Return of the Wealth Warning

[Nathan Hughes]

I’ve put my freebet on a double for tomorrow
Been waiting for Zabeel Champion to step up to 12f being a Johnston horse and lightly raced I’m sure he’ll be fine over the trip. Nayef Road has run into Stradivarius the last twice and put in fair efforts he has Enbihaar to deal with this time around but he should certainly test that ones stamina over the trip imo

7/4 Zabeel Champion

Really like Zabeel Champion Nath, hope he gets you off to a good start. Too short for me though tomorrow.

Unlucky with Sacred today. Was willing her home for you after my rags were beat (think it was after they went a furlong), but she just bumped into one.

Aidan keeping Snowfall at 7f and also against the horse that smashed her LTO.
Perhaps he feels she didn’t run her race the last time. at 12’s I’ll have a bash

12/1 Snowfall Debutante Stakes £10.00

Well good early signs, I’ve got the price for Snowfall at present 6’s now and 4’s with Skybet who I got the 12’s with. She was slowly away last time at Leopardstown. The Curragh is a stiffer track and that will help her. Mother Earth looks quick enough to be stepping up to the 7f.

No excuses this time for Snowfall
she was out lovely and looked to be in with a great chance but faded very tamely
I was very taken in the maiden with Wordsworth a full brother to Kew Gardens, on that pedigree you’d think he’ll have plenty to come thoughtout the years and stayed on fairly well as looked to be in trouble a fair way back.

I’ve been waiting for Etonian to come out again
this is a big step up in class from his debut but he was super impressive

One Ruler won earlier today a horse Etonian beat on debut, the vibes are good..

Etonian returned £85.00 in total

Wonder where Hannon will target him next..
Looks pacey enough but may get a mile next year
edit – Just said the French group 1 race on Arc day as a possible target

Nice win by Etonian he worked for it but was flying at the finish.
Julia Woods got a nice one there and possible Guineas winner.

Getting back on track with that extra bet keep going. Jac

Things turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...

[Nathan Hughes]

She impressed last time
the going is a bit of an unknown but that has helped hold the price up

15/8 POMELO Prestige £15.00

-£75.00

Desert Encounter is pretty versatile regard going.
His form figures are a bit all over the place but has ran in some hot races, this looks much more winnable

16/5 DESERT ENCOUNTER 2.40 Windsor £5.00

-£80.00

Waliyak has run well in higher grade races without winning but was always well fancied in the market.
I’m taking her consistency over potential improvers.

13/8 WALIYAK 2.10 Lingfield £15.00

-£95.00

edit – typo on the price

WALIYAK returned £39.38

I’m keeping an eye on the prices for Timescale at Salisbury tomorrow
just William Hill to stick up at the moment at 5/2
the weather could play a part as she doesn’t want it too soft and currently good – good to soft in places
Happy Romance is in the field so I think I’d want a bit more than the current price

-£55.62

Well done with Waliyak Nathan..

[Nathan Hughes]

Thanks Jac,
I’m out and about early tomorrow so have stuck a bit on Timescale now, was hoping for 3’s but at least the going is now good all round apparently.
