/ David Cleary / 16 February 2012 / Leave a Comment Two bets from the in-form David Cleary to try and make this a good Thursday for all of us...
Leicester and Musselburgh provide today's jumping action and while the cards look rather run-of-the-mill, there are a few races which will hopefully offer good betting opportunities. Marginally the best race of the day is the novice handicap chase at Leicester at 16.35. This has a competitive look to it, certainly more open than the morning prices indicate with Prince of Pirates a short price on reputation and potential rather than form. The pick of the prices looks to be Gotoyourplay, who showed marked improvement to win a similar event at Newbury last time. The first two did well to come clear in that and although Gotoyourplay has gone up plenty, he might have gone up more. The sound-jumping Lexicon Lad is the chief danger.
Staying at Leicester, the two-mile novice chase at 15.35 has attracted a field of just six, three of which face stiff tasks in a ratings-related contest. Quite The Man could be a danger if a break has freshened him up, but the race is most likely to concern Niceonefrankie and He's Our Lad. He's Our Lad hasn't won so often as he should have and doesn't always find much under pressure, but wearing blinkers for the first time today may help in that regard. His form looks stronger than that of his main rival.
Recommended Bets:
Back Gotoyourplay @ [9.4] in the 16.35 at Leicester
Back He's Our Lad @ [3.7] in the 15.35 at Leicester
