Wednesday's Selections - 21 September

Yet more dreadfully sad news on Tuesday with Michael Jarvis passing away just a day after Ginger McCain.  He only retired in February this year (ill health) but must have been content to see that Roger Varian took over the training of his string at Kremlin House so seamlessly and successfully (he taught him well!)


Despite her optimism, Hayley Turner will be out of action with her poorly ankle for the rest of the season now.  Apparently, she is busying herself by converting her spare bedroom into an office


Wednesday's system selections are:


Two winners today and profits of + 5.45


Let's hope the horse doesn't plant itself. 
Well apparently it did - a Non Runner!

Goodwood
15:10  Silenzio (3.95) 1st
15:45  Debussy (3) UP

Kempton
20:20  Eclipseoftheheart (4.5) 1st
20:50  Scarborough Lily (5) NR




Redcar 15:25 Subscribe to Racing UK Handicap 6f, Class 6 (3yo+)


This race is all about the penalised Darcey but even with Daryl Byrne’s 5lb claim, I would suggest that the additional 15lb she carries today combined with the jockeys relative inexperience will be too much to overcome. 
The low draw is a definite advantage here at this distance – 22 of the past 38 winners (57.89%) have been drawn low so this would discourage me from backing Belinsky or Memphis Man who I would otherwise be very interested in.
That would leave Song Of Parkes whose penultimate run resulted in a win – same C&D, going, jockey and weight. The runner up that day has gone on to win and frank the form so I see no reason she can’t put in a repeat performance today.
Song Of Parkes  13/2 each way 1st 


This is Workforce galloping at Sandown yesterday with Ryan Moore aboard:


Ryan is on course to ride Workforce in the Arc on the 02 October - a faster recovery than at first thought (if it happens!).  I wouldn't be happy if I were Kieren Fallon (no more spare rides) and I think I might be a little bit uneasy if I was Khalid Abdullah........!




And aren't we high brow today! Music by Debussy (Reverie) together with poetry and horses!


 133                      117                    117 
SDS had a treble today while the other two struck out.  This means although he has the same number of winners as Fallon, he is ahead by virtue of having more places


        56                        52                     25
