Once again a lot of rain has fallen at the racetracks.  Backing anything at Haydock that has not shown form with the word ‘soft’ in the going is a must.  It will be very tiring heavy ground.  A few short odds favourites in the 2.20 and 3.50, both probably will handle the conditions, but I am watching them !  I thought Global Gift 4.20 had a good chance, he stayed on well to win at Carlisle on soft ground.  Only 4 line up as Wiretap is a non runner, Zip will handle the ground, a good second at the track 4 days ago, that was over 7f, todays 8f could stretch his stamina a bit.  Moon King 4.50 keeps winning, he is improving fast, and could well defy a 6lb penalty for his cosy win last time, that was 7 days ago.  A couple of horses of interest at Kempton this evening, at least the form is a bit more consistent, when any rainfall does not make a big difference compared to the grass.

More later.
