A good winner yesterday, Melangerie obliging, backed at 6/4 she was well supported into 6/5 and won quite well in the end, another decent ride by James Bowen. Two short odds selections today, but I think both look good things.

Todays Free tips are as follows:

Horse: Summer Thunder

Time: 12.55 Lingfield

Current Odds: 8/11

If looking for a good thing, although this horse is very short, she should win without breaking too much sweat.  She ran a good second last time, when she did make up a lot of ground to come and look like winning, I think her effort to get to the leaders was a good one, only horses like her with limited ability,  cannot sustain making up too much ground and win, if ridden a bit closer to the leaders, she will win. Of rivals, hard to make a strong case for a threat, a pretty ordinary bunch as I see it.

Horse: Native Appeal

Time: 3.40 Lingfield

Current Odds: 4/7

I suggest putting this one in a double with my earlier selection, it works out at around 7/4 and this horse will be very difficult to beat.  I backed him last time, when beaten by a useful horse, this is  a weaker race.  Of rivals, Shakour has ability but I can’t see him beating my selection, Cross Swords is the unknown, he could well be ok although is quite friendless in the betting.
