BINTATALEUMYDARLIN is a speculative pick with Forshour and Boss's Destination the others of note. Mark Johnston's filly is a half sister to juvenile winner, Better Hand, so there should be no issue in relation to trip and age and while it is often the case that the Middleham handler's horses are better for a run, this probably is not the strongest of contests and we take her to go well at the likely prices. Forshour was a very cheap purchase. He had little chance against Mister Angry at Wolverhampton but the way in which he kept on suggested that he might find a small race. Boss¿s Destination quite simply lost his race in the paddock on debut but the money that arrived for him beforehand suggests that he must have some ability. Frontline Boy is related to winners over further. That said, there is plenty to like about the pedigree. Our Joe Mac was third on debut at York though the time figure was not anything to write home about. Emerald Glade was punted down from 25-1 into 8-1 though the bookmakers were never troubled as far as payout was concerned. Quite Sparky hails from a yard that can have them ready first time out so the market is watched. Bintataleumydarlin gets the nod.
