GYTO Wednesday Notebook Tips

I’m going to take a chance on ONLY MONEY turning over the short priced favourite Dreamsundermyfeet at Leicester on Wednesday. He remains lightly raced especially over fences and he created a big impression winning so easily at Huntingdon back in May last year. He never managed to land a blow on return at Plumpton and didn’t jump well enough to be a factor. He was back to form at Newbury last month but still did too much in the early stages. If Tom Cannon can get him to conserve energy a bit better early on in the race then I don’t think they’ll be able to live with him late. The handicapper has given him a bit more help dropping him a further 2lb and I think he is a danger to all here. Dreamsundermyfeet has already won twice over fences so has to be the main danger.

This looks a good opportunity for No Nay Never colt NEW SHEPARD to strike again while the iron is hot. He ran a cracker on handicap debut back from a 105-day absence when denied just a neck over a mile here and duly improved on that to win readily over the same track and trip last month. He looks a horse on the upgrade now and doesn’t lack speed so I don’t think the drop back a furlong in trip will inconvenience him too much. He is up 8lb but almost certainly has more to come and as long as there are no hard luck stories in the run I can’t see how he doesn’t go close. The obvious threat is Sydney Street for Hugo Palmer. He clocked a career best winning over C&D last month and if handling a 7lb rise is likely the one the selection will have to peg back in the closing stages.
