6f (6f3y) Oddschecker British EBF Woodcote Stakes (Conditions Race) (GBB Race) (Class 2) (2yo)
I don’t see a standout piece of form here in the Woodcote, there isn’t a Pinatubo or a horse of that quality in the line-up it appears and therefore the form of everything in here looks pretty close. Clearly Possessive was impressive on debut and has strong connections. I also liked the look of Wild Terrains debut but the form of that race looks suspect.
At much bigger odds, you can make a decent case for RLASTHOPE with Colin Keane an attractive jockey-booking. He ran well on debut in a big field before getting bumped at a crucial point. Rlasthope then followed that up with a really strong run behind Adonius who is now rated around the 100 mark and his last run in a large field saw him drawn out on the wing with no cover before finishing a close enough fourth.
He may not have the flashiest profile, but his recent efforts suggest a level of consistency and competitiveness that can get him into the mix here and the fact he has experience could give him a slight edge at this stage of his career. He looks a decent each-way play here.
1pt each-way Rlasthope @14/1, 14:05 Epsom, Friday (1/5 odds, four places)
