I had 20 bets and 4 winners,but still had a very bad day!
iiii - Uxizandre - 3.00 Aintree -10-3 -One of the top novices of last season and in a recent interview Alan King was very bullish and advised he had improved. If as good as they say, well weighted to win this. no cheekpieces which he has needed to win in past, this was a run to bring him on for the Paddy Power
iii- Dungannon - 3.15 Doncaster-7-1 -Done us a good turn last time out when he won with something in hand. Usually when this horse wins he runs up a sequence and hoping that is the case again. Danger is Counter Ridge NR. told you all you can set your watch by this horse, as soon as he wins he goes on a roll. Easy peasy
ii - Aubusson - Chepstow 4.10 - 9-1- This horse ran really well last season until found out in higher class. Loves what will be very testing ground and regular rider takes off seven pounds to add to the 5lb dropped by the handicapper for that higher class race. 2nd Would have won without mistake at last.
I- Morache Music -Doncaster 5.00 - 10-1 - NR Course and distance winner earlier in the season and hopeful he will be back there again. Highland Colori a saver -last
Also fancy
2.00 Hawk High 10-1 better 12-1 Winner and what a price for top class Cheltenham winner.
2.30 Aintree -Roberto Pegasus 10-3 drifted and not good enough.
3.40 Ain Burton Port 10-3 went out like a light
2.10 Doncaster -Growl 4-1 not good enough, going well then went out like a light when asked.
2.40 Doncaster -Dashing Star 6-1 battled really well for 2nd
3.50 Doncaster - Elm Park 15-8 2-1 nice price again Easy winner is going to be one to follow for classics next year. Looks Derby rather than guineas material.
2.20 Sky hunter 7-2 Another winner and another nice price easily
3.30 Newbury - Burano 7-1 Another one Like shelling peas
Old A.McCoy lost me a few bob today!
I try and avoid him, his runners are usually underpriced
Lets hope we get back on track this week.
Selections_
iiii - La Banderilla 13-2 - 3.00 Donnie - Kept back for an end of season campaign and ran creditably in fourth behind Albashaarah on season debut. Hoping that brought her on for this. Nowhere
iii - Dungannon- 8-1 -2.25 Donnie -A friend of the ratings with two wins last two times and usually bags them in threes. Not 4 candle rating as I am afraid of Spinatrix and done SF as a saver. Well Spinatrix ran ok but Dungannon totally eased when chance gone. Aetna 's owner flew in from South Africa especially for this no surprise it won then !!!
ii - Lulu The Zulu - 8-1 -1.50 Donnie - Ran superbly last time beating top notch tonto and other smart mudlarks. Trainer in good form and hoping she goes on and wins this. Ran a lovely race and at one time she looked like she was going to win then I saw Levitate cantering as well. 2nd
I- Opening Batsaman -14-1 -2.40 Wincanton- If Harry Fry has got this horse back to its best which he reckons he has , he is thrown in at the weights on his best form. Ran really well until 2nd last when he stopped dead. The Young Master is one to follow.
Other Fancies
3.35 Donnie - Don't like Spencer but I wonder if Elsworth has found him the horse to go out on a bang. Dashing Star 14-1.Also having small saver on Odeon in the hope his quirks have gone and he returns to his early season form. Dashing Star ran well in 3rd
2.05 Wincanton Polly Peachum 9-2 Never in danger and one to follow. 6-1 great price
3.15 Wincanton -Bertimont 8-1 stole really slow run race at Chepstow and hope they under estimate him again. Would he have won if Irving hadn't of interfered with him? purple bay impressive but I'm disappointed. 2nd at wonderful 14-1. Would have had a win double PP and this damn
2.30 Sandown - Toby Lerone 10-1-Sharpened up over hurdles recently and bottom weight should help back over Fences. nowhere
3.05 Kashmir Peak 12-1 - hope he is back to his best. obviously back but not good enough to beat Exitas. 2nd
All the above look real value at the prices. Lets hope we get some in
iiii - 2.30 Cheltenham - Indian Castle 10-1 - this horse ran well last year ending up as favourite for the Foxhunters at the Festival. only finished 7th but made a mistake when challenging and that race is over 3 furlongs longer than this. Will love the ground, looks well handicapped and if producing his beating of Annacotty over 2m 5f will take all the beating. flattered to deceive
iii - 3.00 Cheltenham - Katkeau 4-1 - Unfortuntaly I missed the 6-1 available earlier to day before the sharks got onto it. Missed the whole of last season and if still as good as year before should win this. WINNER AND 9-2 NICE PRICE
ii- 1.50 Cheltenham - The Druids Newphew - 5-1- Trainer and jockey teamed up to win big one last week only to lose race through wrong entry. This should cheer them up. Ran well and another 2nd !!!
