This is one of the four options I have selected for my full members today.

Southwell 4.50 – STANDPOINT 7/2 Win Bet

I think he is the fittest horse in the race and should take
this race but he does have to get the trip here and I was
a bit annoyed that he was trimmed from 9/2 to 7/2 as he
looked an each way bet to me. I will now go win only as
the price has shortened but I liked his chance in this.

This is a 12f handicap for 0-75 rated horses. In the last
10 days STANDPOINT has twice finished 3rd in decent
handicaps and with a 3 day break looks in form and the
fittest horse in the race. I thought there were several of
weak profiles against him. DAZZLING VALENTINE and
ELIZABETH COFFEE are fillies with hard absences to
overcome. CARTER is a bit short of runs this season.
WEST END LAD is wrong as a 9yo from an 8f race. I
dont want JACK DAWKINS with his absence. Horses
well beaten over 14 last time like ENGLISH SUMMER
struggled and only 4 year olds overcame that in similar
races. SIR BOSS and BOA are older types with poor
last runs behind them. I have to shortlist 4 horses.

* TOUGHNESS DANON – Possible on his last run
* DE RIGUEUR is a neutral profile and hard to read.
* BADEA – Has enough to shortlist
* STANDPOINT must have a strong chance
