Saturday Double...

Newbury 15:25 - Castlecrossings E/W
2m 5f, Class 1 Mares Novices' Handicap Hurdle - Soft

The Jonjo O'Neill trained Castlecrossings is a tough, improving mare that will relish todays testing conditions. Longer trip and softer conditions look ideal, and she will take all the beating today under the talanted Champion Jock, whose hungry for more success.
2ND 4/1

An almost perfic ride by the champ, nearly landed the Analyst with a timely boost, however the the Impressive Jaunty Flight produced a gutsy performance under top weight. The front two pulled 12l's clear of the 3rd and if our selection didn't hang right under pressure we may have got even closer to Oliver Sherwoods tough Mare.


Nad Al Sheba 15:55 - Floral Pegasus E/W
1m 1f, Class 1 Dubai Duty Free (Group 1)

The Hong Kong trained Floral Pegasus, has been mega consistent this season and is sure to run his race. Close up to Darjina in December, Cruz's gelding looks a great E/W bet and is well drawn and likely to race right up with the pace.
UP 14/1

Having raced keenly throughout our selection actually did well to rally again and finish a close up 7th under the harding working Gerard Mosse. The French trained filly Darjina, (mentioned above) at least hel up the previous form by finishing a strong 2nd @ 5/1.
