Tanya's Blog - Wednesday 30th May 2012

Addictive Dream picked up some valuable prizes on his visit to Meydan, boosting the coffers of his owners. Shirley Teasdale gets a further chance to shine and take a valuable seven pounds of lead from the saddle making the horse a very interesting proposition and a selection for me today.

Escape To Glory has been backed on each of his last two starts in very hot handicaps at Newmarket and York. The latter races he was just beaten two lengths into eighth of 19. Having done more mileage than me in the last few weeks he heads to Folkestone this evening to hopefully recoup losses for those who have shown so much faith.

Yesterday following the pairing of Mirco Demuro and Mark Johnston paid huge dividends for the blog and Party Royal in Ayr’s 2.10pm could prove to be fruitful. Soft ground round the twists and turns of Chester are now replaced by the contrasting straight and good to firm of Ayr.

Today's selections:

2.10pm Ayr: Party Royal

6.15pm Folkestone: Escape To Glory

7.05pm Beverley: Addictive Dream
