    4:15 Thirsk

    A Fairly straightforward pick here is Gramercy. He ran well last time at Chester on his reappearance travelling well and probably not staying in the soft ground over 7 furlongs. Of this mark he is well capable of taking this race. He should strip fitter here and 20/1 with paddy power is a standout price that won’t last long

    1 Point EW 20/1 Paddy Power

    3:45 Newbury

    I can’t remember a worse 1mile group 1 on decent ground. There isn’t 1 standout horse in this and I can’t have the favourite at the prices. It’s fairly clear that there is nothing between the top 4 in the betting but Toormore looks the definite value here. He won well on his debut last year and I’m pretty sure he’ll be ready for this. There shouldn’t be much in price between him and the fav Night of Thunder on last year’s runs. I’m also going to have a small saver bet on Cougar Mountain simply because he is the choice of the yard to go for this and his first run can be ignored. 25/1 is too big.

    1 Point win Toormore 9/1 Various
    ½ Point win Cougar Mountain 25/1 Various

    Ladbrokes are 25/1 with 4 places and 1/4 odds on the Lockinge...

    Newmarket 2:15

    Chiberta King
    has been pretty poor on the AW lately but his turf form around here particularly is very strong and if he can recapture any of that at all he stands a decent chance here at a big price. It’s also possible he needs a bit further but that’s a risk worth taking at 20/1

    ½ Point Win 20/1 Various

    Auteuil 2:08

    Willie Mullins has an unbelievable record in these races when he sends them over and my gut feeling is the market has the wrong one from him today. Gitane Du Berlais looks a soft ground horse and her record around here is decent but not great enough to be very short here, especially on good ground. I do like the look of his other runner Val DE Ferbet who although jumped poor last time out, has some very decent form and has Ruby on board today. 9/1 looks a few points too big

    1 Point win 9/1 Generally Val DE Ferbet

    Had him too, praying for a return to 2013. Not a terrible run.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,473 ✭✭✭longshotvalue


    Gramercy placed 3rd.. Probably a deduction fro the 20/1 advised as there was a few non runners.

    A fair bit of hitting the goalpost today..:rolleyes:


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,473 ✭✭✭longshotvalue


    Navan 3:20

    I’m going for a small bet for a bit on interest on an otherwise poor enough Sunday. Shipyard was supported last time out and didn’t perform but the slightly better ground here and 5 Furlongs should suit him judging by his very good big field performances at the Curragh last year of higher marks than this. 12/1 with Boyles is just about a big enough price for a bet.

    1 Point win 12/1 Boyles 11/1 elsewhere

    Haydock 2:00

    Suegigo
    looked a stayer on the up in the Chester Cup and Northumberland place last year and had another few decent runs after of a higher mark than this. He had a reasonable seasonal opener over a trip too short and then disappointed the Chester Cup, but that race is a lottery at the best of times and he never got involved. I think he can show his true form here of this trip and looks a big price at 16/1. I’m also going with and old favourite of mine in Ill De Re who should come on from his first run this year and hasn’t run over this trip enough in the last year or so. There is a few bits of hope in some of those run while he has plummeted in the handicap and I wouldn’t be surprised if there was going to be a step up today. 50/1 looks superb value

    1 Point win Suegioo 16/1 Various

    1 Point EW 50/1 Ill De Re VC / Ladbrokes/Betfair


    Haydock 3:45

    Very easy pick here in Jack Dexter. There is nothing between a lot of these and in that case the best value easily is Jack at 18/1. He ran right up to form last time out and with a bit of cut in the ground here he won’t be far away. He generally runs over 6 furlongs but has a couple of very good runs in the Kings Stand to prove his Speed. He is around a 10/1 shot here really so 18/1 is a bargain.

    1 Point win 18/1 VCBET


    Goodwood 4:05

    Grumeti
    gave a decent account of himself last time out on the flat over what was probably too short a trip on very fast ground. Today’s trip over 2 Furlongs further and on Good ground will bring him right into the action in what looks a weak enough affair for such a decent pot. He is 4lbs better of with the fav here on their last run and over this trip that indicates to me there won’t be much between them today. There is way too much of a difference in price here so the 12/1 about the selection is value.

