Why will NAP of the Day Siroco Joe win?
His French form when a short-neck runner-up at Clairefontaine has been boosted by the third home. Yes Indeed won over hurdles in March and then a Listed chase later in the spring. The form of Siroco Joe’s juvenile hurdle win over course and distance on his penultimate start has some substance to it as well. He ran out a two-length winner that day.
The runner-up, Saint Palais, has come out and won first time up over fences at Worcester. Herbiers was a further three-quarters of a length back in third. That one landed an Ascot handicap when next in action and then the Novices’ Championship Final on the last day of last season at Sandown. Even the sixth home, Salamanca School, has scored on his chase debut since.
Siroco Joe now drops in class after finishing down the field at Ascot on his final start of the campaign. Lorcan Williams takes a valuable 3lb off with his claim, something conditional jockeys can do when riding for their own stable in races like these. It gives Siroco Joe a nice racing weight of 11st 3lb for his second crack at a handicap.
This is also a smaller field than Ascot with less than half the runners from last time out. Siroco Joe is well worth another go, especially against opposition largely rated in the 110s. A £25 punt on him at his current price returns £87.50 if he resumes winning ways. Should Siroco Joe lose on his reappearance, then QuinnBet refunds the stake as a free bet.
