Today is much the same as it has been for the last few days, cold , miserable and cold but a bit of cold thrown in for good measure!, and the racing isnt much better , Forget Kempers today , its a bookies benefit day nonetheless we do have 5 qualifying races today , so lets take a look at these...
RACE 1
..This has to rest between COLOUR GUARD & PROFILE STORM , the 2 newcomers as those that have run look average or worse than average if either of these can run to around 65 they should win , my preference is for the MJ trained Colour Guard as Profile Storms Breeding does suggest that further may be better , the issue i have is , its a 4 yr old with training issues , however i feel that hes got it fit for a run then off to stud....with this in mind i still feel the dutch is the safest option.
Result :Boom!..Colour Guard wins Easy...
___________________________________________
RACE 2
..PLACE THAT FACE with the both beautiful and talented Hayley Turner riding should win this, has a fair level of form including a fast finishing 2nd lto and should be too sharp for any of the newcomers.
Result : 3rd - HIT 1.04 in the run!!
_____________________________________________
RACE 3
..An interesting race with some choicely bred newcomers namely , MAZARAK & FILATORE , however i feel that ROMAN GENERAL will put his experience to good use and finally get his head in front already racing from a mark of 73 ( which is fair ) one of these newcomers will have to be particularly smart to lower his colours today, but it must also be pointed out that this horse has been beaten at very short odds before ( well beaten 8/13f lto ) , so even tho i think it will win , i will in a rather contradictorily fashion LAY it if i can get a short enough price.
Result : Boom!! 2nd ;-)
______________________________________________
RACE 4
..This is quite a hard race to nail the winner as i have it down as being one of four , 2 x newcomers , Munificence & Halogen and 2 with experience , Captivity and TIME TO DANCE. I make the latter TTD the winner as he will be expected and really should improve past Captivity who himself has proved expensive and untrustworthy , but as i dont have any strong feelings between them i feel the safest option here is to LAY the likely Fav Captivity with a tissue of 10/11 i feel with potentially 3 or 4 others running for you this is the best play here.
Result : Wrong way round lol , nm.
______________________________________________
RACE 5
..To round the day off i think we should play it nice and safe and have a PLACE DUTCH ( GOLD BET ) with DISCOVERY & JOHNNY'S LEGACY , both have CD form and both coming very close to winning , this really should be theres as this actually looks no more than a low level NHF race tbh and i will be very surprised if one of these fails to hit the places , realistically one of these ought to be winning.
Result :Boom!! , 1st & 2nd

gone all winter wonderland! nice - all wet and drizzly here
ReplyDeleteWhite , Cold and Miserable here , hopefully will warm up after Sunday..But im Listening to Caro Emerald to cheer me up..
ReplyDeleteI've found doing my selections is far easier when I've decided not to bet today!
ReplyDeleteHas to get really cold for Gloucester to get snow on account of proximity to the Bristol Channel.
Thanks for the music tips too! She's got some good tunes. I definitely enjoy that brand of latin+rhumba/salsa/tango+hip hop meets diva combination.
Shudda just lumped on the Info..job done ;-@@
Deleteright you are (as usual!!!) pleased to see Kalahari do it for you earlier - like seeing those Boom!!!! anyway I earned some pounds today doing some work that needed doing and wasn't going to go away without some effort so all is well - just checked my paper selections so far - place backs are pretty sound, first two place lays placed - think the place lay strategy won't work in the short term - it may well in the long term, but that's perhaps something for me to look at later for fun - so place backs are still emerging as a strength - have a good weekend Clint - I'm sure you will! back on Monday
ReplyDeleteCheers Mate, you 2 ;-)
DeleteI've heard so many BOOMS!! I keep thinking there's a bittern running lose. Looks a great day, Clint. That is what I like to see.
ReplyDeleteWell done.
Kind regards,
Jason
