I've not taken any note of the American racing since after the first lockdown ended. It helped keep me occupied. I hope that your bets came in?I don't often bet on US racing outside the breeders Cup but there's some cert nice racing there tonight. Aiden O Brien and Charlie Appelby(amongst others)having sent a few over.
Japan goes at Belmont 20.47. He's currently 2/1.
I doubled him with Athiqa at keenland 21.44 at 7/4.
Japan has great form over in the US. Narrowly losing last time when chopped off in running.
Athiqa has Spencer riding for Appleby. Looks the classiest horse in the field.
The double for anyone who fancies it pays about 8/1.
If you're feeling brave you could include Order of Australia at Keenland 22.46 at 7/4.
The treble pays 22/1 ish.
Given the amount of racing today worth betting on I came out of it with a slight profit but I'll wait until mid day tomorrow to avoid the late non runners. I love big field racing
As an aside. I noticed that young Laura Pearson had 5 rides this evening and she gave them all up. This has happened a number of times now after a truly blistering start to her career. Trainers have often had to pull out their horses at the last minute because of her pulling out of riding which has made trainers very reluctant to give her rides. I hope that she is well because she is a brilliant prospect
