Saturday @ Newbury - It's Frankel Time!

Hoof It is a certainty

 

boring selection

 

Shergs that I thought you were on about the money I borrowed for a personal reason not long ago.

I forgot about that thread I did indeed borrow money once so I could have a bet I stand corrected but my pay day was due. Wasn't getting in debt to gamble without having money to cover it. My apologies

 

Given what I said back then I have to agree Shergs

 

Glad we've sorted that out. I don't think there are many stalkers who stalk young guys in there 20s, certainly not male stalkers anyways

 

Frankel to win easily on Saturday is my prediciton - RP should hire me for that spotlight info

 

Absolutely agree with you there Ron - Hoof It will be the top sprinter this year I think and I'll be backing him a few times I suspect.

As for Frankel, I'm expecting a win but Excelebration could come close. The front three in the betting look like a very likely exacta to me - Frankel-Excelebration forecast and Frankel-Excelebration-Strong Suit exacta is the winning bet here I think (hope).

 

Hoof it for me too.

 

I think the odds for Pricewise to put put Frankel up on saturday will be longer than Frankel to win- he should do it just for fun

 

My only concern would be fitness because he was still quite big when he worked on 2000 Guineas day. No doubt Cecil has put the work in since then but I'd be expecting him to come a fair bit for the run. He does look to have strengthened up still further and defeat is hard/impossible to envisage.

 

Frankel 7/4 to remain unbeaten in 2012- have just taken a small chunk of that.

 

I must say he only has to run once too- So technically (Hope this doesnt happen) he could run on saturday- then go lame and get retired and I still win!!

 

Betfair only going 1.2 (1/5) he will go unbeaten- So that 7/4 looks great value!!

 

No small print then Wooly.

 

Just that he must run at least once and E/W bets not available lol

 

Wooly, did you follow that link? It wasn't just one picture.

 

I did see the other pics of Zens foal- beautiful- hopefully she will be like her mother!!

 

I was reading an article this morning about how channel 4 had got boring.
of course no mention was made of horse racing. It is a pity that the channel dont publicise his reappearance more. Frankel racing is a lot more interesting than the rest of the drivel they put on

 

I've already sent a comment to Channel 4 expressing my disbelief.

Why don't we all do that?

 

I think 11/4 and 5/2 about Excelebration in the Lockinge might be the worst price I have ever seen. His percentage chance of beating Frankel, let alone winning the race, is nowhere near 27%. An absolutely awful price.
