Woohoo (14:30 Ayr — Class 5 Handicap, 5f)
A five-year-old mare trained by Jim Goldie, whose yard won this very race last year, and partnered by Paul Mulrennan who has a remarkable 66% win rate on her across three rides together. Woohoo has been in fine form this summer, winning at Musselburgh in April before finishing second here at Ayr just eight days ago in an amateur handicap off today’s identical mark — the form is fresh, the track is right, and the combination of Goldie and Mulrennan here is one to respect.
She has a 50% win record at Ayr across four visits, handles good to firm ground well, and drops into a Class 5 where her recent course form puts her clear of most rivals on paper.
Verdict: Back to win at 13/8 — course form, in-form partnership, yard won this race last year. Looks solid.
