Best Bets: Wednesday 6 March

Springwell Bambi (Trap 1) 19:26 Sunderland

At Sunderland we are very keen on the chances of T1 Springwell Bambi in the second A1 contest of the evening at 19.26. The selection is the eldest of these but has a clear class edge and has been given a chance by the grader after running well in some much tougher top-grade contests. Indeed, this is the easiest opportunity she has been given in several months and it will be disappointing if she can’t advantage. 

Tullymurry Vroom (Trap 4) - 19:36 Peterborough

Over at Peterborough, there is much to like about the chances of T4 Tullymurry Vroom in the 19.36. Sharon Saberton’s youngster has finished second on three of her last four starts, beaten only half a length last time on her first run in A9 grade since making a winning debut back in December. That was quite a strong race for the grade whereas this isn’t, so it’s not difficult to see her holding on to the lead all the way this time.

Drumcrow Izzy (Trap 2) - 20.44 Sunderland

Back at Sunderland, Drumcrow Izzy was one of our Smart Play selections last Wednesday and the reasons behind his selection then hold good again tonight in the 20.44. Karolyn Blackbird’s dog (in T2) lost out only by a short head extending a run of solid placed efforts in this grade, but there is no doubting his honesty and assuming he gets a clearer run than last time, he can reverse placings with T5 Ciaras Jet who edged him out last time.
