How will Azione fare at Ffos Las today?
"Priors Gold has a touch of class and is up to defying top-weight in the two-mile handicap at Wolverhampton (17.20pm) despite a 6lb penalty for winning a maiden at this track on Friday."
Will Hayler fill the pundit's chair at Timeform Radio today and brings two horses to follow starting at Ffos Las...
With a fine strike-rate and a level-stakes profit for SP backers for the last three years, the Jeremy Scott stable is always one that punters should want to be with.
And odds-against ([2.08]) looks a fair price for Azione as she bids to follow up last week's Exeter win in the UC Better Handicap Hurdle (14.55pm) at Ffos Las this afternoon.
Making her debut for the stable, she soon skipped clear and was never in any danger throughout under Matt Griffiths, holding off the late rally of Water Garden by a length-and three-quarters without ever having to be quite asked for maximum effort.
Of course, there are reasons for fearing a 'bounce' today as she as she comes back to the track just eight days after that first start for more than seven months, while this contest is probably also a little stronger.
But off the same lowly handicap mark - more than a stone lower than her highest rating - and with the prevailing soft ground in her favour, there is no doubt that she deserves to be a hot favourite and the doubts about her are fairly factored into her price.
Priors Gold has a touch of class and is up to defying top-weight in the two-mile handicap at Wolverhampton (17.20pm) despite a 6lb penalty for winning a maiden at this track on Friday.
He has been expensive to follow as a hurdler but ideally wants to do everything on the bridle as he never looks that keen when pressure is applied.
Tom Queally gave him the ideal ride on Friday night, letting him cruise through the contest with only minimal urging before his obvious class told in the closing stages. Although this is hotter, if today's talented teenage rider can keep him similarly sweet for the first mile-and-a-half, he could prove simply far too good where it matters.
Cautious backers might like to consider leaving in a small stake-covering lay at an odds-on price, just in case Priors Gold decides not to exert himself fully in the finish.
