In regards to BF it doesnt matter how much is laid or looking to be laid it will just count as a NR, had no chance imo anyway.
Maraahel looks another good thing to pick up his 3rd Huxley in 3 years and Soldier of Fortune should prove far too strong for his Chester Vase opponents. Stoute will pick up the maiden with Al Tharib on Thursday in the last race.
Never have been a fan of the meeting in much of a betting view but it isnt the worst spectacle in the world. Its Dissapointing that David Evans horse doesnt go in the first and as far as i believe Grafton Street doesnt run in the Cup. Dark Angel is no price but he is a good thing tomorrow and is more a 1/4 shot than the 2/5 currently on BF. Barry Likes to win this race and he really should.
Did Ladbrokes not stand Teofilio at 5/2 when everyone else was back to 2/1 after the scare?

I do think Havlin wasnt to heavy handed on him inside the final furlong but was Shavanksy not also bet form 33s to 20s?<br>Ok obviously it wouldn’t take as much to move the market from 33s as it would from 7/2 to 2s. Madman no offence but you talk a bit like a BF forum regular.
Richard Hughes looks good winning on good things imo, Jamie Spencer is a top jock and can balance and settle a horse like i have never seen. Richard Hills is ok but Martin Dwyer is better and shud be the No.1 jock to Hamdan. Thing that annoys me about Hughes so much is he gives uo the ghost quickly and doesnt try his hardest at times to gain the best ultimate placing.
95% of stoute runners are too short in the betting for what ability they actually have. Look at any maiden over the next couple of months if Stoute has 1 in it then it’ll sure to be in the top 3 in the betting. If a trainer with less of a Rep had of won the Craven with Adagio they wudda been a 10/1 shot imo and this is why you tend to get Stoute drifts from time to time because layers realise when the horse is too short and is goin on hype more than ability.
I very much doubt that performance today would see him even placed in the Irish Guineas, He beat Napper Tandy who is rated 91 and Napper Tandy was beaten a head by Manaal who was beat the other day of 80. Alexander Tango is possibly the most reliable yardstick and she didnt run her race and was in a bad position anyway. Doubt he wudda been in the top 10 on sat with the win today.
Looks a bit like a Heliostatic of last season can pick up a Group 3 or Listed but once he goes higher he just isnt good enough.
Would she have stayed in the Oaks if she hadv’e been entered? I think she would of got the trip but she may be better over 1m 2. I wonder how she would fare against Attraction as a 3yo, Soviet as a 4yo and Russian Rhythm as a 3yo.
Hmm… shows why Miss Beatrix was the price she was, very nice performance by Finsceal Beo and how many owners can say they won an Aintree Hurdle and english 1000 guineas in the same season?
I cant understand why Miss Beatrix is so big? clearly the 2nd best form in the race with her last 2 runs. Regime also franked her form bigtime last week. Miss Beatrix a win and place bet for me.
Looks like Lyons has a very decent animal on his hands Trackside in Remind me Monday.
If you want to see a "steering Job" have a look at Black Oval 22nd Jan on ATR replay.
Was there not a race at Galway 2 years ago that went about 6 mins early?
Correct decision is made now imo to not void the race. There was a good few in my local who raced to the hole to bet the fav and got on after 2 furlongs and then when it was beat they were crying for void race, talk about looking for best of both worlds.
