04/10/2014 In-Running Lays: Back-to-lay Justice Day and Dance King

Some tough results yesterday in-running despite starting with a winner; things soon turned.  Plucky Dip looked likely to save the day making his usual late headway to get his run blocked late in the straight.  Hopefully things will go a little better with today’s selections.

2.05 Ascot: Justice Day has been contesting some hot sprints lately and trading Very low; either leading or leading late on. Today’s listed event looks to be his level and should contest this for a back-to-lay around 10.0.

4.25 Ascot: Felwah will try and blast off in front and try to make all in this 7 furlong contest.  She is stepping up from handicap company to listed class but has already racked up 4 wins in her last 5 races.  She currently trades around 6.6 which is a big enough price for a back-to-lay on this front-runner.

4.40 Newmarket: Remember should go close in this 6 furlong sprint to usually lead late on before her run peters out.  Look to back around 6.8 and lay back at half those odds.

5.00 Ascot: Peterkin and Extrasolar could both be worth playing in this sprint.  They both like to race up with the pace and usually end up leading at some point in their races before fading so it could pay to play both at 40% of the back price as back-to-lays; both will be around the 36.0 mark in this big field.

5.30 Redcar: Dance King is on a run of 7 consecutive trades below half his BSP and should carry that on today if he comes with his usual late charge. Look to back around 10.0 to lay back at half those odds in-running.
