The delights of Glorious Goodwood are on the horizon and now is a good time to have a bet on a consistent, well-handicapped horse with rock solid course and distance form and who is not ground dependent. Furthermore, he is on offer at a super-generous 33-1 with most bookmakers.
REVICH is a credit to the training skills of his Newmarket handler Richard Spencer. The seven-year-old gelding, owned by the Middleham Park syndicate, recently took his career earnings to more than £150,000 when he came fourth last time out at Sandown despite being denied a clear run.
However, it is Revich’s run in the Golden Mile at Glorious Goodwood last season that makes me want to back him for the same race this year – two weeks today on Friday, 4 August. Revich was a fast-finishing third that day despite having a terrible draw in stall 15 in a race where low numbers are always hugely favoured.
