16.50 Wolverhampton: Precision Strike @ 4/1 Bet365 - 4pts win
This is a very poor race but if one stands out for me than it is really Precision Strike here in my mind. He ran now the last two times very well but was on both occasions an unlucky horse. The Friday one week ago at Wolverhampton he travelled well enough in rear of the field and improved his position in good style when turning for home but was badly hampered around 1f out and lost every chance as a result of that as he was out off his rhythm and didn't recover. He dropped 3lb for this run and appeared three days later at the same track and was equally unlucky again but really showed that he's now a very well handicapped horse in my mind. He was travelling in rear again which wasn't the best position though as the pace was slow and when the leaders kicked away 3f out he simply was not able to react from behind as he was locked on the inside. Entering the home straight he had loads to do but was finally in the clear and finished then like a train cutting back the deficit in eye-catching fashion to finish 3rd in the end. Generous as the handicapper is he gets another pound off the mark so that I can't help myself but Precision Strike should be more than ready to strike if finally getting a clear run.
