100 Bets to Broke Flat Season

Thanks Lads..

It was one of those times when i was the only one cheering. I went into the bookies to watch the race and couldn't believe the way she traveled. I would have had more on if i could be sure she wasn't going to be a pacemaker.. Its a laugh when everyone else was cursing the FAV for getting beat and me with my Fist pump..:D:D

Predictably enough I’m going for the outsider of the field here, with just enough zeros in his form to make it interesting. Free Zone basically hasn’t done a tap in long time, but amid all the last places over the last 2 years he has run well a few times, like the good 2nd at York at the end of last year. I never mind a few lasts with sprinters as these race can get away from you very quickly and there isn’t any point after that. He won’t mind the slightly softer ground here and if he can get away he should be able to perform of this mark. At 40/1 he’s worth the risk, especially with this trainer as he is a sprint specialist and surly would have a plan for this one. I’m also going for another at the end of the market in Smoothtalkingrascal. He was second in this 2 years ago and course form means a lot here. He has plummeted down the weights of late after a series of poor runs, but I’ve seen a bit to like in his last 2 runs and if the new stable have any sense they will have been getting him ready for today. His draw may not be ideal, but a big step up in form here wouldn’t be a huge surprise he is 20lbs below his highest mark and still only a 5yo. 33/1 is well worth a risk

4:30 Epson Derby

I put up Giovanni Canaletto for this last weekend at 16/1 and I wouldn’t be swapping that now given he is only 8/1. I also think that Epicuris is probably a bit overlooked here at a decent price. He was a very good unbeaten 2yo in France winning a Group 1 at the end of last year. He was poor enough on his reappearance but I just don’t think he would be coming here without a bit of a chance from this trainer. His 2yo for is really top drawer and if it does get in any way softer tomorrow that certainly won’t bother him. 18/1 with Paddy Power is too big to ignore.

Going for last minute change of heart here. I had a look at Mirsalle in this last night and decided against it, but on a second look he is down to a very nice mark and won around here on his first run of the season 2 years ago. He had 1 very good run last year when 2nd to Gatewood on level weights and today of 89 with a 3lbs claimer on he may be in with a shout at 40/1

Perth 4:25

Bar De Ligne has been poor since he moved stable but this stable is well capable of getting him back to his best with a target in mind, and given his good course record around here, I think there is a better than 33/1 chance that he may be back on his game today. He has some very decent form last year and any kind of recovery here will put him ring in the firing line if this mark with a 7lbs claimer on and a very light weight. At the prices he is worth the risk. We should know where we stand before the race because if he is to improve today there will surely be a few quid for him at these prices.

1 Point win 33/1 Generally

Roscommon 8:30

This looks a very nice race for a Monday and the minute I looked at it the 2 Gigginstown runners stood out a mile at the prices. Bishop’s Road has some very good form and is still very unexposed. He was poor enough last time but it was due to poor jumping from the start and if he can get that together here he should go close. The future form of some of his runs this year couldn’t have worked out any better. I’m also going for and old favourite in Rogue Angel who should be at home on decent ground and over this trip off this mark with a very good 5lbs claimer on today. He travelled well last time out but just didn’t stay having tried to go outside all the way and that didn’t work out. 25/1 looks a huge price
