Let's dive into the nitty-gritty about Medinilla at Thirsk today! Aged 3, this filly is competing in a thrilling 6f race on 'Good' going, dubbed the 'Race 5 Next Meeting 17th June Featuring Royal Ascot Handicap' at 16:55. With odds at a short 3.00, it seems the bookies are keeping an eye on her as well. Teamed up with jockey D Tudhope and trainer J Channon, Medinilla boasts a promising form with a recent win backing her performance. Furthermore, her strike rate in the last 30 days stands out at 100%, which should give her backers a bit of confidence going into this race. Although her familiarization with the Thirsk track isn't well documented in recent races, her performance over this specific distance has been commendable. Tudhope's recent form adds an extra layer of intrigue, sporting a decent strike rate across his last 14 days. The partnership dynamics between Tudhope and Channon haven't been notably fruitful in the very recent past according to available data, which might be a point to watch whichever way the race goes. Next, let's talk about Lorna B, priced at a value of 5.5. This filly is another young competitor at 3 years and shares similar race conditions to our top pick. However, her performance doesn't quite mirror Medinilla's, as evidenced by her winless stint over the last 30 days and an overall strike rate that might raise some eyebrows rather than bets. Partnered with jockey D Swift and under the guidance of trainer Seb Spencer, Lorna B hopes to buck the trends but her and her team's recent performances suggest that punters might be cautious. Maddelina, priced equally short at 3.00 as Medinilla, could stir the pot in this race. She shares the age, track conditions, and similar jockey calibre, with Jason Hart taking the reigns. Her winning performance aligns closely with Medinilla as they both have clinched victory in their recent outings. While the trainer stats for J & S Quinn show moderate success, it's Hart's strike rate that might sway some support towards Maddelina, particularly given his recent track record and experience at Thirsk. For those looking at longer odds, keep an eye on Marry The Night at 17.00, potentially offering a rewarding if riskier punt. So, saddle up for what appears to be a cracking race at Thirsk. While Medinilla looks to be the favourite, the races are always packed with surprises. Whichever horse you back, remember to gamble responsibly and enjoy the thrill of the race!
