out. I think he’s going to be suited by the step up in distance and a bit more cut.
    The last time Silvestre switched from a fancied ride to a less fancied one was on 2000 Guineas Day at Newmarket when he could have ridden the 13/8fav Victory Angel for Roger Varian, who finished 8th, but chose to be on Daniels Flyer who did just that at 25/1. This seems a similar scenario so hoping it will be profitable for me again, fingers well and truly crossed.. :rose: Jac

    Things turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...

    I was on Red Galileo, another 2nd… Never had so many 2nds in so few days.

    Congrats Venture!
