A close call for Alan Dudman yesterday with two winners out of three. His Tuesday double comes from Warwick and Newcastle...
"The stiffer track today should suit as she shapes like a stayer. Judged on her Carlisle bumper success, her mark looks a good one."
It all points to Java
13:50 Warwick - Back Java Point
Two out of three yesterday and Episode drifted out to a nice winning price, unfortunately Drakes Well let down the treble behind a BSP winner of 170!
Kim Bailey drops Java Point back into a Maiden Hurdle and his experience allied with the stiffer test make him the one to beat.
He returned after a break last time to run well at Newbury over 2m from a steady gallop. Those two factors were against him but he rattled home in the end.
Once upon a time he was fourth to Chantry House and a longer distance today should see him in a better light.
Kitty looks a purr-fect bet
15:45 Newcastle - Back Kitty Hall
We had a couple of Nicky Richards' winners last week and I am hoping we can strike gold with the trainer again at Newcastle with Kitty Hall. She can be backed at 2/1.
Her jumping let her down at Catterick last time in a novice and she spurned a chance to win by hitting the last, if she can brush up on her jumping, she can challenge her market rival Burrows Diamond.
The stiffer track today should suit as she shapes like a stayer. Judged on her Carlisle bumper success, her mark looks a good one.
