Friday Double...

Leicester 14:20 – Down’s Folly
2m 4f, Class 4 Beginners’ Chase – Good

Nikola attempts to lose an unwanted bridesmaid tag at the 7th time of asking today however the Analyst is again looking to spoil the party as he is backing Down’s Folly to catch the bouquet!! A decent 4th last time out behind the tough Comber down in class today puts Henry Daly’s Charge in with a huge shout down in class.
2nd 7/2

The offical distance was a neck... however I reckon this one for the new school and could quite easily have been called a nose! Guttsy performance by both Down's Folly & Nikola, however it was the latter that just prevailed in a thrilling finish.

Sandown 14:40 – Newton Bridge
2m 4f, Class 3 Handicap Chase – Good

George Elliot’s Newton Bridge is still un-exposed over fences and looks reasonably treated to add to his 4 victories so far this year. 2m 4f on decent ground is ideal after being found out over too short a trip last time. Timmy Murphy gets the leg up on his only ride of the day.
2nd 13/8f

Our selection Newton Bridge was backed off the boards before the off having opened a tempting 15/8. However it was the Captain J. Snowden who stole the show aboard Mighty Matters on Forces Day at Sandown.
