The Which Doctor 3.15 Sandown on Saturday

This is a horse I've been looking to back since I watched the recording of his last race at Haydock. He finished 4L behind Libel Law on that occasion, but for me he was given anything but a hard race. Ridden from virtually last he was never at any moment put into the race properly, imo, and made up ground in a very pleasing manner under hands and heels.

It wasn't until I looked at his entries that I come to the conclusion that he is being laid out for the Cambridgeshire. He's also been entered in the John Smiths Cup at Newbury in September and off a mark of 87 if he was to win tomorrow he'd probably have a 7lb penalty for both races, something which is he should be able to cope with. One also has to think that he might have to win tomorrow to stand a chance of getting into the Cambridgeshire.

Getting back to tomorrow's race, he's well drawn (13 of 17) and has the talented Hayley Turner onboard. For me the stiffer finish at Sandown should play to his strengths and one can see him coming late and fast to land the spoils. With 17 runners he rates a great e/w bet at the current 12-1 available @ Bet 365. He'll definitely trade shorter than the 14s on Betfair. So all in all he rates a cracking bet!

Absolutely mullered every time she went for a run! Do not lose faith! This will win a big handicap before the end of the season - get urself a Cambridgeshire price.
