    I like the look of Hellorboston in 3.35 Newb 5/1, he won well enough by 6L 8 days ago and still has that mark. He is stepping up which should suit he saw his win out well and was competitve in his point to points. Cheekpieces on again as they worked last time and his best form under rules seems to be with pieces.

    Only worry is the trainer!!

    I see Charlie Longston,s booked Davy Russell for 2 @ Doncaster.Might be worth an e/w double.

    Dundalk time again wohoo. So 2 weeks ago got 4 winners last week 2 places and if that was not bad enough tom stormed home at 20/1 after me slagging him off!!!!! So below find the 8 horses I plan on jinxing.

    17.35 Strategic Heights 3/1
    18.05 Maronella 5/2
    18.35Cutting Corners 12/1
    19.05 Tomorrow Morning 8/1
    19.35 Balmount Flyer 6/1
    20.05 Gold Tantrum 9/1
    20.35 Virile 4/1
    21.05 Saga Diamonds 13/2

    a .50 cent each way eightfold returns about €3225767.77. Gonna be a great weekend:D

    3:35 Newbury - Bandit Country, thrown into a handicap chase off his hurdles mark, and his bumper form suggests he's much better than a 118 rated horse.

    4:10 Newbury - Vif Argent, running off 2lb lower than when he won back in May at FfFos Las.

    might throw in Davey's two for a L15

    Good luck, but you do realise that bookies have a max payout? For the larger firms, the most they will ever payout is €1M - so you've basically given the bookie a free 36 cent :pac:

    Outsider of the day: one cool boy ew first at Doncaster


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 128 ✭✭ancapallliath


    my selections today

    Dundalk 5.35 Strategic Heights - high enough mark is the worry but I think should go in tonight

    Dundalk 9.05 Eye Of The Tiger - must go close with daughter jocked off and Ross onboard tonight

    Lingfield 2.20 Birkdale Boy - i backed this lto as headgear was applied again. stays on today and is unexposed. big price for proven in conditions

    Lingfield 3.25 The Green Ogre - this is very interesting returning from jumps. Tony Carroll has been in great form but I think this one could go very well and looks more suited by todays trip than the fav who ran over cd lto

    Newbury 2.30 Royal Vacation - of much interest now stepped up in trip. 6th in chelt bumper but disappointed in last bumper run. showed much better promise lto on hurdles debut (6th has won since). gets weight from the fav here today and looks great chance

    Doncaster 2.10 Nefyn Bay - attempting 4 timer today, returned quickly under a penalty. claimer who won 2 starts ago rides again today. still looks progressive and ahead of the handicapper.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,484 ✭✭✭Peintre Celebre


    Ended up taking a chance on General Bunching 7.35 Dundalk. Not sure this is the most competitive of races, would quite fancy Habesh if this was over 12 furlongs. Had a bit of 16/1 and a miniscule amount at 20/1. Fav is very strong but is opposable, two wins from 33 starts on the flat, he was just denied last time but got 4 lbs for it. At 5/2 he looks plenty short

    if Cristy's Call runs like he did the last night, he will take some beating. Poker Gold was hammered in the market on return from break time before and came on from that the last night. Asian Gold is a horse who has had loads of problems but was fancied the last night.
    in saying that, i find it hard to back hold up horses with much confidence at dundalk

    Agreed.

    Geraghty gone over early to ride one for johnny farrelly in the bumper at Newbury too. Only ride of the day.

    Could be a decent race though.



    EDIT: Looks like Aidan Coleman is riding the two at Doncaster instead of Davy

    So you are backing a horse blindly based on a jockey, it's not to dissimilar to what you pulled me up on yesterday( backing a horse based on name)
    I never got around to replying but here it go's my attention was drawn to the horse (Gerard's slip)because of its name, then I saw it's trainer and owners who are very respectable and it's pedigree which led me to taking a very small chance on him as you can always forgive a horse running badly first time out .
    I know in the OP it just said I backed it because of name but if it was trained by an unknown I wouldn't of backed it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,083 ✭✭✭Chesty08


    2.00 Newbury - Nefyn Bay - completed a hat-trick on Tuesday. Was nearly brought down, losing multiple lengths. Impressive winner and still well treated. 11/8


    3.00 Newbury - Village Vic - with Cody Wyoming now out of the race I fancy the well handicapped Village Vic to come out on top in what looks an open contest. I backed him last night before Cody being pulled.

    4.10 Newbury - Be Bop Boru - Reliable sort and hoping Dickie Johnson can fire in a double today!

    4.00 Lingfield - Squats - Backed him last night at 3/1 and see he is now 11/8 - so plenty of money for the Moore / Haggas combo

    The booking of a top jockey is an indicator that the horse is expected to run well, but promenco has good form behind a good mare of Alan Kings called Avispa also.I see Russell,s not now riding Sassanova.I,ve already apologised if I offended you for my earlier post.Poor attempt at humour & wasn,t having a go, I,ll take winner from any source but jockey bookings are something I watch closely.BTW i think Fran Berry who is always worth following at Dundalk will have a short priced double tonight and has 2 e/w shouts as well.

    I agree with following top jockeys, just the other day I mentioned ryan moore at lingfield to ride 1 horse.
    I never saw fran berry there tonight, will definetly look into it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 219 ✭✭shamdrog63


    Last flat season I tried to formulate a system of backing certain jockeys on their next 3 rides after they had run up a certain number of losers(varied for each jockey) and found some success but it needs more work.I found that Graham Lee, James Doyle and Ryan Moore were profitable and Lee in particular maybe due to riding for unfashionable trainers/horses at bigger prices and his occasionally riding doubles and trebles after a baron spell.

    Gave away about three furlongs wandering right and jumping right, God forbid the jockey would position him inside horses

    So far so good, i'll buy you a coke if this works out :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,172 ✭✭✭NaiveMelodies


    Trade marked in the 8.05 looks reasonably priced for me at 10s.
    Competitive enough race but has run well previously and will hopefully improve for the step up in trip. Nice bits of form that seem to have him well handicapped.
    Hasn't looked the most straightforward so Kevin Manning aboard is a positive.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,666 ✭✭✭Howjoe1


    All over Shabra in the next.

    Smullen for Ted Walsh there @ 12/1. You couldn't make it up. :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,907 ✭✭✭✭BorneTobyWilde


    Crecora 16-1 ew 8.05
    Consistent performer since Sep last year. Two runs here this year will
    be a help. I think it can get off the mark at Dundalk here tonight.

    Going strong on outside and eased a tad I think. no money on. Next time

    Coach Bombay 7/1 in the 8-05. Ran a nice race last time out finishing 3rd behind Pepperpot who ran well enough earlier on the card. Chris Hayes takes over tonight


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,554 ✭✭✭CH3OH


    What is the chance they let Joanna Morgan's horse Red Castle winthe next as it is her last runner??

    Edit 20:15......not a chance


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,907 ✭✭✭✭BorneTobyWilde


    Arizona Snow 40-1 ew 8.15
    Very weak race. Awkward leaving stalls last time out, but
    ran ok. Value for a place.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,907 ✭✭✭✭BorneTobyWilde


    Interpid Glory 16-1 win 8.35
    Kept on over 2m trip last time.
    I think it can go close here.