I- 2.00 Lingfield -Seeking Magic 12-1 - this horse didn't have as good a season as he should but ran some good races in defeat on ground he wouldn't have liked that much. Hoping the all weather gives him a new lease of life. Backed down to 9-2 but nowhere
Also fancy
3.15 Wetherby Chat Room 6-1 back over hurdles and trainer on fire. well that messed up Ferguson's winning streak
2.35 Energia Davos 7-1 last time out hated the ground, won well the race before. didn't get going until too late
see he has nicked three of my selections, watch the only one I hadn't picked
Kings Massini
win
now I do
iiii - 1.30 Ascot -Spartan angel 4-1 - Henderson should know what he has to beat through Polly Peachum form. Ran in snatches and just missed out on third. Dark Spirit won easily
iii - 1.15 Haydock -Morito Du Berlais 9-2 - Still near bottom weights and won last two. inconvenienced last but would never have won. 3rd
ii - 3.00 Haydock Menorah 8-1 - Beat all these on a flat left handed track so cant understand why he cant again. Ground is supposed to be problem but he has won on heavy and trainer and jockey going great guns. 8-1 value price. 2nd Thought I had it and might of done if he had looked for better ground earlier. Ran superbly though
I- 3.35 Ascot -Midnight appeal -13-2 already been nibbled at and if his jumping back to its best should go close. cantering all over them until bumped badly four out. 3rd
Also fancy
2.25 Katkeau 6-1 if he doesn't bounce was doing well but tired at end. Thank goodness I had saver on Aubusson. It did get 3 miles which was my only doubt.
3.15 Ascot 4-1 Uick Du Lin not good enough
1.50 at Haydock looking forward to so many old favourites The New One should account for Melodic Rendezvous, Hawk High and Williams Wishes though.
1.50 Hay Melodic Rendezvous 5-1 and a stupid forecast on that and hawk High Class told with The New One
2.25 Hay Aubusson 12-1 Winner
300 Hay Harry topper 11-1 last
1.30 Ascot Gaye Memories 16-1 nowhere
Heavy ground could be the key so I think you need a horse who can get 3m2f so Monbeg Dude 4th and Midnight Prayer both 22-1 must come into reckoning. also fancy Smad Place 7-1 and What a Warrior 22-1. Main one is The Druids Nephew 9-1. too many errors early then went out like a light two out
Ratings
iiii - 1.50 Newbury -Exitas 5-1 - I think they made a mistake with this one last time as because it liked heavy they took it round the heaviest part of the course and it lost out to the horses that went wider. Ground will still be to its liking and hopefully they will give it a fair chance this time. Completely gone now even though trainer reckons he is better than ever. Have worked out he doesn't like going left handed.
iii- 2.40 Newcastle - Victors Serenade - 9-2 -Ran really well last time beating Monbeg Dude and I reckon it will win again and boost Monbegs chance in the big race. Taken out of Hennessey to go for this Jumped terribly and my old favourite Hey Big Spender won again. da mn
ii - 12.50 Newbury- Tara Road 3-1-Not a great fan of this trainer but this horse has won its first two races very cosily and very hopeful. Didn't jump well early on and well beaten despite plugging on for 4th
I - 2.05 Newcastle -Aurore Destruval 4-1 - Price already been attacked and this horse couldn't have been more impressive last time. Trainer likes to win this race and taken out of good race last week. 2nd Ran well but Irving just too good and actually jumped this time.
Also fancy
1.20 Newbury Midnight appeal 5-1 nowhere
3.35 Newbury Solar Impulse 11-4 2nd
1.05 Newcaste
Native River SP won easily at a terrific price 10-1 thank you very much andybuck. one to follow.
