A nice win at an extraordinary price for Twilight Glory at Lingfield yesterday. The early morning 5/2 looked a bit strange but despite drifting out to 9/1 the horse stayed on resolutely. Shot Boii was in contention all the way before just fading to 3rd and it was not surprising to see Mortens Leam run another solid race and once again be unfortunate in finishing just out of the money. The pair of more speculative selections at Musselburgh failed to trouble the judge but may have better chances in more suitable conditions.

 

The cards at Fontwell and Uttoxeter don't offer too much punting scope, so we'll attack the 2 Divisions of the 3 mile Handicap Hurdle at Punchestown where Michael (who has had a short breather having been a bit under the weather) has some confident fancies at nice prices, to go with a couple of "win bankers".