    1 Point win 12/1 Generally

    Haydock 4:20

    I thought to myself that’s the boat missed when my selection Gramercy just failed last week at 20/1, but I think he is value again here as the softer ground today will definitely suit him and he is surly on a good mark still.

    1 Point win 12/1 Generally

    Curragh 4:45

    I’m afraid the price of Sole Power has gone past the point of lunacy. The fact that he is better at 5 furlongs is probably not in doubt but in fairness he hasn’t run that much at 6 and with his luck required in running in those group 1 sprints with big fields he has done ok. His 4 th in the Betfred Sprint Cup last year was a top class performance and he is possibly the only horse who could have got that close from the position he was in 2 furlongs out. Literally nothing went right and he stayed on as if the trip was certainly no problem. In this small field on decent ground I’m scratching my head at 5/1 especially after a top class performance in Dubai. He doesn’t even need to be at his best to stand a great chance here. Gordon Lord Byron obviously has the form to beat him at this trip but it’s his first run this year.

    2 Points win 5/1 Bet365/Totesport/Fred

    Great pick but can't blame the other horses, always taking the risk when taking that route. Another few yards and he had it.

    Curragh 3:20

    I think the market is wrong here with the difference between Al Kazeem and The Grey Gatsby. Al Kazeem doesn’t have to give the fav 7 lbs this year like last and will be better suited to the slightly softer ground than when the met last time. He has also run very well already this year behind Cirrus Des Aigles and looks the value here at 100/30. Postponed doesn’t look to be up to this yet and I don’t know how he is so short.

    2 Points win 100/30 Boyles/lads/Betfair

    Curragh 3:55

    I think Qualify may be a little underestimated here she has plenty of good form and although she was last in the UK equivalent it was her first run and she never got into it. Her run in the US last year was eye-catching in that she finished really well while being brought all over the track. If she isn’t used as a pacemaker here she might stand better chance than her odds indicate of getting involved. She worth a min bet anyway just in case.

    ½ Point EW 50/1 4 Places Bet365

    3:55 Redcar

    I’m going to go with the outsider of the field here Rebellious Guest. He wasn’t in the race at all last time out at Ascot but is now of a very low mark in comparison to the AW mark. In fairness it’s hard to find any reason to believe that he can transfer that form here but I’ll take the risk at 20/1. Even on the all-weather he is an in and out performer so a bit of sudden improvement today wouldn’t be out of character.

    1 Point win 20/1 Generally


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,473 ✭✭✭longshotvalue


    Poor enough days racing today with nothing really standing out so I’ll go with a couple of longshots for min bets.

    York 2:55

    It takes a bit of a leap of faith to think that Chilworth Icon might just have a small shout here but at 40/1 not much indication is needed. He is in here of a very low mark with a 7lbs claimer on and proved last year that 5 furlong’s was probably his best trip with a win at Sandown of a higher mark. He also ran well in the Portland after and although has been very poor this year it was the same last year until his win. At the price he looks a bit of value to like his very light weight here and get into the race and I’ll go for a min bet.

    ½ Point EW 40/1 Bet365 5 places

    Newmarket 5:40

    Sir Jack Layden
    was a decent 2yo who has struggled of too high a mark since but despite finishing well down the field from an outside draw last time out at york, I saw a little hope in that run and I wouldn’t be at all surprised if he was to start to show a bit of form of a much reduced mark here. He is worth a min bet at 50/1 just in case

    ½ Point EW 50/1 Betfair Sportsbook

    4:30 Newmarket

    Mukmal
    started to look like he might be about to strike last time out here and in this weaker race getting the 3yo allowance he might just be the value getting load of weight from everything. He has shown enough a few times that a mark of 90 should be doable and I thought he would be shorter than 20/1. I’m also going to have a min bet on Hoof It at a big price , he should have needed his first run and if he improves from that he can get involved of this mark

    1 Point win 20/1 Mukmal Generally

    ½ Point win 25/1 Hoof It Generally
