ROUGE SET TO RULE
PETERBOROUGH raider ROMANYROUGE(10.05) can land the £15,000 final of the British Bred Produce Stakes tonight at Swindon.
Not much separates the six youngsters on display so the draw looks crucial.
My selection goes from trap six which should give this strong finisher plenty of room from which to operate.
Two TV Trophy Trial Stakes frame the night at Towcester.
ALMA PRINCE (7.43) has an exceptional opportunity to establish his credentials.
The November 2012 son of Head Bound was a cracking second to top-class stayer Millwards Teddy at Nottingham on Tuesday and this 906m contest looks there for the taking.
BLACK ADDER (9.49) plies his graded trade at a lowly level at Henlow, but judging by a 750m trial at Romford, he looks one to follow over extreme distances.
Elsewhere at the Northamptonshire venue, the Mark Wallistrained BALLYMAC SINBAD (6.56) looks well placed and MAGICAL DOUGIE (8.14) only has to hit the lids in best style to make all.
AAYAMZAMODEL (8.31) delivered with aplomb in midweek and if in the same mood, is sure to take all the stopping. The inform BAREFOOT APOLLO (9.02) has won three out of his last four starts and is nicely drawn in trap one.
Crayford stage the final of their Summer Trophy on their RPTV card. The 540m contest is best left to ROXHOLME TED (8.34)‚ trained by Hayley Keightley.
The wide runner enjoyed the twists and turns of the Kent track when making all in the heats in a useful 34.08 sec. A perfect trap six draw provides the platform for our choice to attack from the off.
The strong-running Woodmancote Bert makes significant forecast appeal from an inside draw. The smart ALITTLELESSLIP (7.16) should have no difficulty in following-up last Saturday’s easy course and distance win and is the best bet at Wimbledon.
