Ayr - 17th Sept

Not an especially exciting day's racing today but as I'm at work and it's quiet I couldn't resist looking at the big sprint handicaps at the Scottish track and I might have found a sneaky one at a big price. The Richard Fahey trained 3yo El Viento is too big at 50s for the Silver Cup. He won nicely enough over the trip at Ripon in July before a couple of runs over 7f and although this was an average event with only seven runners it does show he's an animal with a certain amount of scope over the trip and you never know, a rampant twenty odd runner cavalry charge may be right up his street. At a huge price I'll take that punt.

El Viento £15ew @ 50/1 (lost)


(-290.5)
