In an open looking mares race I like the look of COULD BE TROUBLE who seemed to bounce back to form last time out here at Ludlow. It was an encouraging run after wind surgery and she shaped like the step up in trip would really suit. With heavy showers forecast the ground could be on the soft side by the time this kicks off and I’m not sure how many of her rivals will appreciate that whereas she should be fine after her heavy ground point win. She looks the value bet here.
I was astounded to see the handicapper dropped PICANHA by so much after a below par display at Cheltenham last time out. His earlier form suggests he should be a lot better than a mark of 122 and with his rider’s claim taken into consideration he officially runs off 119 here today. Any rain would aid his cause and he rates a solid bet today.
Ludlow 2.30 – Could Be Trouble
Ludlow 3.30 – Picanha
