Also like Englishwoman in the first and Showboating in the mile. Got to strike when the prices are wrong!! 16/1 3/1 20/1
Quite like the chances of the first 3 favs at Wolves. SEAVIEW - plenty of money for this one 5 days ago and won very well, by 6 lengths. Should take this slight step in class if in the same mood @ 2/1 COQUINE - Going for a C/D 3 timer here, with Kirby on board should complete the hat trick @ 2/1 OMINOTAGO - Another clear cut winner last week and I think this one could rattle up a sequence, Appleby banging in the winners @ 7/4
What the hell is wrong with Ann Stokel she's not lending her magic hands to her own mount and Jane Elliot is up top? You're loving this Piazon form
Massive jockey upgrade isn't it!! The last time out effort by Bapak was taking until old Ann went for the whip and completely unbalanced the poor horse. Those three Piazon/Captain Lars races are much stronger form guides than most of the other horses in this race have and BB was better than bare results in both. Had he been drawn in the middle I would be having a good go at it but the low stall hampers that.
Big upgrade is right! Still not a believer that Ann Stokel would unbalance a horse though That form is good alright, wasn't that 20/1 winner you had last Friday in behind Piazon recently too. Well done on that btw. Bonjour Steve was in behind him (Piazon) and came out to win nto. Treaty Of Rome was a close second to BS and runs in a later race, should go well. Loughnane's Big Amigo is out under a penalty in the race but could prove vulnerable to TOR considering that form.
Morning, pilgrims. The ‘county set’ are very keen on one today namely BARNEY FROM TYANEE (no, no, no, no ,no its not named after me) in the ‘lucky last’ at Lingers Park (4.00). This one had very respectable form in the pointing field and since being transferred to Wiltshire has had how shall we say…ummmmmm…3 ‘introductory’ (yes, that word ought to satisfy the Stewards) runs over hurdle. As a result he’s perched on a most attractive figure of 101 for his handicap bow. Meanwhile, Barney’s barn are in good form with 2 of their last 7 runners obliging whilst a very capable amateur, James King, has been booked – 16 winners already this term and 2 since New Year’s Eve. If this one obliges I can see him quickly becoming the forum’s 2nd favourite Barney! The ‘county set’ though are not at all enamoured by the price offered. 11/4 was the best available last night and this has contracted since then. Those bookie chappies are taking little chance re this one but to be perfectly honest I can’t really blame them. Good luck, all.
Seeing as how adverse the weather is supposed to get sooner rather than later how long before we see the return of ‘Bumpers for Jumpers’?!? It’s my favourite type of race and what the breed was bred for. One would imagine that if the forecast turns into reality then there won’t be much, if any, NH action during its grip on the Isle. Cor blimey though, what’s occurring, a ‘humanitarian crisis’ and now adverse weather…whatever next, pilgrims?!?
Like ‘The Guardian’ I only read the ‘Daily Mail’ when I don’t have to pay for it – very generously the dear old taxpayers foot the coalface bill. God bless them and save them. No, no, no, no, no my info, re the weather, comes from my mole at The Met (Office not –roplitan Police).
Was just coming on to see if anyone else had seen this! A total shock, I hadn't heard any rumours about Kempton, though I have my suspicions that Southwell is on the way out. Plus Chelmsford have announced they intend to build a turf track INSIDE their existing all-weather track - Chester 2.0!
Kempton is an iconic NH course, the scene of so many emotional moments down the years. How can they even consider turning it into a housing estate?
Ridiculous decision... why dont they just build houses around it like they have at Newbury? Put in a multi storey car park and loads of room for them to cash in.....
Looks like it's funding the redevelopment of Sandown. I wonder if they think they can set Sandown up as a winter festival? Tingle Creek and King George...
