6 meetings today

Once again, 6 low-level meetings today. Brighton´s fixture is as usual very poor, but Ryan Moore, who spent his childhood here, can win the first 3 races on Rocker for his father Gary at 15.20 CET, Chaussini for James Toller at 15.50 and Aye Aye Digby half an hour later for Paul Chamings. Moore then hotfoots it to the evening meeting at Kempton, where he can be on the scoreboard again with Jeremy Noseda´s debutant Red Alpha at 19.00 and Sir Michael Stoute´s Top Diktat at 19.30. He also rides Botanist for Stoute in the mile handicap at 21.30, but this is very open, and Tarooq (Richard Fahey/ Paul Hanagan) looks the likeliest winner here. An interesting runner at Kempton is Gestüt Ammerland´s Baltic (Henry Cecil/ Tom Queally), who has a favourite´s chance in the maiden race for 3yo fillies at 20.00.

Another jockey riding at two meetings is Tony McCoy. He goes to Southwell for one ride only, Jonjo O´N eill´s Hard Tackle in the handicap hurdle at 18.20 and then travels on to Towcester, where he can win the novice chase at 21.10 on Warren Greatrex´ Paint the Clouds. He also has a chance on Nicky Henderson´s Sizing Ireland half an hour earlier, but this one does not look too reliable and was turned over at long odds-on last time, German-bred Speedy Direct (Milton Harris/ Jimmy Derham) is preferred.

Frankie Dettori is at Nottingham, where he partners two Godolphin maidens, debutant Universal at 15.30 and Burj Hatta at 17.30, both with winning prospects. Ex-German Andorn, a listed class performer for Schlenderhan, lost his way after being sold to the U.K., but he has certainly found his form now and has won 6 of his last 7 races, including over hurdles earlier ths month. He can continue his winning run in the 2 mile handicap at 16.30.
