April Fool's Double...

Wetherby 14:40 - Compromiznotension
2m, Class 4 Novices' Hurdle - Soft, Good to Soft In Places

Unlucky not to win last time out this brown gelding ploughed through the last to give away his advantage, only to rally back and go down by a neck. With some useful form on offer with the likes of Marsam and Halla San, The Analyst expects Howard Johnson's charge to figure highly in today's race.
2ND 6/4

Sent into the lead from the start it was clear that Denis O'Regan wanted to stretch his rivals and see what they had got. However rounding the paddock turn the selection veered violently right and the jockey did well to keep him in the race. Compromiznotension soon got back to take control, however as they quickened down the home straight he just didn't find that extra gear and was left in a staying on again 2nd.


Southwell 16:45 - Benandonner
1m, Class 2 Handicap - Standard

It's not often that you'll find The Analyst taking a trip to the sand however with quite an attractive looking class 2 race on offer, why not! The selection ran a creditable 2ND in the Spring Mile at Doncaster behind the Peter Chapple-Hyam trained 'Don't Panic' who absolutely hacked up and looks and animal to follow! With good form on the all weather in the past and looking favourably treated at the weights today have a go at the son of Giant's Causeway.
WON 6/4

Galvanised to the front Benandonner was never to see another rival! Travelling sweetly throughout he was momentarily taken on by the Dandy Nichols runner up, but held on well at the line to score by a tidy neck.
