YORK ...Day one.

I do not have much joy at York as a rule, so my selections have a great chance of winning as I will not be backing them.

York 1.30: Caldercruix.

Rating comes from his Ayr run last year, when Northside Prince ahead of him. Both have EW chances, but I favour TAQLEED on this easier ground.

York 2.00: COMMON TOUCH

SHROPSHIRE looked much improved when 'frankeled' last time out in the Greenham. Drops down to h'cap company today. He could have too much class for these? However, the selection was also much improved and only 2lbs below Shropshire on my ratings and yet it is receiving 14lbs here? I fear the favourite has been over-rated because of his proximity to Frankel?

York 2.30: BAREFOOT LADY

Two things that might stop you taking a short price about this one; It is only 10 days since the 1000gns run, and it is a small field so it might get tactical. That apart she looks well clear of what the rest have shown so far?

York 3.00: DELEGATOR

Not surprisingly not a selection. done all his running at 7f+, so it seems strange to try sprinting now? GENKI hit Group level with his rating last time, and given a similar strongly run race I think he has every chance of repeating his win last time out. I give an EW squeak, on ratings at least, to LADIES ARE FOREVER. Early for 3yo's taking on their seniors, but the allowance here give her a big chance at decent odds?

York 3.35: LOVERS CAUSEWAY

Clear on Chester ratings, but this is a different track?

York 4.10: Not enough rated, I pass on this one.

York 4.45: MIKA MICA

Again, weak top-rated as so many could improve passed this one.

Have a good day ...
