Saturday

scojones

Ok, so we have two threads going for Saturday already, but we don't have one for Saturday's selections which is why I am creating this thread. Everything I say here will probably come back to haunt me, but I'll give it a go anyway.

4.10 Ayr ALWAYS BAILEYS
Sciatin is currently trading at 6/4, and I think this is an absolutely ridiculous price. McEvoy is on it today, J P Spencer was on it last time when it finished second in a Class 3. Now if you ask me, Spencer is a much better Jockey than McEvoy (we can keep that argument for another thread ) and if Spencer couldn't get Sciatin to perform on that day, I don't think McEvoy can.
Johnston has two horses in this race, Always Baileys and Supreme Charter. It is very hard to seperate these two horses, both of them ran in the same race last time out, 14 days ago, when they finished 2,3 with Always Baileys in second and Supreme Charter in third. This race is definately theirs, Today I'm going with Always Baileys, although don't be surprized if Supreme Charter does it as it is carrying less than Always Baileys. Always Bailieys has already beaten Zennerman by a country mile, and has beaten Ocean's Pride.This race is definately theirs for the taking. Sciatin is a false favourite.

5.15 Ayr BOLLIN THOMAS
Golden Boot should win this race, but Bollin Thomas owes me a few quid and he's going to give it back to me today. He had a superb race two races ago, winning a class 3 1m4f handicap race at 33/1. Last time out it weakend inside the final two furlongs in a similar race, something happend it that day and I'm not quite sure what it was, but I'm willing to wipe the slate and forgive it providing it does good here today. I'm going each way on it, and if it gets anything less than second it might just end up in Lidl or McDonalds if I get my hands on it

2.45 Newbury SIR XAAR
Very impressive last time out winning a class 1 listed, over 6f. Robinson did the business on it that day, and he comes here on it again today. I get the feeling that there is alot in this horse for all to see in the future. I watched Cool Creek very closely in it's last race, and my thoughts were "Just not good enough". If there is anyone in this pack who can beat Cool Creek, it's SIR XAAR, I think Frankie has too much to do on MISU BOND today.

3.55 Newbury MAJESTIC MISSILE
J P Spencer on board, this horse hasn't finished out of the top 4 in it's last five races, three of those were Class 1 5f races. This is a Group 3 class 1 6f with Spencer on board? Nothing more needed to back it up.

If I get more time I will post more selections, but I'm moving house today so I'm up the walls. There should be at least 2 winners in these selections.

Catspraddle in the next at Ayr has a huge chance...I've backed him twice and he's been pulled out twice....nice each way chance

EDIT: Should have pulled him out of this too

SIR XAAR ran a cracker, led with 1f to go but Cool Creek just nicked it from him. Cool Creek must have just under-performed last time out. Very unlucky

Well what can I say, another second place. The result may have been different if there wasn't a ten minute delay due to MAJESTIC's tongue tie, he got very upset when they were tried to attach it before the race, even Jamie had to lend a hand. Who knows, it may have been different if that hadn't have happend, but you can't take anything away from The Tatling's victory.

I was on Majestic Missile again today also. I think the delay and everybody crowding around him kinda messed him up a bit. Ah well, will still be on him next time again anyway.

Nothing today, bad form outa me. two second places, once that happend I knew it was a bad day, they were the two I was most confident about. I didn't watch the other races, does anyone know how Scaitin ran?
