Bruno's Memorial Classic (2pts):
Gil Morgan to win 12/1 e.w. @
Stan James,
William Hill
and
BetInternet
Can't see beyond two form horses and a course specialist this week.
Morgan has finished outside the top-10 just one in eight starts this
season and came very close to adding a second title of the year last
week. It was still his fifth top-4 finish in his last seven starts, so
he should get another place finish at least, particularly as his
previous course form has been very good.
Bruce Fleisher to win 16/1 e.w. @
SkyBet
Fleisher has been much more competitive this year than last with one win
and five top-10 finishes already. Having finished in the top-20 in each
of the last five years and was runner-up last year, he should be able to
build on his current form and challenge for this title again this year.
Tom Purtzer to win 18/1 e.w. @
BetInternet
Purtzer is a form player who might not have such good credentials on
this course, but is currently on a run of five successive top-6
finishes, including one win. In that form and having two years' course
experience, he is difficult to leave of the selection list.
Final update: 1-2; +16.00pts
Morgan 57th
Fleisher 1st
Purtzer 25th
Very surprising to see such lowly positions from Morgan and Purtzer
having been consistent all year, though coasting after an uncompetitive
first round is understandable in these circumstances. Just as well
Fleisher dominated the event, leading from start to finish and closing
as a seven shot winner.
