He can make it three on the bounce at Ascot on Sunday off what is still a lenient-looking mark
The Brocklesby Stakes at Doncaster gets the Flat turf season under way in Britain, but the ground at Town Moor is going to be pretty testing so for that reason I will be giving the meeting a wide berth.
However, I must admit I said the exact same thing about the Curragh last weekend and look what happened. Three winning favourites and not a single winner returned at a double-digit SP. It turned into a profitable day for most punters.
After saying all that, it is actually on the Flat where I will go for my first proper bet on Saturday. The opener on the all-weather at Kempton is the Unibet Horseracing Betting Operator Of The Year EBF Novice Stakes (1.30) and I'm confident Burglar will steal the prize.
