Great gamble lined up and landed today: four job horses (all obliged at 15/8, Evs, 8/15 and 8/11) and the decoy at 14/1 (only third of seven) entered at Bangor/Newcastle and then the honourable Christian Williams joined the party with a horse with no form priced up at 5/1 by the RP that easily obliged when stepped up in trip.
Tyson, the last leg of the gamble had form figures of 8th, 9th, PU and 5th, but won easily in the end.
They also hit DragonBet and PP for a five figure payout. Congratulations to a job well done, this is exactly what NH Racing is all about. Especially when lots of gamblers have to deal with affordability checks, the Skeltons just line up four penalty kicks.
I’m sure the BHA will be very….. Oh, they won’t even notice this.Palamon form figures: U69645
Coumeenoole form figures: 378953
Service Minimum form figures: 140747
Tyson form figures: 4889P5All of them very intelligent horses who knew the money was on, that’s why all won on the very same day.
I noticed Williams has been back amongst the winners recently. He had the winner of the rearranged 4 mile chase at Hexham last week. It looked like it had just jumped into the race on the approach to the last fence, while everything else that was still going was out on its feet. It must have been at least a stone well in.
Also took notice of that. I mean how in the world did he get the horse down to 98? Well, running it over shorter trips usually helps.
Not like other trainers don’t do the same thing: Sir Mark Prescott gets lauded for running horses over the wrong trip to get a handicap mark before running up a sequence with them.
Double standards are rife in the racing industry and media.

I think they all won because they were favourites therefore more likely to win.
People have a go when 300/1 shots win and then when 5 favourites come in people also have a go.
You can’t win.
‘I’m sure the BHA will be very….. Oh, they won’t even notice this.’
I see the BHA integrity department ordered an inquiry after Tyson’s win (fairly unusual) and the other winners on that day were all referred to the BHA for review. It’ll be interesting to see what the outcomes are.
For me it is unacceptable that this sort of VERY obvious manipulation of performances is allowed to take place. You can argue it is part of the puzzle and has always gone on, etc, etc, but in this case it was a big two fingers up to the authorities from a trainer with previous.
Nothing ‘genius’ about it either btw.
