1.50 York - Pogo 6/1ew

Imagine Lord Glitters and Zabeel Prince have little improvement left at 7 but are the top two rated with strong course form. So in looking for something to improve passed them I land on Pogo. Same rating as Lord Glitters but looks to be still improving. Won a solid C2 handicap at the festival last year and latest pitched into a G1 following a Listed romp. A step back to G3 must be well withing reach with Moore booked

 2.05 Sandown - New Chapter 4/1

Won very easily when short of room last time out. Looks ahead of mark on handicap debut.

2.25 York - Favourite Moon 10/3

I just can't get away from these Haggas runners. The form of that Haydock race is rock solid.

2.40 Sandown - Engimatic 7/1ew

Few insterestng formlines here, but Engimatic came from last to first last time out with something to spare and has won a C2 Handicap of new mark before. James DOyle has been booked to make sure :)

3.00 York - Threat 17/2ew. One Master/Threat Rfc 25/1

Given how much am all over Haggas I need to find one to beat. Probably the worst idea to get one of the best 7f speacialists beat, but if Threat bounces back to form has a serious chance of doing it. Gets the 3year old allowance,  and won the Grimrack last year, a G2 winner and also won over 7f.

3.15 Sandown - Sea Trout Reach 11/1ew

Another Haggas horse who looks well handicapped over a mile. 

3.40 York - Ranch Hand 20/1ew

Wouldn't get carried away with this one, but given last effort over C&D could be really well handicapped. Ive backed this many times thinking it is and not been right, but maybe today is the day. 

4.40 York -  SInjari 4/1, Maydanny/Sinjarri Rfc 20/1

Was trying to hard to find something to beat Maydanny, but even an 11lb rise might not stop this tank. Assume if MJ thought had blown mark would have put him in a pattern race. Given Dark JEdi franked the form of Sinjarri may as well keep to the Haggas theme. Bit lame this bet but hey ho

5.10 York - Samper Seven 6/1, Illusionist 25/1ew

Samper Svern has best jockey and won well over C&D. At a bigger price Illsionist was a very good 2 yr old and ran well in couple decent handicaps. Edged down the weights and could pop up at t biggie
