Bets Of The Day: Solar Heights to shine

Solar to soar

15:10 Wolverhampton - Solar Heights

Solar Heights is taken to upset the short priced favourite in this interesting maiden.

This well related filly caught the eye on debut when finishing sixth to Invitational at Kempton earlier this month. She got the hang of things inside the final furlong, and finished the race with good energy. She looks like the big improver in the race, and the extra yardage should suit her down to the ground. At present she is trading at 4.47/2 on the exchange.

Wings Of Time heads the market at 2.186/5 on the exchange. He ran down the field behind Skardu in a maiden at HQ last September, and has since been gelded. Improvement is expected, but his price is a little thin to say the least.

Take the Friendly advice

15:55 Lingfield - Turquoise Friendly

Turquoise Friendly is my idea of the winner of this novice stakes.

This Holly Roman Emperor colt finished seventh to James Street at Kempton last month. He held every chance two furlong from home, but appeared to run out of petrol and finished well beaten. I think he will be a different proposition over today's minimum trip, and represents value at 5.49/2 on the exchange.

Key To Power is the short priced favourite at 1.865/6 on the exchange. She has been off the course since finishing second to Queen Of Bermuda on debut last May. She looks like the horse to beat on the book, but her long absence is a concern. I have no interest in backing her at this price.
