Confidence rating

The small fields this week make for an interesting day! Races 1 and 2 look to be even, while I’d avoid races 7 and 9 (despite Red Fifty Three being the favourite I think it’s quite an open race). In terms of my horses Masamune and Changing Guard, I think they are both definitely in with a chance. If you’re a long time follower, you’ll know that I hate tipping my horses on top and while I would have liked a bit more rain for Changing Guard I think his form two starts ago was pretty good. Fingers crossed for a winning day!
