The Sire system is back. Last years winner Lambourn sired by Australia for his first Derby son victory. Available at 100-1 early in the year, did I get on? Did I Feck. Did at 12s though so fair. Also counts for extra special non-derby winning sires.
There are 7 horses currently in the market who fit the bill, all sired by Camelot and this WILL (possibly) be his year.
Pierre Bonnard 5/1 – Nuff said Fred
Christmas Day 50/1 – 9f group 3 winner on his last start for AOB
Port Ferdinand 50/1 – 7f winner on his only start for AOB
Del Maro 66/1 – Keeping on third behind Pierre in the Zetland for Charles Applebum
George Stubbs 66/1 – Unraced AOB, interestingly Mr. Stubbs was best known as a painter of horses
Golden Knight 66/1 – Winner over a mile on 2nd start for Ed Walker
Isaac Newton 100/1 – Staying on behind Pierre in the Criterium, big name, more expected?
£2 on each for now. Any free bets received or pence in the accounts will be spread across all. Should have started this earlier but now is better than never.
