Brucie bonus time at Southwell

Before Bruce has shown enough of late to suggest he is capable of breaking his duck in the 3.00 at Southwell today and at 11/2 looks the best bet on the card.

Brendan Powell’s gelding responded well to the visor when staying on to finish runner-up at Towcester last month off a mark of 88, and has been far from disgraced in his last two starts after being raised 2lb by the handicapper.

The four-year-old finished a decent 7th of 17 to Mac Beattie on his last start at Warwick in a hotter looking race than this, where the 2m 1f journey was arguably too sharp for him and he will appreciate the step back up in trip to 2m 4f this afternoon.

The assessor has also given him a chance by dropping him back down to the same mark as when runner-up at Towcester, and with conditions ideal everything looks in place for a huge run.

Today’s contest is certainly very weak and lacks any strength in depth, and at 11/2 he looks overpriced against some very modest and disappointing rivals.

Daily Sport recommended bet: 3pts win Before Bruce (11/2 bet365, Hills – BOG)
