    Have backed 2 in the Lincon tomorrow that looked overpriced. Thought I posted this a while ago but no sign of the thread.

    Ocean tempest won this two years ago off 102 then went on to win of 115. Runs off 99 tomorrow and 25/1 looks big 1 pt ew

    Sirus Prospect is a horse I always liked very consistent. Backed him last year when third in this off 106. Runs off 101 tomorrow and 50/1 looks very big. Should be half that. 1 pt ew.

    Surely the old boy Maarek is the bet of the day in the 3:20 at Donny? Not the same horse as of old, but this fella has been competitive dropping into listed company quite recently. I don't see anything with anything near the ability as this except O'Meara's latest addition from France.

    I have been outside all evening bollox naked doing a rain dance.

    The first race at Donny will be a great indicator as to who has a favourable draw and i will wait and see how that pans out before making my decision.
    In the meantime ive narrowed it down to one from each end of the draw

    MAN OF HARLECH drawn 3
    SECRET BRIEF drawn 22

    If he is ready to run he wins here, he hasnt had runs on soft for ages.

    Apparently raining most of the night in Donny. Was always gonna do Jack Dexter but just seen that Ryan Moore is aboard so Im even more confident! Great E/W bet.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,107 ✭✭✭HarshOstrich


    Kelso 3.25
    Just Cameron @ 10/3

    Should really win this as is receiving 8 pound from simply ned and his form is better than the rest in the race.ran better than expected in champion chase as he was the outsider of the field and finished 6th.
    In his last handicap he was beaten by grand annual runner up dandridge by about 5 lengths but he was giving away nearly 2 stone in weight that day.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,370 ✭✭✭rossom


    I love Maarek but he's a hard horse to get fit so I'd say he'll certainly be sharper for the run.

    Some amount of racing today

    Been given 2 Mark Johnston horses
    Dusker 1.55 Kempton
    The Last Lion 4.30 Doncaster

    Also been told Tipped up Harry is fancied in the 5.15 Navan, said to be flying at home

    Best of luck

    being described as bottomless! Surely has to be positive for Maarek and Jack Dexter.

    In fairness they've just gotten F1 so they're not going to show a sport they wont have very soon over one they have just started broadcasting

    Blundered 3 out and nearly unseated then stayed on well again for 3rd
    No doubt he would of won in my mind

    Great picks ! PP paid 5 places so both were winners.

    Sure after 2017, they'll only have one day a year for the British GP so they won't have too much of it then.

    The best very best pointer I've seen in a long time is Calling Des Blind he is a superstar imo.

    That Nicky Henderson bumper winner, Jenkins looked fairly impressive there. Didnt even come off the bridle.

    Two out of three ain't bad as old fat boy used to say

    Nice picking there, thought Robbie power gave tipped up harry a great ride, I assume the way he rode it, it doesn't want to be in front to soon, got it up perfectly.

    Advised at 6/1 last year Air Force Blue have every penny on at 1/1 .This is the best 1/1 shot ever.

    That's a very bold statement if you don't mind me saying

    There are 4 weeks to the 2000 Guineas and lots can happen and lots of even money shots before then

    From memory Zafonic was evs on the day and Frankel was odds against prior to the Greenham

    So the best 1/1 shot ever?

    Time will tell

    In case your wondering I would be a layer at this stage

    Well the superstar got his hole kicked, beaten out of sight in a 3 runner bumper .

    Best to wait for the day. Doing antepost at 1/1 is not a good idea.
