It will be a quiet build up to the busy festive period for me with plenty of big days ahead and so I have found just the one tomorrow and that comes in the last at Wincanton.
15:45, 9 Tickets On Saver Saturday - 4th January Mares' Handicap Hurdle
Linda Moon 7/2 each-way (3 places)
Neil King's 5 year old mare finished second to Golden Ace at Taunton last season. It's fair to say she hasn't hit the same heights as Jeremy Scott's stable star but Linda Moon has run very well in defeat since. She finished 4th (behind 2 Irish runners) in a class 2 at Kelso in May before finding her run soon after perhaps too much of a quick turnaround. She's a pound lower here and will hopefully come on for her seasonal debut when beaten less than a length at Taunton in November. That was her first go at further than 2 miles and it looks sure to unlock improvement. She's up another 178 yards in trip today and may find this track more suitable than Taunton. She's got to shoulder top weight but this is easier than some of the races she has been contesting so far and could be set to get off the mark.
