Adam Deadman picks the four best Wimbledon bets...
NAP 20.30 - Melodys Pat
Melodys Pat was breahtaking last week and if turning up in similar form tonight ought to land this race. The three main players in terms of the early lead are him, Tyrur Hestor and Kryptonite but the selection tonight is the stronger of the three whilst the others have questions to answer. Melodys Pat strode out nicely last week when defeating the recent Easter Cup winner Droopys Noel and he can land his heat tonight. Tyrur Hestor was a bit disappointing last week and is overlooked whilst Kryptonite perhaps doesnt quite stay the Derby trip. Lenson Express is a lovely sort and will take advantage of any short comings the selection may have but his tendency to dive for the rails simply makes the selection better drawn. Toosey Blue isn't firing at present whilst Mistley Colonel looks held on recent form.
NB - 21.15 - Head Iton Ellis
Head Iton Ellis was an eye catcher ind efeat last week. A slow start didn't help but he matched classy sort Lenson Express down the back for middle pace and was staying on stronger. Granted a slicker exit he will prove very hard to keep away from the frame. Bandicoot Tipoki missed the break last week but started to show nice pace into the bend before getting crowding and then ran well down the far side but didn't appear to stay, although he is entitled to come on for that run. Clearly the main danger to my selection but Head Iton Ellis is a confident selection. Bubbly Meastro has changed name and ownership this week and has a plum draw next to slow starting Westmead Ace but any short comings in the stamina department will be found out.
Value Bet 20.46 - Greenfield Post
There is just a suspicion that Greenfield Post could run a big race here tonight. He has recently clocked 27.62 for the 460 metre trip and gets stronger. Last week he was asleep in the boxes but a quicker break can see him take full advantage of the vacant trap to his inside and whilst the favourite, Cash Dream, who was the bet of the night on Saturdays card, is very much respected as perhaps the quickest animal in the race, the draw outside Lenson Smoothie is fraught with danger. The latter has good early pace and favoured a middle course on the run up last week. Side Bet was impressive last week when winning well.
Get It Beat! 21.45 - Boherna Best
Boherna Best had a torrid time of last week. Drawn in trap 6 wasn't really the problem, it was having Wise Thought drawn in trap 3 who caused all sorts of carnage! However, once reaching the second bend I was a little concerned that the middle pace department was lacking as he was matched yard for yard by Tasty Rambler, a grader at Wimbledon and a 25/1 shot on the night. He is definitely leadable and the way Farloe Reason trapped at the weekend, he is my idea of the winner. Farloe Reason also has winning recent form over the "bismark" and for these purposes I would quite happily lay to [2.74].

She should win tonight Tuesday 27th if fit then. Only put into an A3, she is much better than that. Here's hoping for you Dave.
David Bedford | 28 May 2008
She ran abit flat but im sure she can win in an A4 soon enough. she always starts slow she has to learn to race again... in 2 weeks shell be at 15 weeks out of season and the 15/16 weeks is when she came right last time. get on her when she goes into A4 at 16 weeks :)

first night at wimbledon dogs on tuesday, thanks for the imeldas princess nap! You would've probably made a profit backing peacock's dogs blind....
