All over Franklino in the first at Kempton tomorrow.

About to throw the laptop out the window. Internet acting the prick, I see PP go 6/1, I had him down at about 4/1. It lasted about 4 minutes, internet goes down, by the time I ring PP I get 5/1. Fuming.

Johner

Champion Court deserves a nice confidence boosting win tomorrow.

3ndahalfof6

Thundering home and manshoor should go close me thinks, tough race to call, that is all.

UrbanSea

Be disappointing if he couldn't take advantage of a mark of 104 considering he was the favourite for the Triumph before he even ran in England. Local Hero is rated in the 150's who he finished runner up to before. Ran well coming back from a long break last time out and is down 2 lbs for that

Backstreet Moyes

What about Master Malt in the last. 2nd beaten a length first time out by River Maigue. Bought by JP Mcmanus after that and McCoy on him tomorrow.

UrbanSea

I saw that. Wonder how fit he is, hasn't ran since April

El Ninotorres

Balmont Flyer in the 7.50 in Dundalk is worth a pop. PP had a price up last night of 11/4 but no price available now.

Master Malt the pick of the day for me too Nuts.
Ran River Maguire very close last April. River Maguire one of the leading group behind Jezki for the Supreme Novice, and ran Dodging Bullets close in a Grade 2 Novice Hurdle at Cheltenham.

Switched to JohnJo when McManus bought him.
I expected to see him sooner, but even with the 10 month absense Evens is worth grabbing IMO.
25/1 for the Champion Bumper could disappear quickly too should he win easy.

2.34 on Betfair

Will have a small punt on Superciliary in the first at Kempton today. Met the owner at Sandown the day before the Tingle Creek (I "accidentally" snaffled his pint, but I'm blaming Colonel Sanders for that ), nice bloke, he said they were going to get the horse handicapped first then make an effort with him. He's had his 3 runs now, 2 on heavy and one on soft, first time in a handicap today only carrying 10-3 on the best ground he'll have faced over jumps, I can see him finishing a poor third for my e/w money.... I agree with Rossom though, Franklino looks like the most likely winner in that race...

UrbanSea

Horse is absolutely friendless in the market.


Here's a question: If I back a horse at 5/1 and a horse at 4/1 is withdrawn, but my horse goes off a bigger price, do I get the bigger price without a rule 4? I wasn't sure but got it once before

UrbanSea

Jesus Franklino is a donkey. Imagine people backed him into Triumph favouritism before he even ran.

sting60

Dundalk 8.20 Daytime Dreamer 12/1.Backed last time out but never in with a shout under 7lb claimer.

Nulty

If that last race at Newcastle was a flat race there would be an inquiry. Winning jock clearly cut off the second.

he was piss poor today alright Richie.
The stable is in shocking form though, 6 winners from 53 entries over the last month. 2 of those winners were odds on running against poor enough opposition.

I like zelkova island in the next with Mccoy up.

Imagine people are still backing him, even now!!:):)

Nulty

I just got an email from horsetracker telling me Franklino finished 7th....never backed the horse. I really need to clean that tracker out.

Big difference in the triumph and a handicap off 104 :cool:

El Ninotorres

Terrible from Pete the Feet.

Possibly a bit late. But got a small word for buccaneer bob in the 8.20. Price is a bit skinny now but still almost 2/1 on betfair..

Weak enough on Betfair having being backed early

Ya he was probably a tad to short anyway so not surprised he is back out. Back him at 3.5 earlier. Support for the second fav. A certain amount of luck is involved anyway at this basement level. We shall see.

Looking at Kempton results today, the following horses traded at below evens today and were beaten:

Star Of Massini 1.57
Thundering Home 1.67

Uxizandre 1.91

Hatters River 1.43

Champion Court 1.33 (but his Betfair SP was 1.47 so that was a given)

Storming Gale 1.32

Master Malt 1.55

There was also a plethora of horses matched at 2.5 and lower and turned over

kiers47

Every chance turning in. Just not good enough.
I hardly ever bet in these ****e handicaps. The horses are so inconsistent and half of them are being pulled for a big punt.
