Racing - Ludlow - 8th Jan

Ludlow 2:30
Harringay 3/1
Dearson 4/1
Principe Azzurro 4/1
From Dawn to Dusk 9/1
New Entic 9/1
Wiscalitus 9/1
Waterloo Son 16/1

I really like the shape of this race. Harringay is a much hyped horse with only half-decent form to show for it, and Henrietta Knight's yard is very quiet. Dearson wouldn't be one of Evan Williams's stars (and stable also quiet) and Corals are longest priced about him. From Dawn to Dusk looks to be regressing, and New Entic is one to avoid. Wiscalitus is so so and Waterloo Son looks a Daly fiddler. Principe Azzurro stands out as solid. Slow though, and 2m4f will help, and if the rains come, so will they.

I'm going to play in both the horse fund and in the five star fund. I've been guilty of sitting on the 5 star fund. I seem to have a betting-button version of Eric Bristow's inability to let go of the dart! That said, the 5 star fund is really about short-priced events and it's the place element I'm really after there.


Principe Azzurro 8pts win at 7/1

Principe Azzurro 2.5% place at around 6/4 and 2.5% win at 7/1
