See Gord Scotty is a fighter this guy holds a special place in my heart was my 1st ever winner in the golf at 45/1 in 2011 when he won at Bridgestone. had no money on him this week but happy to see him win after what happend at the open.
Any thoughts on the money on TELESCOPE and LIBER NAUTCUIS in last few weeks they must be catching pigeons at home
darren to be honest it never came down to a battle,
Adam Scott
played solid Golf from the start,he was incredibly focused and his course management was superb,he was more like the Iceman than a Fiery Fighter,
Angel Cabrera
on the other hand did battle,he had the competition won and then he blew it but to his credit he did battle back and come the Play off both players were inseperable,shame it ended after 2 holes as those 2 were like chalk and cheese in style but truly brilliant all the same.I think GDC backed the winner so well done to Gary!
April 15, 2013 at 16:37 #436344I backed both Telescope & Liber Nauticus a few days after their Maiden wins.
Why? and what prices did you get ‘HorseWithNoName’?
April 15, 2013 at 19:04 #436356Thanks I did indeed back Adam Scott, got to be honest he was my 3rd selection of 5 behind Matt Kuchar and the extremely disappointing Hunter Mahan, still always nice to get a decent priced winner

I am on Mr Moss at 33s and Rival Destruval at 9s for the Jockanese National on Saturday, fancy anything?
April 15, 2013 at 19:09 #436358Gord did you see INDIAN CHIEF win his maiden today was a very taking performance he not main derby horse from stable MARS is but can have a decent year in 2013.

I like
Godsmejudge
Gary but I wont be going overboard.
I’m hoping bothLetir Mor
and
Olympic glory
turn up for the Greenham for obvious reasons!

I did see
Indian Chiefs
imposing victory today darren but it was expected,it only proves that
Loch Garmon
is a serious horse but funnily enough Jim rates my Derby horse
Trading Leather
higher.
April 16, 2013 at 18:46 #436448Having looked forward to backing
Captain Bertie
for a repeat victory in this weekends Spring Cup,I wish I hadn’t noticed the likes of
Global Village
and
Educate
both holding their ground,it really is a wide open renewal.The latter pair both stand out on Doncaster form.
April 16, 2013 at 20:19 #436460Well I have spent a good 4 hours today going through this years Oaks field compared to 4 minutes for The Derby which is between Jims 2
Dawn Approach
at 12/1 and
Trading Leather
at 33/1,sorted! The Oaks is a wide open event as there’s nothing with Group 1 form and Stamina that ticks the appropriate boxes,if I had to stick a grand on to win only now it would have to be
Liber Nauticus
as she has the potential to be a Group filly who will thrive on a trip but I have to consider Trainers stats,Owners stats and Breeding on these unexposed sorts,I like a once raced maiden who’s won and who comes from a staying family when I’m looking at this particular race,a filly with a bit of size and bags of scope and of course at this stage I expect a healthy double figure price.I have found a filly who ticks plenty of boxes and who comes from the right side of town,that filly is Henry Cecils
Hot Snap
,her dam
Midsummer
just about got a 11/2m but was trained like an Oaks filly,unfortunately her career was cut short but she did come from a staying family.
Pivotal
isn’t a sire you would associate with a staying sort but I believe his influence adds that touch of speed you want in a filly who like Jonibake says in his thread could be a 1000gns sort,40/1 is big but I dont see her as a miler at all I believe that Kempton 1m maiden she won confirmed even then that she was crying out for further,why she is running over 7f tomorrow surprises me as she clearly got outpaced as a 2yo before her stamina kicked in at the furlong pole,No I see this filly as an Oaks sort and have backed her for it.
Hot Snap
£100 e/w 25/1 Stan James Oaks.
£9959
April 16, 2013 at 23:42 #436483Gord the derby not between the bolger horses you should not forget my MARS and TELESCOPE or a dark horse like OCOVANGO. and am sure others come out the woodwork as well like EYE OF THE STORM who flew home when it was too late at Newmarket and be better at 3. and many more horses too.
Also gord any thoughts on newmarket this week and i see BONFIRE return this week how you think he do this year he been gelded i heard and will race at 1m2 races too.
April 17, 2013 at 17:22 #436541Gord: hope you haven’t messed up and not backed Hot Snap today? Got some 14s this morning but I am smiling from ear to ear as I borrowed some of your foresight and have backed her to win today and the Guineas at 100s and today and Oaks at 125s both with laddies

Not wanting to blow my own trumpet but Gord borrowed that foersight from me on the 28th March!
I have to say that although I backed her today and for the Guineas yesterday I too was initially scratching my head as to what Henry was doing. But you REALLY have to take note when that man does something left field because he SO RARELY does it. At halfway I thought she might finish last so she clearly IS going to be better over further. The question is how MUCH further. If you are talking Oaks you would be worried that they were already speaking about the Coronation after a possible tilt at the Guineas.
For me she moved so fluently that I would not rule out the Oaks. The stamina is there in the pedigree. But Gord could it be Frankel all over again?!! Will she or won’t she?!! How LIVID will you be if she turns out to be JUST a miler!!!

April 17, 2013 at 18:52 #436551This is a typical example of taking the opportunity to say "Of course I backed
Hot Snap
at 16’s on the machine for todays Nell Gwyn" as it would be pretty easy to say so, having written all that about her yesterday.Trouble is I didn’t have a penny on her today and worse still I didn’t have a penny on her for the Guineas either!:oops:
Excuse me a moment!What a stupid Fu*k*n Fu*kwit,T*atty stupid ****** dozy ****** idiot I am
!
Well done Joni!

Well done Gary,as I went through the Oaks field yesterday I noticed the 125/1 about her winning today and the Oaks too,I was tempted to put it up just to show Ginge that TAPK can put up 100+/1 winners too,I was only going to shove a tenner on as I really like the filly and the price was just too big!

F***** Dick I am at times!

Hot Snap
will win the 1000 gns and she will get the 11/2m of the Oaks stood on her head,she was clearly outpaced today up to the furlong pole then she took off and wasn’t stopping,after she does the business at HQ,History tells us she’s Epsom bound so I’m not worried about these Coronation Stakes quotes,she’s a bit special!
I’m still a F***** Prick and a half though for not backing her today
April 17, 2013 at 19:31 #436555She still has a lot to find with Certify.
April 17, 2013 at 19:42 #436556She still has a lot to find with Certify.
On a line through ‘Sky Lantern’ she has absolutely nothing to find with ‘Certify’ Horse,She has far more scope than the Godolphin filly too.No I saw enough today to tell me this filly is a reincarnation of
Diminuendo
,remember her?
April 17, 2013 at 20:15 #436558Tomorrow sees an intriguing little rematch between
Toronado
and
Dundonell
in the Craven stakes,a race recognised as a serious Guineas trial,on these revised terms you would expect the latter to come out on top,I’m not really bothered who wins so long as they finish within a length of each other,that would confirm a pretty much the same amount of improvement over the winter from both.My assessment of both is ‘Toronado’ is a gritty determined front runner who will battle,whereas ‘Dundonell’ is a bridle horse who wont,that tells you who I’d still be on to win again!
