Not a good day yesterday with Shumoos finishing third and Memory refusing to race again, sitting down in the stalls and only agreeing to come out when the race was as good as over; she can never be trusted again. Down to business today.
Up at York we have the John Smith's City Walls Stakes a Listed sprint at 2.05. It will be fast and furious stuff and I like the look of the Tim Easterby trained Hamish McGonagall. The tough little sprinter loves it round here and is taken to just prevail, I will be taking the 4-1 early.
Back at Newmarket for day Three of the Festival the Bunbury Cup looks as tricky as ever but I am sticking with a horse I backed at the Royal meeting in the shape of Dandy Nicholls trained Docofthebay. The booking of Olivier Peslier catches the eye and the gelding should run into a place at least so I shall be taking a bit of the 14-1 each-way early.
I backed Delegator ante-post for the Golden Jubilee Stakes which the Godolphin colt missed due to the slow conditions. Todays going should be much more to his liking and the five-year-old should take the world of beating in the Group One July Stakes and I have taken the 4-1 early. The Aussie Star Witness is an obvious danger.
Be lucky
