15:00 - Best EW GREYEMKAY 7/1 = PLACED (2nd)
This gelding has been in good form of late particulary over the course & distance when finishing 3rd & 1st respectively in 2 of his last 3 outings. 3 runs back winning here off only 2lb less in the handicap under the same conditions as today & under the same 7lb claiming jockey, Similarly last time out ran a good 3rd off today's mark under the same jockey, so if bringing this form forward today, reaching the frame looks likely, worth the EW money at this price.
16:40 - WHITE MONTH Win 4/1 = LOST (2nd)
Owned by Her Majesty The Queen this gelding has shown some good form recently, placing on his last 3 starts. Twice in class 5 handicaps over today's trip off similar marks & last time out in a maiden. Although these three promising runs came on the AW if capable of transferring this form to the turf today then he wouldn't need much more to get involved although upped to a class 4, doesn't look the strongest of fields & the mount of 7lb claimer Oisin Murphy looks to sweeten this one a little more. Hopefully Her Majesty has a winner with this one today & i think a small punt on the nose is viable.
Shows some steady form figures having placed on 3 of his last starts & only finishing 1 place outside the placings on the other two. 2lb lower in the OR than last time out when finishing 4/10 over today's trip & is also ridden by 7lb claimer today, if putting forward similar form that he has shown of late & the claiming jockey has the desired effect MUFTARRES could ultimately go close & is worth EW Money.

17:35 - BEST EW MUFTARRES 7/1 = WON (1/8)

18:25 - BEST EW BENSOON 11/1 = LOST (missed break from stalls!)
Admittedly this looks a tight event, where a case could be made for a few. However BENSOON looks a little overpriced when looking at his form. Has run over some different trips this season, but has shown best form over today's trip of 12f. Ran a decent 3rd last time out off today's mark & ridden by 3lb claimer today so if putting that sort of run forward it may not take much more to hit the place money & therefore i think is worth the EW money at a nice looking price.
19:25 - BEST EW CASTLE GUEST 6/1 = WON
Again here it would be easy to make a case for a number of these but in my mind at this price castle guest looks to have probably the most solid profile as far as EW money is concerned. Was a decent winner last time out having made all at leopardstown over 10f. Upped 5lb in the rating for that win but dropping back to 9f today looks as if it would suit & he goes off the lowest weight in the race today.have to admit taking a chance here as i tend to usually stay away from horses that go off a career high mark but he looked good last time out & i personally think 9f would have seen him win easier last time so that should suit. Similar run as last time out could see this gelding hit the frame.
Beverley -
15:45 - Best EW WILD SAUCE 9/1 = PLACED (3rd)
This filly has shown some encouraging form of late when finishing 2nd & 3rd on her last two runs over today's trip of 5f. Particularly since last time out came in a class 4 & today's race class 5. Looks to be on a competitive mark & is well drawn here to pose a threat, ridden by useful 5lb claimer Joshua Newman this filly looks be of pretty solid EW value at odds that i can't help think may just be a tad overpriced.
16:20 - Best EW SAINT THOMAS 7/1 = LOST (4th)
Shows impressive form figures in recent runs, winning once & placing in 4 of his last 6 runs. Seems to like it around here (beverley) As 4 of those runs have come here including the win. Was slightly disappointing last time when backed into shortish favourite. Looks better off in the weights today (one of the lowest) & goes on same mark as last 3 runs one of which when finishing very close second here. The experience Graham Gibbons takes the ride today & this gelding should run another decent race once more & is worth the EW money.
Salisbury -
15:55 - HIPPY HIPPY SHAKE Win 4/1 = LOST (2nd)
Although having to shoulder top weight here it is seemingly hard to get away from HIPPY HIPPY SHAKE, who was a good winner last time out when going over today's trip for the first time, Only 3lb higher for that win & shouldn't need to find too much more here to go close since personally i found it hard to make a better case for anything else in the race for win purposes. While the price is too short for the EW, 4/1 is worth a small punt on the nose.
