14:05 York - Fine Details Car Valeting Sprint Handicap 5½f
There’s plenty of pace on for this sprint handicap and the majority of it is towards those drawn low, with York regular Copper Knight, Vingegaard and Curious Rover all potential front-runners from stalls 1, 4 and 5 and that means Havana Rum, drawn 7, is going to get a nice lead into this and after a good effort over six furlongs at Pontefract last time out, he looks about ready to strike.
In fairness, he’s been in fair form for much of the summer, hitting the frame three times and far from disgraced behind Stratusnine here in July, possibly finding 0-105 company a bit too hot, but not beaten that far all the same; he goes on pretty much any ground, has fallen back to his last winning mark, and should go close here, for all the market indicates as such.
We were with PARISIAC when he was a non-runner at Haydock the other day on heavy ground; that was the third time this year he’s been taken out because of unsuitable ground, with the first two occasions coming on good and good to firm! We thought very soft would suit him, but in truth he does have an excellent record when the ground is good to soft, presumably what connections have been waiting for. His record in the last two years on ground that has been described as good to soft or soft is 841 31321228, improving to 413122122 in Class 4 and 5 handicaps.
14:40 York - Hanson Springs Stayers Handicap 2m½f
MARBUZET barely knows how to run a bad race at York, placed three times from five starts here and not beaten far in the other pair either. After three poor efforts this season he bounced right back to form on heavy ground at Beverley last week, winning narrowly, and for all that was on deep ground he’s just as happy on good or good to soft, so conditions won’t be an issue.
He’s on the same mark as Beverley today, with no penalty to carry as that was an apprentice race, and he has won again after being turned around within ten days. We saw another Easterby stayer in Zimmerman follow up quickly at Haydock last week and Marbuzet is capable of doing the same.
Also worth considering is last year’s winner ROCK N ROLL PINKIE who has been dropped to a mark 3lb lower after a couple of poor runs. In truth, she’s run well enough this season until running a rare stinker here in July and that run needs forgiving, but she was unsuited by the way the race was run at Kempton last time, won twice here last year, and was even tried at Group 3 level here earlier this summer. Ivan Furtado has had an up-and-down season but had a welcome winner the other day and Silvestre de Sousa is riding out of his skin at the moment.
