Best Bets: Friday 9 October

CUSHIE SOUL (Trap 3) - 19:07 Central Park

CUSHIE SOUL has been the model of consistency in recent months and can add a fourth A1 to his tally. He was unable to reel in our fancy Rolex Mick last week but kept on well and faces nothing of that one's ability tonight. Back in the three jacket he can resume winning ways.

BREAKMYSTRIDE (Trap 6) - 20:03 Central Park

Hopefully nothing should slow down BREAKMYSTRIDE in this sprint. The lightly-raced bitch already has three wins in the bag since July and might have landed the odds last week but for being forced wide at the second bend. With better fortune she can get her head in front again tonight.

SPOT ON DOCK (Trap 1) - 20:43 Central Park 

SPOT ON DOCK looks the class act in this contest. A multiple A1-winner at Poole before the shutdown, he's settled in nicely at Kent, impressing in trials and going down narrowly in his two races, including when getting little luck back over the four bends last week. He's easily up to taking this and looks one of the bankers on the card.
