NAP – Best selection of the evening
THE NAP (BEST BET) NOW RUNS OVER JUMPS AT SOUTHWELL ON MONDAY AFTERNOON!
Southwell 4.10 Ever So Cool (6/5)
Shaped with promise a few times but looked an improved individual knuckling down well under pressure to open her account back from 7 months off the track at Uttoxeter last month; up 3lb but likely to build on that now.
I know EVER SO COOL hasn’t always looked the most straightforward but I thought there was lots to like about the way she battled to the line to win at Uttoxeter on return and given she should strip fitter for that now a 3lb rise shouldn’t be enough to anchor her. Dan Skelton has his string in fine order right now operating at a 44% strike rate in the last fortnight and this mare looks to have plenty going for her in what appears to be a very winnable race. Solstalla was back to winning ways at Newton Abbot last time but she doesn’t always back up performances and struggled for consistency so may be vulnerable up 7lb. Makety is on a good mark and might emerge as a bigger danger.
NB – Second best selection of the day
THE NEXT BEST (SECOND BEST BET) RUNS ON THE AW AT WOLVERHAMPTON TONIGHT!
Wolverhampton 6.50 Mercurial (11/8)
Ran a nice race when runner-up on debut and quickly improved to open his account at Chester last month, doing well having been hampered at the start; good third in a strong race at Beverley since; sets the standard and should have too much.
It’s obviously hard to be overly confident on a horse when he’s coming up against a couple of newcomers but even still MERCURIAL is expected to be a cut above these. He did really well to win at Chester and then chased home the promising Robjon and unbeaten Tipperary Sunset at Beverley. That looked a strong race to me and if he progresses again he will quite simply win this. He already sets the standard and is hard to pick holes in. Sometimes even a short price can look value and that’s what I feel about the 11/8 here. Optimising is the most interesting debutant so he is worth keeping an eye on in the betting. Fiji Gold may be a good bet to run into a place after an encouraging start.
