Boredom bets.
- Thread starter tacker
- Start date
Yes, EP another one that's too short now; it's no 6/4 shot. I took 9/4 and struggled with taking even that but it's one I've been waiting for since the end of last year. Do you leave it and regret if it wins or take what you can get!
Yes, that and the fact that Alan King said he is "one we really like" (trainers often say that about their horses but I don't see King as one that 'shouts too loud' if you know what I mean). Very skinny price though, hence the double.
Those Derby quotes look like an over-reaction to me. Yes, he was impressive in the race, but what's the form worth; what kind of a 'Derby trial' was it!
Well yes! but he was on a mark of 92 yesterday and beat State Protector 107 by 5L who had previously run 2nd in the fielden, point being that in most years what we see is horses fancied for the derby tend to flop or not overly impress in the trials, either way drop out then such as MOHAAFETH look a little more likely to be in the mix. Who knows ?

Unlucky T tacker. What a finish!
Like the commentator said, the handicapper will be happy. None of them should go up much. I can see the winner going to Goodwood still in with a chance. Long time until then though. Still a Colt I see. Nice family.

Victoria Cup 3.40 Full Authority
50/1 general but could easily be a 3 figure price on the exchange as I've been matched at 90.0.
Lightly raced 4yo who returns after a 2nd wind op and has done the rounds with trainers; O'Meara to Stoute and now with Fahey.
Not sure what he achieved when winning at Chester on debut, but it was on soft and won by 5lths, from stall 3.
The trainer comment from that race is interesting:
The horse has never run at Ascot or been back on soft ground.
Whilst the horse has moved stables, it has remained with the same owner.
My gut says low numbers today and FA is in 21, but it's a wide open race and the price is appealling in my view.
The owner/ trainer combo also run Serious Intention later at Nottingham who I backed lto and intend to follow. Similar to FA, he's the stable 2nd string in the race.

Catterick 5.00 The Great Heir @ 8/1
Possibly regressive having not won since picking up a 150K sales race as a 2yo, but had the look of a non jigger to me lto, for debut run for Nicholl's, who seems to be in fair form.
Gets a further 1lb drop with a 3lb claim and does have decent soft ground form.

Never been a fan of Mark Johnston but i can see him having a good day tomorrow and had a little double on just the two.
bev 3.45 KEZAANA 11/4
The form of his last run is utterly confusing to me but can't help feeling a mark of 75 is too low.
bev 4.15 ALNAJEEB 2/1
The ponte race where this horse ran 3rd behind 2 gosden horses and had 2 stable companions further back is baffling to me at least, still a mark of 67 could be generous.
About 10/1 the double so worth a little punt.

First one one in well done i hope the 2nd goes on for you

I put this horse in my tracker after watching his last run where in my opinion he was given a very gentle ride.
7.15 newm MOVING TIME
Another one from my tracker that although beaten lto by MITHRAS there was 8L back to the 3rd, if progessed over the winter should be hard to beat.

3x doubles for very small stakes - 1/8pt in total
14:50 N - Untold Story 3/1
15:15 Y - Dubai Instinct 7/1
16:50 N - Al Madhar 5/1
US did just about everything wrong when winning at Ling in a fast time.
DI kept on strongly over C&D last time. Draw is a neg but must have a ch if reproducing that form.
AM won a strong Nby novice last year and looked on the way back at Che last time, wears blinkers here. Stablemate ( I backed last time) has been smashed overnight creating uncertainty. Hughes import was Fav, now a massive drifter, so looks a big price on French form.
