October 11, 2016 at 21:33 #1266743hope you dont mind guys. but im new to this. been reading what you all have said and my own belief is that if no soft in the going report then think limato is a real good thing
6fur is perfect with the ground good or firmer i think limato is the best in europe

Welcome to the forum lionroars, nice to have you with us. Absolutely no doubt that Limato is top
class and having been bet down from 10/1 to a best price 11/4 this week there clearly is a great
deal of confidence behind him. If he has come out of his race at Chantilly well, and he gets his
ground, which he may well do, he has to have a favourite’s chance. Thirteen days between races
isn’t a lot, but I can’t see Henry Candy running him if he wasn’t sure he was fit enough to win.
Good luck if you have a punt
October 12, 2016 at 10:09 #1266772many thanks bigG i hope he does turn up as the race will be fantastic with him in it. nearly all the top sprinters winner takes all brilliant
October 13, 2016 at 11:26 #1266861LIMATO out !!! 1.5 mm of rain on Wednesday and a further 2mm overnight have changed the
ground sufficiently for Henry Candy to decide he doesn’t run. This must be pretty grim
news for his followers who brought his price down from 10/1 to as low as 2/1 within 3
days this week.October 13, 2016 at 12:29 #1266863Commiserations to Limato backers.
The yard can still take this with Twilight Son and 8s with Betway looks big.
October 13, 2016 at 12:45 #1266864Limato AP backers need a medal if they kept with him this year after last. He caught me 3 times and i threw in the towel. What a rollercoaster of a ride they must of had.
I feel for you Limato backers, really i do
October 13, 2016 at 13:47 #1266867That’s a real pity that he is out.
I didn’t lose money, because I never do AP (may sound boring to you value punters),
but I would have backed him on the day.
Who would be the alternative?
I’m still positive on Quiet Reflection, but maybe I’m the only one?October 13, 2016 at 14:32 #1266871I think if Shalaa hadn’t been injured this year he would have been champion sprinter and would be odds-on favourite for this race. As is, his comeback was very impressive given the long layoff and ground conditions, and at the prices I would be keen to get involved. I won’t do anything until the day, but as long as I can get 5/1+ Shalaa is my selection.

I’m still positive on Quiet Reflection, but maybe I’m the only one?I doubt you’ll be the only one in here on Quiet Reflection HB, things have very much
come his way. I was originally most scared of Limato when I backed SIGNS OF BLESSING,
it looked at that time that the ground would be in his favour, but the weather Gods
have been good to Quiet Reflection and he is rightfully back at the head of the
market. Raymo is keen on him, and he knows his onions, so your in good company. I’m
still happy with SOB, he will handle softer conditions well, and I’m glad I topped up
with the 20s when the market was pushed out a bit with the Limato gamble. It’s a pity
Limato won’t be in the line up, but it still looks like a classy field. I’m really
looking forward to this one.October 13, 2016 at 15:47 #1266880It’s a shame that Limato won’t be running, always a risky AP proposition with him and the going and that’s why he was 10’s
I’ve got 14’s on Quiet Reflection before she won the Haydock race and it looks like the rain has arrived just in time for her. I make Meccas Angel a place lay, I don’t think the extra furlong will suit but we’ll see.Gaelic Warrior Gold Cup Winner 2026
October 13, 2016 at 16:25 #1266891I need to correct myself, I mentioned in my post to Hein Bollow above, in relation to
Quiet Reflection, that “Raymo is keen on him, and he knows his onions, so your in good
company.”. I did of course mean to say Nathan was keen on him, my apologies Nathan. The
14s you got looks huge now. Sorry about the mix up, another one of my senior moments
I should of course add that in correcting that, that Raymo is nonetheless another who knows his
onions. I maybe should get myself a bike and a French beret to go with the amount of onions I’m
rambling on about. I certainly don’t need a spade to dig myself any deeper

October 13, 2016 at 18:32 #1266901Thanks botchy, I had her at 8’s for the Haydock Sprint and She won at 7/2. I’ve done quite well this year in getting the prices but a lot have not turned up through setbacks or being re-routed and others got beaten. It’s one thing having the price but the hard part is getting the winner. QR seems very consistent and has been placed well and had decent gaps between races and I think that’s why she has had a good campaign.

I probably would have more success selling onions than tipping Raymo. I’ll put you down
down for a couple of kilos…..mates rates of course
