Fancies For Today III

Sorry Chancer, I was looking at that one and I would have considered a place-lay if I was an online punter

Went for a couple of small each ways on Hepijeu and Anteros

talkin' about place-lays :pac: :pac:

I think I'll have to allow for deteriorating going across the pond for a few for tomorrow. Hard to make a decision when conditions underfoot are unknown. Musselburgh is good - good to firm supposedly. I'm going to 'assume' it's no better than good so and make selections on that basis.

I'll hopefully have some confidence to find one or two later on or tomorrow.

Will take a chance on UNIVERSAL GLEAM e/w in the upcoming 5.20 at York at 28/1.

Had a look at the racecards and picked out a few for tomorrow/today/later on - whatever
Currently Soft is in the going descriptions, best as I can tell, in two out of the three meetings I'm having a punt. Musselburgh currently good - good to firm in places, and I'm hoping that will have eased to good as I factored in some rain up north.

Anyway, these are my darts. I'll be hoping a few can at least give me a run for my money.

Newmarket

12.45 BREATHLESS TIMES 16/1 PP
Mainly been campaigned on the all weather. First run a few weeks ago after an absence over the 5f trip, same distance as race here. Hoping it's unexposed. Oisin Murphy gets the leg up for the first time here.
Each way bet for me.

Market Rasen

12.00 BEAR VALLEY 9/1 PP/Boyles
Just the two runs over the sticks and seems to be improving. Had a spin on the flat at Doncaster 2 weeks ago over a similarish trip. Ran well and should be fit at least.
Each way here.

2.05 FIESOLE 9/1 PP
Hoping the cheekpieces spark a revival. Johnson up.
Each way

2.40 SAN BENEDETO 9/1 PP/Boyles
finished 6th over C&D in October with an inexperienced jockey on board. Race was ran in a good time. Bryony Frodon:p takes the mount.
Each way

Same race COPPER WEST 14/1 PP
Won that race in October where the other selection came 6th. Hoping the form stacks up.
Each way bet.

Musselburgh

3.25 EXCESSABLE 8/1 PP/Boyles
Goes well at course. Dropping down the weights.
No surprise- another each way.

4.00 DONNELLY'S RAINBOW 16/1 PP/Boyles
Conditions should be ideal for this one to give a good account.
Again each way.

4.35 NAPLES BAY 18/1 PP
Not without a chance here, may need to settle to get the 7 and a bit furlongs,
Each way

Same race, same trainer ROBBEN RAINBOW 18/1 PP/Boyles
Bit hit and miss this one. Hopefully a hit today. First time blinkers.
Yep, Each way an all.

5.05 Bit annoyed with myself - I've gone for three here.
CAPTAIN CORELLI 6/1 PP/Boyles
Last two runs at Wolves give him a chance.
Each way

GWEEDORE 10/1 Boyles
Should go well with a clear run.
Each way

NOBBY NUTS 5/1 PP/Boyles
Ran ok here last time.
Backed win only here. Don't want to go overboard in the one race.

5.40 SEA ART 11/2 PP/Boyles
I think the favourite is worth taking on and I've sided with this one. Might win or come nowhere.
Win only bet here.

Might be bigger in other bookies but I've selected the shops that are available for me to back in. Don't see any prices from Ladbrokes on the price comparison site.

Only gone for smallish stakes. Hopefully can have a good day.

Gluck


EDIT If I had to pick one out of the lot of them as a NAP it would be DONNELLY'S RAINBOW in the 4.00 Muss. as I feel he ticks all the boxes - C&D
winner, has also ran well many times over Course and Distance without winning but filling one of the places, has a very good chance of making the frame here or even winning, is a big price and a value one (value is paramount to some folks) - well every box apart from current form else he wouldn't be available at 16s... Giddy up!

Had a look at Newmarket and only gave it a cursory glance; picked 1 there in the 12.45 and it's a Non runner (Breathless Times in the 12.45). Only 1 out of all I picked that doesn't take any part today, so not too bad

Looking again today there's one that is a sporting each way bet and that is SHAILENE in the 3.00.

Soft ground and the distance - 1m6f - are both of concern, but the horse is a course winner, has only had the one run on bona fide soft ground and is fairly priced at 22/1 with Oisin on board, and I feel this one is worth an each way tilt albeit for minimal stakes.

leffesem have a look at the haggas horse Grandrock 335 I think it might win under the hands of PCB essential travel maybe for PCB from France to Newmarket?? He also rides a few tomorrow best chance Russianvirtue

Yes indeed that Grand Rock is very interesting pottokblue. He's still an entire, and his comeback run was interesting - he went all the way from the front, most of his other races he took a lead, or was held up; almost as if Willie wanted to get him cherry ripe for another day :P

He's 7/1 to back, which is decent for an each way bet. However, I would just have the win on him myself as not fully sure he'll stay the 10f's. I would be very happy to back him win only, but sadly I have no online account and am not near a bookies atm.

I hope he romps home for ya

I haven't looked at tomorrow's cards at all yet - will check out that Russian Virtue for sure.
