Nice 10/1 winner foe john987, as well as returns for Luke and David - well done. If I've left anyone out, I apologise; please leave a message on this thread and I'll update.
As there seems to be a hot early pace this month I think a surgical strike will be required to win the competition. Clandara and Cluan Dara are both running at Clonmel but luckily in different Races.
I am going e.w. on the latter in the 15.23. I got 66s.
Every so often I seem to hit a phase where the odds on a horse I am going to bet on shorten as I get to the bookies site and click on - you get the familiar request to accept the price changes. It doesn't seem to matter what size of bet I'm having eg today I've just tried backing 2 to minimum stakes on different sites and it has happened to both. I find this disconcerting well before the event and the only consolation is BOG. I may be developing a paranoia about this. One was Thomas Mor who has seemingly shortened for the 3s I took and the other was
Nap Winc 1440 Kakamora
only because he's in the tracker and longer. I probably just forgot to delete him.
I am but you invariably cannot get money on early eg the night before and quite often BOG is more appealing. Multiples are out too. The margins have also diminished over time eg if a horse were 5s BF would be 6s whereas these days the margins can be a lot tighter. Drifters are often much better on BF but that usually tells its own story.
Blue Lord wins at 5/6f.
Almost Gotaway won at 11/8 (after I switched from MR that was abandoned to 3.50 Win.)
That’s twice I’ve napped Bowtogreatness and twice the meeting has been abandoned before its run! I think someone is trying to tell me something!
I’ll therefore re select and go out on a limb with Nigg Bay (each way) in the 19.00 at Chelmsford.
NAP Romeo Brown 3.05 Market Rasen.
Gata Ban - 15.15 Wincanton
