DOUBLE: Ey Up It’s Maggie and Thrilla In Manila
Ey Up It’s Maggie has been plying her trade in decent company this season and looks capable of landing a deserved success in the Equi’s Exquisitely Irresistible Ice-Cream Fillies’ Handicap at Hamilton.
Tony Coyle’s three-year-old rarely runs a bad race, but is paying for that consistency and has found life tougher since reaching a mark in the mid 80s following her victory at Carlisle in May.
That said, she always seems to be there or thereabouts and in fact went off joint-favourite for a valuable handicap won by Tweet Tweet at the Ebor meeting.
While that York assignment proved beyond her, she ran her race and was beaten less than three lengths in fifth.
Her recent record is littered with other similar efforts, and her followers look more or less guaranteed another run for their money.
Thrilla In Manila is a sprinter in form and worth keeping onside in the Turnkey Trotters Handicap.
Paul Midgley’s five-year-old has hit his top stride on his last couple of starts.
Not really in form is Bashosh – but the suspicion remains he is a talented performer, and as such he is given another chance in the Bardykes Farm Nursery School Handicap.
Roger Varian’s charge looked the part on debut, before making rather hard work of it at Doncaster.
Going up in trip to 10 furlongs and a mile and a half looked certain to suit, but he has been beaten at short odds on both runs since his victory on Town Moor.
The mile and a half definitely looked beyond him last time at Wolverhampton, and his trainer comes back to nine furlongs for this latest assignment.
At Bath, Confils could well be the answer to the Cazoo Handicap.
George Baker’s mare is up beyond her highest winning rating after her victory at Brighton three weeks ago.
But she was well on top there, so it is hard to quibble with a 6lb rise for that success from a runner-up who had won on her previous start.
Course-and-distance winner Confils sticks to the 10-furlong trip and clearly relishes the forecast quick conditions.
She has plenty in her favour.
Later on the card, champion jockey Oisin Murphy may well add another winner to his tally as he closes in on a third successive title – courtesy of Snow Berry in the Sky Sports Racing Sky 415 Handicap.
Mick Appleby’s filly was also a winner last time, showing her preference again for a sound surface over this minimum trip at Yarmouth.
That was a clear career-best, turning the form round emphatically with runner-up Kodi Gold from their previous meeting over a furlong further at the same course last month.
A 5lb rise appears far from insurmountable in the circumstances, and it will be no surprise to see Snow Berry improve again.
Up at Newcastle, Triple Jaye can shine in the Thank You The Two Diageo Kevs Handicap.
She was last seen when beaten just under four lengths by the aforementioned Thrilla In Manila at Ayr last time, when it looked as though a switch back to the all weather from the turf might work in her favour.
The three-year-old does just that here – and having struck over this course and distance on her penultimate outing, she is one to consider.
