Nick's daily selection is running at Salisbury today and is carrying his hard currency as usual. But is it foreign currency this time?

At Salisbury today in the 3.35 Swiss Franc is an interesting runner in this Listed event. The selection has a solid profile entering this race and boasts some very smart two year old form. Last time out at Haydock he ran on well behind Fat Boy finishing a decent third in a good race. He was in need of the run that day and should show improved form in this race. At present he is trading at [5.0] on the exchange which appears reasonable.

At Leicester tonight in the 7.15 Predict looks to have found a good opportunity to win this maiden. First time out this filly by Oasis Dream put up a very good effort finishing second to Skruton at Lingfield in May. The selection was quite well backed that day and will benefit from the experience. She is currently trading at around [3.0] on the exchange which seems reasonable.

Today's Selections: Leicester 7.15 Predict Win

At Sandown in the opening race at 2.10 Red Rossini could go well at a price in this maiden.

On debut this colt by Rossini ran a fair race to be second to impressive winner Klynch at Kempton.Today he faces a very short priced favourite in Kingship Spirit and is currently trading at [7.6] on the exchange.

Today's Selections:

Sandown 2.10 Red Rossini Win and Place

In the opening race at Newbury, La Troupe should go well in what is a nice maiden at 1.40.

This daughter of King's Best showed a lot of promise on debut behind the very smart Infallible. I was on course that day and she impressed me in the parade ring and on the racecourse. Last time out at Goodwood she clearly did not handle the ground in my view or the undulating track and she will appreciate the ground and the course today.

Today's Selections:

Newbury 1.40 La Troupe Win and Place

This lightly raced son of Johannesburg drops in grade today and has some good form in the book notably when fifth to Davenport in early May.At present the selection is trading at 2.08 which appears reasonable given the class drop.

Brighton 3pm African Pursuits Win

This son of Grand Slam was a decent fourth to a fair sort in Listed company last year and a reproduction of anything like that level of form would be enough to take this.This year he has been slightly disappointing but this is an easier race than his last assignment.

Today's Selections:

Salisbury 3.45 Strategic Mover Win

Folkestone 4.15 Pediment Win
