The Follow The Money crew give us their usual two backs and one lay ahead of today's racing.
Welcome to Follow the Money for Sunday 15th July. Today's movers come from Sligo, Fairyhouse and Stratford.
We start with Sligo and in the 14:55 Novice Hurdle Passage Venedome has been on the drift out to 3.152/1 from 2.331/1. The Willie Mullins gelding likes decent ground and was found out last time by the trip so he drops down to the minimum trip over 2 miles. This may be too great a drop in trip as he needed quite a lot of urging to win two starts ago and this looks quite a hot contest compared to what he's faced previous so he may just have his work cut out.
Over to Fairyhouse now where in the feature Listed race at 15:05 Arctic has been well supported from 4.73/1 in to 3.92/1 for Tracy Collins. This five year old was a Group 3 winner at two and even managed a 5th in the Group 1 Prix de l'Abbaye at three before losing his way subsequently. This season he's looked back to somewhere near his best, bolting up in a handicap and then taking second in a big sprint handicap at the Curragh. He steps back up to listed class today and with his favoured soft conditions sets the standard in what looks an ordinary contest with the main dangers having a preference for top of the ground.
The United Kingdom stages two jumps cards today and our next mover takes us to Stratford where in the 17:20 there has been a bit of money about for Free Falling, an apt name considering the direction of her handicap mark! She's been nibbled in the market from 12.011/1 in to 9.08/1 on her first start for trainer Lawney Hill. This trainer change is particularly interesting as her trainer is adept at improving horses brought in from other stables and although Free Falling's latest form says she'll struggle to win this, there is a very high possibility that she's back to the form that saw her win off 5lbs higher than today. She is also back over a more suitable trip and as long as things don't get too soft, she looks well worth a punt.
