I had studied the race on Friday Placemat and
Tajneed
was quoted as only running if ground conditions were suitable!! Bearing in mind Tajneed performs better on the softer side of good.i was under the impression the ground was on the faster side of it!
Tajneed is a Ripon specialist and has beaten Abraham Lincoln from the 6 box this year so the draw wouldn"t have bothered me,his rating was 7lb higher yesterday and 3lb higher from last week but this was a weaker race so again he had to have every chance!My "Cockup" was thinking his stable companionSonny Red
was thrown in and being owned by the same connections as Tajneed would prefer the ground!I had every chance to back Tajneed who ticked plenty boxes and being someone who watches market forces could see he was a well supported favourite!A bad error of judgement i"m afraid on my behalf,thankfully i only had an interest bet of £16 on Sonny Red but i should have really had a good bet on the winner particularly after having a good chat with Trotter about him at Nottingham races the week before about his chances in the Great St Wilfrid!
It just goes to show TAPK is only human and not a Robot after all! I also left the race then I got a text telling me the spoiler in the race was a non runner, very late nr too.
so then I thought Tajneed was spot on.Ground drying out so the draw bias would shift back but not dry enough to stop him.I took 5’s.
The race the week before.Tajneed had it all in his favour except one thing 4-1 was a joke.I backed the winner really out of knowing that on his best day ,he could beat tajneed, plus the rest of the field had it all to do.Now, I’ve read a little about properly reading form to get a selection, and heard it’s the only real way to pick some good winners.
I’ve probably posted this in the wrong section but if any of the users who do ‘read form’ could give me a few pointers, or any help to start me off in trying to read form I would very much appreciate it.
Particularly any online help would be good, so I can start reading up straight away.
Thanks in advance.
The racing post is a great start but if you want to look at videos try the sporting life or attheraces(when it starts working again)
got no chance on here !! Although is a racing forum very little seems to be know by the majority , if they do know ,not much comes fourth unless they can get involved in a slagging match about tv presenters.
I haven"t really fancied
Sonny Red
since he won under Richard Hughes at Ascot last year off a mark of 96,tomorrow he runs off 92! This fellow was rated 108 when he was with R,Hannon and there comes a time when he has to get back into the winning groove if he retains any ability at all.Dandy knows when this ones time will come and i reckon its tomorrow at Ripon.I have had £10 at 28"s £3 at 23"s and £3 at 21"s just in case!
What a D*ck!I was convinced
Tajneed
wasn"t running and even though i could have filled my boots at 5/1 i never had a penny on him!Thats what happens sometimes!
?? he wasnt taken out so ran and never looked like losing. Im not quite sure what you mean.I took 5s today..
great days racing Saturday. So many good ones I cant pick a best bet.
Some great tipping of late, just gone through all your selections since you started, will you continue to post on here as I am not keen signing on with another bookies as I am very happy with Betfare.

bit optimistic.Did lead but took too much to get there.Never looked like trading at single figures.Passes the time though!!
645 wolves Not My Choice back it at 40s set the lay to 7s for in running then hold y breath !!
Its a possibility mate.
Personally I am on Equiano, so I would heartily recommend that everyone stays well clear of him, as I am having a terrible run at the moment, lolok will do
Id be worried Mr hills will go low like he did on face the problem.
