Wednesday 17th May

York 1.50 Real Dream 1/2 pt ew @ 5’1 firms offering 5 places – 5lb rise may underestimate his Kempton win and he may still be capable of better

Newton Abbot 2.05 Inferno Sacree 1/2 pt ew @ 5’1 – Front-running tactics have seen him win four of last five; up another 9lb; but could be very hard to catch

York 2.25 Dakota Gold 1/2 pt ew @ 8’1 firms offering 6 places – Won this last year off 6lb lower; promising reappearance; yard in better form now & has been blessed with another good post draw this year

York 3.00 Creative Force 1pt win @ 3’1 – Comfortable win at Haydock on Saturday; smart performer who is going to be hard to catch if allowed to stride on once again

York 3.35 Infinite Cosmos 1pt win @ 7’4 – Short-headed by Sea Of Roses on debut; 8-11 ( good strong form ) , no fuss going one better 12 days ago and is likely to be a graded performer in the making

York 4.10 Chuzzlewit 3/4 pt ew @ 13’2 firms offering 4 places (NAP) – Listed fifth latest; not obviously well treated, but highly regarded and in my view is a graded performer in a handicap
