Inglis Drever is one to watch, Theatre Girl can provide the drama at Doncaster
In recent years the best staying hurdler around has been Inglis Drever. He will be running today in the 3.50 at Cheltenham and although he was beaten in this race last year by Blazing Bailey, he is racing off level weights today.
He should trade bigger in-running because of his tendency to hit a couple of flat spots during the race, which has been his trademark for years and I will be backing him for the win.
At Doncaster in the 1.55 I think Theatre Girl is worth an interest in this mares-only race.
Henderson is mob handed in this valuable event with two solid entries but I will be backing the King inmate for the win after a decent second last time out. She is quite short on the exchange, currently trading at [3.55].
Over at Lingfield in the 4pm, Aphrodisia looks to have found a winning opportunity in this maiden.This daughter of Sakhee could well be heavily backed in this event and is currently available at [3.5] on the exchange. I will be backing her early and I may back her again at post time.
