Sunday’s Racing: Follow Cobden at Plumpton and Amo Racing’s Hamilton record
We’ve got a fairly quiet Sunday on our hands this week, with just three meetings taking place across Britain and Ireland, with Hamilton, Plumpton and Listowel providing the racing action. Amo Racing’s record at Hamilton this year is excellent and Ollie Sangster sends one on the 750-mile round trip there. Harry Cobden has been in fair form recently so we’ve assessed the chances of his rides at Plumpton. Check out our free tips page for daily content across British and Irish racing.
Amo Racing at Hamilton
Hamilton has been a happy hunting ground for the big-spending Amo Racing operation, with five of their seven runners so far this season coming out on top. They are set to be represented by one runner at the Scottish track on Sunday so we’ve taken a closer look.
Vincenzo Peruggia is slipping down the weights in eye-catching fashion and a first handicap success could well be on the cards sooner rather than later. Second off a 7lb higher mark at Musselburgh on seasonal debut, a reproduction of that sort of form would give him every chance.
Long distance traveller alert
It’s a 750-mile round trip from Ollie Sangster’s Marlborough base to Hamilton and he has only sent one previous runner there. Doubling his tally on Sunday, he sends one runner and connections certainly won’t want to come home empty-handed.
Space Dreamer got off the mark with a smooth success in a Brighton maiden last month and she followed that up by winning on handicap debut at Bath. Clearly this filly is going the right way and if taking another step forward here, a 6lb rise might not be enough to stop her.
Cobden is the jockey to follow at Plumpton
Harry Cobden is operating at a strike-rate of 33 per cent in the last fortnight and he heads to Plumpton two ride two for his boss JP McManus.
Mojito Des Mottes ran a cracker to finish second in a decent handicap at Ascot in March and earned a first success in Britain when landing a Newton Abbot Class 4 by just shy of 10 lengths last time out. He’s up 8lb as a consequence but the four-year-old is entitled to build on that performance.
Anxious Moments has shown very little in three starts in novice and maiden company but the switch to low grade handicaps should facilitate some improvement, although we do need to see a lot more.
