Monday Racing at Ffos Las and Southwell

Trevor Hemmings has two useful bumper prospects on show today at Ffos Las and Southwell, the first being Western Jo at Ffos Las for Phillip Hobbs and Richard Johnson. He was unfortunate to run behind a very smart David Pipe animal, who has since gone on to frank the form, and displayed enough promise to show there is more to come. Fling Me has the same profile, and goes for Oliver Sherwood and decent apprentice Thomas Garner taking off a useful seven pounds. A well-bred six year old, he is related to multiple winners, and third on debut behind two smart horses from David Pipe and Rebecca Curtis, both of whom have come out and won their next two starts.

Lava Lamp took advantage of a ever free-falling mark last time at Ffos Las and aims to take advantage just eight days later of his rating, under a seven pound penalty. Useful Conor Ring will once again use his ten pound claim, and he looks to be able to make full use of conditions in his favour.

As does Pass Muster who looks to have been given a very lenient opening mark for a shrewd and in form stable at Phil Kirby’s yard. Rated 79 on the flat, he has been tried at longer trips on heavy going, but is down to the minimum trip on good ground at Southwell, and is sure to have further improvement than his mark suggests. Unfortunately Hugh Taylor has tipped him up and a lot of juice has gone from the price, but he still could be worth a punt at around the 4/1 mark.
