Ayr Gold Cup

Does anyone know if Great Minds is an intend runner in this?

He's ground dependent and therefore would turn up if it's good ground but I'd like to know that this is the plan before I start throwing money at him.

Cant see any quotes about him FM. Has an entry in Curragh too http://www.racingpost.com/horses/ho...rse_race_record&bottomHorseTabs=horse_entries



Spotted 80/1 tip via racing UK

David Nicholls could have another well-handicapped sprinter on his hands in the shape of Apricot Sky, who carries confidence in the handicap over five furlongs at Beverley on Saturday.

The Thirsk trainer has made a career of improving other trainers’ horses and the selection won off 68 at Hamilton last week, having come to Tall Trees Stables rated almost 90.

Nicholls loves to target the Ayr Gold Cup and this capable five-year-old will need to return to his old form to have any chance of making the cut. It wouldn’t be the first time the talented Yorkshireman has achieved the feat. You can get 80-1 with Bet365 he wins the Ayr feature.

Suzi's Connoisseur was slightly unlucky yesterday when cramped for room at a vital point. He's heading for this next and is of interest.
