Growl has run some good races this season but hasn’t got his head in front for a long time now. He’s becoming a bit of a ‘cliff horse’ for me but with the softer ground hopefully slowing up a few of the rest I’m in again, 7 places with Sky at 8/1.
Good luck all.
I like the look of Teruntum Star, 16/1 at this ungodly hour, but might just have a few points
added when the market gets going in the morning. He’s hardly what you
would call bang in form, but he’ll cope well with the ground and has some decent
form in the book. In particular he put Spring Loaded to he sword just about this
time last year in the Coral Sprint at York off a mark of 98. That was when Spring
Loaded was bang in form and had just romped home doing handstands in the Porrtland
Handicap. He’s not hit the hights since, but was given a good break before coming
back for the Great St Wilfred last time out. He trailed in last of the 20, but you
can forget that run as he all but fell out of the stalls. He wasn’t unfancied at
8/1, so running of a mark of 99 gives him every chance if Kevin Ryan (who’s won this
3 times out of the last 7 runnings) has got him right. I’m keen on his chances.I also give Aces at 20/1 a bit of a shout too. I’ll settle for those two. Best of luck all
It’s Aces for me at 20/1 (22s including boost) with William Hill. Played him each way (6 places).
Also done my customary each way bet on Growl for 6 places at 9/1.
I’m also on Aces for the another handicap plot by Mr Williams. I liked what I saw at Epsom and he has the soft ground form in France. Ice Age is drawn potentially badly but the 7 pound claim brings him into contention and goes in the mud. I also like Naadirr on his Spring form and Flying Persuit looks tailor made. Aces (14/1), Ice Age (22/1), Flying Persuit (12/1) and Naadirr (40/1).
I am going to be greedy here + add 2 more. I have bet Teruntum Star, but he is just for the win + Summerghand each way.
Well done Kris and Raymo, you got the lottery up! Well, half a lottery.
Value Is EverythingWD Raymo, and Kris, and anyone else with the winner(s)
Two fab horses, so far clear of the rest!Thanks Ginge and GAG
After seeing the replay I said to Mrsraymo I would settle for a dead heat so can’t be disappointed!!
One hundred yards out Baron was deffo in front but the other one maybe was dossing and fought back!!Well dome Kris too!!
Yes, Raymo.
My thoughts were Son Of Rest went for home a little too soon and then idled in front before fighting back once Baron came alongside. The Baron was in front on his own a pixel before and after the post; with SOR’s head down on the line.Value Is EverythingThank you guys, I thought he was beat, so I was happy to settle for a dead heat.
Well done Raymo too
