🐎 Today’s Daily Trio selections

Aiden O’Brien has a 45% strike rate at Navan this year and Saratoga (5:30) looks by far the best of his battalion today. This 1m2f maiden looks a perfect next step for this Camelot colt and the horse will be carrying the weight of my money as well as Wayne Lordan.

A Wolverhampton class 5 maiden at 6:12 is unlikely to be the focus of people’s attention but I’m convinced I have found a good thing. Dancingintherain is only third in the betting behind favourite Census and second fav Sky Advocate, but gets a 5lb allowance from Census (he would do from Sky Advocate also but the jockey claims 5lb). Saeed Bin Suroor’s horse keeps to maiden company after three similar runs in a bid to land one of these races, and I can’t see why it’s not favourite. Sky Advocate has had NINE chances to win now and Census needs to learn plenty from his debut when running green in third place. Dancingintherain has the opportunity to make all and keep things simple.

John Hanlon sends Mother Ship over the Irish Sea to take in the 6:25 at Stratford. Mother Ship is a maiden, but the form compares well against today’s opposition in this low grade handicap hurdle, especially with Paddy Hanlon’s 5lb claim. This is a race that has cut up massively with five non runners announced overnight and Shark Hanlon can keep up his ~33% strike rate at this venue.

Daily Trio selections: Saratoga – 5:30 Navan, Dancingintherain – 6:12 Wolverhampton, Mother Ship – 6:25 Stratford.
