    My attention was drawn to the 3.40 at Newton Abbott today when my friend informed me of a gamble on the Mc Manus horse so i sat down and watched it and of course the horse duly obliges.

    Happy days for the connections and i’m not 1 for giving out about a team trying to land a bit of a touch but this just seems a bit insulting today.

    This horse has been beaten an aggregate of over 200 lengths in his previous 4 races on similar ground over a similar trip and the same jockey as today was used in 3 of them races yet on his 1st start in a handicap today after his last race which was less than a month ago he wins at ease following a change of tactics from his previous efforts where he went off like a scolded cat and then faded tamely and finished down the field,the cynics among us might say he was running from the front to disguise his true ability, surely not :roll: !?

    Didn’t back him or back against him in any of his previous runs or today.
