Good luck jack, yeah a good moving laying some back, could find the improvement needed, the ballydoyle lot usually somehow do…..one of my worst tracks from a betting perspective, stall bias tracks i always end up on the wrong one lol

May 10, 2018 at 21:17 #1353584Ascot 8.10 Highlight reel @ 11/1 1 point e/w Was very keen on the formline last season, his newcastle 3rd was a race i kept my eye on, hoping he is somewhat ready to go today.
1.50 chester South seas @ 12/1 1 point Gelded, group 3 winner, no prep but this looks like a nice starting point, one to keep an eye on.
2.25 chester Forest ranger @ 6/1 1 point Cant believe how short eminent is tomorrow, fully entitled on best form to win, but FTO against a field thats all had a prep, hes going to have to run to 110+ atleast FTO to win…..
3.30 chester My reward @ 15s 1 point e/w & fun mac @ 14s 1 point e/w Couldnt split them so opted for 2

May 11, 2018 at 21:30 #1353630Forest ranger winning and fun pac 2nd made for not to bad a day, a tad unlucky with highlight reel, travelling really well and just got a bit tired, as i said, hes one to keep an eye on he will pop up in one at a price
3.10 haydock Sizing granite 2 points e/w @ 12/1 Looks to have more to offer, mark may underestimate him
3.40 lingfield Tajaanus 2 points e/w @ 7/1 Was keen on her last year and she looked pretty smart on reappearence, looks like she has more to come.
2.35 haydock Bedrock 2 points @ 11/4 Well in on hurdles mark, although, hasnt shown as much over the flat, im still hopeful he will be good enough in one of these

May 12, 2018 at 17:15 #13537772.05 leopardstown Conclusion @ 5/2 5 points As i had said on previous threads he was one i herd good things about and i dont think we have seen the best of him, getting better ground tomorrow, if he doesnt trounce this lot ill be disappointed.
French 2000 guineas Us navy flag @ 12/1 1 point e/w Will only run if he gets his ground, has plenty of negatives coming into this, but hes by far the best of these on form albeit because hes had more races, but hard to get away from at the price. Dice roll should run well should the rain come and i may back him if usnf is w/d
French 1000 guineas Barkaa 1 point @ 5/1 Not the most inspiring of races. She was impressive lto

May 14, 2018 at 18:39 #1353917Conclusion broke my heart a little yesterday getting beat a nose lol, still wont be giving up on him yet!
The derby picture is all shaped towards saxon warrior atm and hes pretty short, ill take a few stabs this week before the trial Roaring lion @ 60s 1 point & wells farhh go @ 50/1 1 point With the trials coming up this week youd hope one of them will show well and cant be the current price should one win impressively, i think their both slightly forgotten about, roaring lion clearly not a miler, thought that was an excellent run in the guineas considering & WFG looked promising last season. Wouldnt be surprised if james cook came out and won the dante and hes tempting @ 100s.

Have to take on harry angel, definitely the best of these, but giving weight to brando, who was usually the one giving weight to HA last season and wasnt that far away, hes entitled to be a lot closer this time getting 5lbs with already having a run under his belt, hes a cracking bet.
Brando 9/2 3 points

May 16, 2018 at 09:14 #1353982I can see the reasoning Ham…
HA might be over enthusiastic today as well. worth ago.

Hindsight is 20/20 so make the most of it!May 16, 2018 at 11:09 #1353992On further looking Ham- his York form doesn’t seem to be up to much at all.
I would take a stab at Sir Dancealot- not at all in HA’s league, but potential for a surprise in this small field.

Hindsight is 20/20 so make the most of it!May 16, 2018 at 13:19 #1354010I get the form at york angle but it doesnt worry me to much, hes won their before, have to take these shorties on though like i had said about eminent (albeit he pulled up wrong) but FTO giving 5lbs in a sprint to a race fit rival, who if he runs to his or of 114, harry angel will have to run to atleast 120 FTO because of the weight advantage, tough ask for any horse, not impossible, but im not sure it warrants 4/9, but then again he only has two real rivals to worry about should brando and SD run below form then he could very well just piss up.
Good luck with SD jack
May 16, 2018 at 21:41 #1354040Harry angel impressive enough eh? Id say that was a fair performance FTO
York 2.10 Poyle vinnie 12/1 1 point e/w

May 16, 2018 at 22:00 #1354043Very impressive i’d say!!
Both our selections will continue to win decent races, just not in the same league!Twitter: Jackh1092

Id say the 60s is long gone and the step up in distance will see him a hell of alot closer to SW, happy enough with that run there.
May 17, 2018 at 20:30 #13541094.25 newmarket Wadilsafa 4 points @ 7/2
Two frankel colts who finished 1 & 2 in a race were 3rd has went on to be a 103 rated horse, id say these two could be pretty decent, allbeit herculean had the beating of wadilsafa that day, hes having to give him 7lbs today which ill be more than shocked if it isnt enough to shift the balance in wadilsafas favour, burrows horses in decent form of late and charlton making his usual slow start, could be a fair bit closer price wise come the off tomorrow as the betting should be alot closer under these circumstances

Empire state @ 9/4 3 points Opened at around evs, which was a bit short for me to back, but in reality hes probably around an evs shot to win, as with all the AOB horses, the step up from 1st run to 2nd is usually significant, the ger lyons crop usually show there hand FTO

May 18, 2018 at 17:48 #1354212Happy with wadilsafa, was a good performance, herculean by charlton will be a slow to come right but he will eventually, but empire state , urgh, frustrating. Happy with the win though.
May 19, 2018 at 00:00 #13542707.50 doncaster Foxtrot lady @ 4/1 2 points Relatively exposed, but comeback run was decent and she should be fit enough to win this, false fav for me, FTO and stepped up in trip, still an unknown for equilateral not to mention hes giving almost a stone in weight away…
5.20 navan Raptures delight @ around 4.4 combined 4 points Was well looked after by donnacha on debut, wont have to step forward much to win this and the price variation from exchanges to bookies is massive atm, not sure what way it will go when theres liquidity in the market, but alot shorter than 4.4 would be my guess…
3.40 newb Lightning spear 1 point e/w @ 20/1 (4 places) & zonderland 1 point e/w @ 33/1 (4 places)
Rhododendron is the likely winner for me, if running anything like the form she was in at del mar i think she will probably win, but shes relatively short in a big field and the two ive backed will both like the trip/ground lightning spear usually runs well FTO and i dont think zonderland has ever been seen to full effect, although this is a big ask FTO
