5 suggested picks for Southwell today

Whisky Bravo and Art Dzeko add above average class to the line-up in Southwell’s 12:30 but I fear the trip of 7f will not play to their strengths in the same way as it will for the unadventurous selection of BEACHWOOD BAY. Dependant on how the class horses in the race fair will have a bearing on whether All Right Now can land a place at a price which suggest it may be being generally ignored.

Hail Shower looks the pick of the debutants in the 1:00 while Imaginary World and EMPERATRIZ offer the best C&D form. EMPERATRIZ has been beaten by narrow margins on two attempts over C&D and on both occasions by horses with a 70 OR. With only the two unknown quantities of Hail Shower and Absent Amy with OR’s that high, this may be the ideal opportunity for EMPERATRIZ to make it third time lucky.

The 1:30 is a stab in the dark with little form recorded of any note. Razin’ Hell has disappointed since putting up a reasonable effort. DANDYS PERIER looks to be heading in the right direction but has a little more to do than when winning on its penultimate run over C&D. Genax looks the pick of the debutants.

Although not a betting race for me I will be hoping that LA ESTRELLA can continue its impeccable record here at Southwell in the 2:00. With 13 wins from 15 runs at the course, this trip has seen a 100% 3 out of 3.

With the standard of Southwell form on offer being so poor in the 3:00 it is hard to imagine that one of the Southwell debutants Busy Bimbo, Ishisoba or QUEEN’S PRINCESS are not capable of performing better than those with form on the surface. Surprisingly the sire stats point to rank outsider QUEENS PRINCESS at 33-1.

Enjoy your day J
