    Happy that Chiefofchiefs has made it (so far), and Gulliver is the straightforward second selection. He’s the other one from my original trio to jump out, and I’ll stick with him having went with him at The Curragh where he really should have won.

    Sir Dancealot still catches my eye, but I’ll leave it at two for now.

    Chiefofchiefs EW 7pls/50’s
    Gulliver 14’s

    I like my related-contingency multiple bets – I had one come off with Simca Mille and Eldar Eldarov last week.

    I’ve linked up a low-drawn horse from each of the three big sprint handicaps.

    If there’s a pronounced draw bias tomorrow, it’s likely to affect the odds for Saturday so if you get it right tomorrow you could be sitting on a nice bet.

    Just ‘scored’ with Danzan at 16s, placed last night, so a bit of a plunge today i guess.
    Anyways the main take out is Danzan was drawn 23. The 2nd was in stall 25, the 3rd in stall 2. 4th , 17. 5th 24.

    Make of that what u will.

    Right, let’s see about tomorrow’s Gold and Silver Cups :good:

    Should add that the Easterbys are in fine form and obs targetting these big field handicaps.

    All good points, IMO, Wilts.

    The Easterbys won so many races yesterday that I was concentrating on them last night so didn’t back Raising Sand who is one of my cliff horses. Of course I didn’t back Danzan today.

    Easterbys dont have a runner in the Gold cup :wacko: 🤣
    But has 3 in the Silver; i’m already on Hyperfocus in the Silver; bet it 2 days ago.
    I wouldnt be put off a draw of Stalls 1, 2 or 3 to be fair.

    Weather set fair overnight and into tomorrow, according to latest forecasts, so going likely to be Good, good to soft.

    Nothing in the draw I didn’t think watching the Bronze both sides had every chance, I’d probably rather one near either rail than bang in the middle. The main takeout was that you probably wanted to be near the pace not sure much got involved from the back. Not sure this will suit the likes of Gulliver and Chiefofchiefs unless they go too hard but hopefully I’m wrong for your sake VTC. Easterby’s don’t have anything good enough for the Gold.

    My pin has landed on Motagally 14-1 bog ew 6 places. I can’t make up my mind who the best horse is out of the low drawn ones so gone for a high number with a chance. Ran well in the Portland on ground he don’t like and 4th in this last year off a higher mark.

    “The main takeout was that you probably wanted to be near the pace not sure much got involved from the back”

    Looks that way. Just watched the race again, and there were groups leading every 2f, from low numbers, middle numbers, then the high numbers. Hope that makes sense?, at every point or furlong “the pace” was right across the track. It wasnt like “the pace” was confined to just one group.
    So, makes it even more of a puzzle for tomorrow.
    Hold Up horses need not apply :whistle:

    Gulliver for me also, 17s&18s is more than fair, shame bergerac is drawn low, think hes got more improvement in him, ill add him in @30s+ but id be heavy on him if he was drawn higher

    As usual with these big sprint Saturday handicaps i’m mob handed.

    Motagally and Vadream for me, high numbers, and one on the ‘other side’ Tinto.

    Best of luck to all :good:

    I’ve backed up Gulliver with chiefofchiefs , aleezdancer and documenting , I still believe you want to be in the extremes of the draw , I’ve done a Gulliver/Documenting rev forecast

    Headwind likely at Ayr today – a hold-up horse who can get cover and maybe stays beyond 6f could be key.
