A very busy Thursday and here are the thoughts of our Long Shot tipster.
Ripon
J: Jason Hart
T: R Fell & S Murray
Cockalorum maybe in the twilight years of his racing career at the age of 9, however he still has a trick or two to play and looks to have optimum conditions to make it win number 9 of his career. He might not have seen out the 1m4f distance at Newcastle last time and a return to 1m2f on soft ground should suit him really well. Being a prominent racer he has an excellent draw in 3 to attack from on a racecourse that often favours front runners. Add into the mix that he is now 1lb lower than his last winning mark and then Cockalorum seems to have a lot going for him. Cockalorum rates a 5 star each way Pick.
