(2.05 Capeland, 2.40 Goring One!)10/1, Nicely priced winner for you there, GM.
Value Is EverythingThanks, Mark, think it was about 16/1 when I picked it but it’s irrelevant as I won’t invest if I haven’t studied the form. Mind you, had I spent an hour plus on the race (as in previous seasons) I would probably have become a slave to my ratings and picked something else! Just haven’t the time with the National website and my parents.
Your summary of the 1.35 was virtually spot on. We were both done by Coeur Blimey, I tend to oppose Lucy as she always takes an outside route and is the opposite of stylish in the saddle (her stats are ok though).
Picked a horse in 19 races – at my usual £10W would have made £20 profit!
Andrew Thornton – there’s life in the old dog yet! :)

13 points @ 15/2 (betbright) Red River (min 13/2)Can’t understand betting for this. I backed On The Blind Side last time out, but he struggled for pace. Expected an increase in trip to 3m and must take him on here. Had two savers and a main bet against him. White Moon had a lot in hand winning a couple of novices and could be anything. Red River won his only start by 13 lengths – although after such an impressive performance tongue tie is a bit of a negative. Both those are from in-form trainers; unlike Springtown Lake. Philip Hobbs hasn’t hit top form yet (no winner in 20) bit plenty have placed in that time. Springtown Lake would’ve won a handicap off 129 with ease; coming down after the last. Now on 137 and improving fast. Strangely, 5/1 has been shortened up by several bookmakers, and yet I’ve taken all rates from 13/2 to 9/1 on betfair and he’s still 8/1. Puzzling, seems well worth taking a risk at 5/1, let alone 8/1. Hope he’s jumping ok.
Value Is EverythingPurely on the impression made on me: Red River.
Red River is the one of my three that has been backed, GM. What do you think of a tongue tie being applied after such an impressive performance; is that a negative for you? tbh Had he not been tongue tied would’ve been a main bet.

Shouldn’t have got involved in the Exeter race, big reasons not to back every runner which makes the race a lottery.

Value Is EverythingWell, On The Blind Side was the form pick and it now looks as if it’ll be him vs the Irish in the 2m5f Festival novice. I wasn’t worried re the tongue tie for Red River, GT, figuring it might be an extra advantage where one hadn’t seemed to be needed. Perhaps they detected a very slight potential problem. I’m more worried after the race. I think he was beaten on merit but now there’s a nagging doubt that he could be a horse somewhat limited in his career by wind issues whereas previously he could have been anything. At least his bubble was not completely burst like White Moon’s.
