17/8

All placed yesterday - all I could hope for and being more choosy is paying off.

Today is a day to tread warily with
300 BATH
BETTING FORECAST: 5/4 King O´The Gypsies, 3/1 French Riviera, 11/2 Inquest, 9/1 Darfen, Sakheela, 20/1 Go On Ahead, 25/1 Auction Belle, It´s Early Days, 33/1 Extreme Pleasure, 66/1 Frankly Fantastic, Mr Grumble, 100/1 Topsy Maite ,

SPOTLIGHT VERDICT: KING O'THE GYPSIES faces his easiest task yet and there will be much head scratching by connections if he fails to deliver. Inquest and Darfen may prove his biggest dangers
I like the progressive form BUT don't like the good to soft ground (which always threatens to turn soft as the day progresses)
1.1 place and 1.56 win - not quite the 5/4 forecast!

420 SOUTHWELL
BETTING FORECAST: 15/8 Rawaabet, 5/1 Coronado´s Gold, 7/1 Patsy Bee, 9/1 Sayago, 10/1 Bond Cruz, 12/1 Oncle Bul, Over Ice, 14/1 El Dee, 20/1 Mycenean Prince, The Duckster, 33/1 Dennick, Saddlers Singer, Strathaird, 50/1 Cadeaux Singer, Penny King ,

SPOTLIGHT VERDICT: RAWAABET put up an apparently improved performance last time and gives his new trainer Tim Vaughan an obvious chance of another success

Selling hurdle - YIKES! Nice enough price gap 1.36 place 2.4 win

Limited choice from a price gapper perspective - WIN only on King o the Gypsies, although French Riviera is a little too close price wise - 1.1 is too short for the place despite being an obvious option
