A cracking days racing in store this Saturday, and there is no shortage of quality horses on show. Ayr sees the running of the Ayr Gold Cup, and there are pattern races at Newbury. Below are my selections for a superb Saturday of racing.
Ayr Gold Cup
Jack Dexter is a horse that readers of the blog will be familiar with, and today he has a crack at the Ayr Gold Cup, a race haS has been 'trained for' according to his trainer Jim Goldie. He went very close a coulple of times earlier this year and is unlucky not to have won a race yet this season.
His last three efforts can be written off as they were on unsuitably fast ground. It has resulted in his mark dropping by a pound though and that could prove crucial today. There is a bit of juice in the ground, which this fella loves, and Mr Goldie wouldn't complain if the heavens were to open before 3.45. His jockey will have options from his draw in stall 13, and he will be produced late. With a bit of luck he should be right there at the finish.
