Sandown
13.30pm Malcolm Palmer Memorial Handicap 7f 16y
(3yo, 7f 16y, Class 3, 8 runners)
I start here with the first race at Sandown as I've found a little value. BEACH CLUB at the time of writing this can still be backed at 10/1 and for me that's too big a price to let go. David Brown the trainer finished the end of June with an excellent strike rate and I believe he has another chance here of saddling the winner. BEACH CLUB is still unexposed with only five starts under his belt and arguably ran his best race last time out at Haydock going down by head to Equity Risk who may turn out to be an excellent horse for Kevin Ryan and form which I believe to be strong. In summary, if he can handle the ground take an uncontested lead and get himself into a rhythmn then at the price he undoubtedly is worth a few quid. Get the 10/1's now.

(3yo+, 5f 6y, Class 1, 8 runners)
HOYAM is a filly I really respect, at the tender age of three I believe she has a big future as a top flight sprinter. She has never disgraced herself against the colts and will undoubtedly go well again here. The drop back in trip to the minimal over the 5f on lightning fast ground is certain to play into her strengths, the weight allowance could be crucial here off a light weight of 8-9lbs and if she can be held up in touch I'm certain her turn of foot will come into play with a furlong to go. HOYAM will need to break well from stall 1 but I see another big run on the cards against opposition she is well in on. Again, some 10/1 flying around worth an each way squeak.

(3yo+, 1m 2f 7y, Class 1, 7 runners)
Brillaint race in prospect here and a very tough decision has to be made. We have Mars the progressive three year old who has a bright future but is this too hard a task? Al Kazeem? Has he had a hard season, particularly last time out at Ascot? The Fugue, will she be fresher than some of these and sharper from only having one run this season? Well, at the prices and with a solid performance last time at Royal Ascot my selection goes to MUKHADRAM. This horse has always been the apple of the trainers eye, William Haggas holds him in the highest of esteem and I was very impressed by his last run in the St James's Palace stakes at Royal Ascot. The jockey Paul Hanagan almost ran the race to perfection only to be beaten by a head by another favourite of mine Al Kazeem. If Al Kazeem wins this I really won't mind as he is a lovely horse and has been handled with the most midas touch by his trainer Roger Charlton and is a worthy favourite. MUKHADRAM took the Brigadier Gerard Stakes at the course and on that occassion dictated the race from start to finish, he travels beautifully in his races and I believe he could be hard to pin back, a very talented individual and a horse to watch in the future. Overpriced at the current 8/1 mark.

FRANCISCAN. After being dramatically out of form since a York success over a year ago, the five-year-old was back to form last month when just failing with a late thrust to land the Cumberland Plate. I'm certain he's been targeted for this race by Luca Cumani who has trained three of the last nine winners of this contest and I see that as a very interesting pointer, you must take note of Cumani! I like the stamina this horse has in a finish and believe he could be extremely well handicapped in a race which requires a strong stayer on lightning quick ground.
Good Luck if ypur having a punt!
