It’s golf from the Valero Texas Open and Day Two of York’s Dante meeting for Thursday’s Daily bets from JOE.
David Elsworth’s SNOQUALMIE STAR should benefit from the switch into handicap company and judging from a couple of her starts as a two-year-old, which included a fast-finishing fifth in a hot maiden at Newmarket last August, could be better than her current rating of 70.
On to club-swinging, and we’re looking at the Texas Open which gets underway on Thursday afternoon.
JB HOLMES is the one that catches our eye, particularly in the place-only (five places) market. The 28-year-old Kentuckian has been in good form without winning this year, and continued in that vein when a good 13th at the Players Championship last weekend, so 13/2 looks attractive in the place-only betting.
JOE’s DAILY DOUBLE: JB Holmes (Valero Texas Open, Place Only Betting – 5 places @ 13/2) & Snoqualmie Star (Newmarket, 6.15 @ 12/1)
