Nick Shiambouros had two non runners yesterday. Nick returns with two decent priced selections from the Tuesday meeting at Parx...
"She had previously won a decent allowance by a wide margin which reads well in the context of this race"
Back Portal Creek Race 10 at BSP in the 21:58 at Parx
Fire on a Mission
Race 8 21:04 Parx - Fire Mission
Fire Mission should run well at a fair price in this interesting allowance race on the main track.
This veteran campaigner finished a close second against similar over this course last month. He put in a strong run inside the final furlong but could not get by the game winner. The extra yardage will suit this consistent gelding and am expecting a big effort. He has a decent closing kick, and will benefit from the expected fast pace. He ticks a lot of boxes and recommend backing him at BSP.
Portal Creek to bounce back
Race 10 21:58 Parx - Portal Creek
Portal Creek is taken to bounce back after a disappointing effort on his latest start.
This filly finished a distant third against similar last month. She had a chance at the entrance to the straight but found little and was easily brushed aside. She had previously won a decent allowance by a wide margin which reads well in the context of this race. Trainer Juan Guerrero has a 25% strike rate with beaten favourites, and I am going to excuse her last race as I believe something was amiss. She should be a decent price so recommend backing her at BSP.
