Both of Richard's bets run at Taunton
Richard Hoiles picks out his two best bets from Taunton.
Some promising horses on show at Newbury today but Taunton looks of more interest from a betting perspective starting with Al Alfa (14:50). The winner of a point in Ireland he moves into handicaps for the first time coupled with the introduction of a tongue tie. He has given the impression that he has more ability than he has so far displayed over hurdles to date, most notably last time at Exeter when he looked to be ridden more with an eye to going handicapping than getting as close as possible on the day. The stable had three winners on Monday and all looks set for a better effort from Al Alfa today.
Just over half an hour later For The Staff (15.25) can once again advertise the training skills of Jackie Du Plessis. Her record under Rules reads 9/44 for a profit of 28.18 and an actual to expected winner ratio of 1.68. For The Staff was no match for Desperate Dex at Chepstow but given the form of the winner the 6lb drop by the handicapper looks generous and has enabled him to run in this 0-100 Handicap against an exposed and quirky bunch of rivals.
Recommendations:
Both at Taunton
Back Al Alfa in the 14:50
Back For The Staff in the 15:25
