Helamis 4/1 Lingfield 4:05 - Looks to have been given a fair chance eased in grade here, expect a bold showing. Elsewhere it looks an appealing day at York and a potential mouth watering clash between Toronado and Al Kazeem where i will not be betting but just a watching brief. It will be interesting to see Telescope perform and see if he can put his last run right and get a win for himself here today, I think he will personally stating the obvious. Quite fancy Above Standard 7/1 in the York opener and will have a small bet each way just to err on the safe side. Goodluck to all for the day.
Agree on the nap, ran like an absolute pig on debut and still beat some useful horses. Mendacious Harpy goes today on AW at Lingfield, I will chance a few quid on her Nothing Original from me at York. The Grey Gatsby, Telescope, Toronado
First Flight in the Acomb for me. Missed the break by about ten lengths on debut and still won easily by three lengths. The Grey Gatsby will have come on for his last run but he was so green on debut i still think he might be too green to do himself justice again here. Pretty confident selection of First Flight for me.
The Gray Gatsby Foundry Toronado Trixie for me today and a large single on Toronado. Iv been on Al Kazeem each of his wins this year and theres no denying hes the current top older horse in the division, but i cant help but feel that form just isnt quite good enough. Hughes is adamant that Toronado will stay 1m2f and given how strongly he travels i wouldnt put this past him. Will no doubt be a similar run to LTO and try bring him as late as possible down the outside.
Im leaning towards not betting on the Juddmonte international now. Im going to kick myself when Al Kazeem wins....
Well done the Bogart supporters. I had a last second flutter on Goldream but 2nd is no use with a win bet!
I remarkably managed to pick the winner of a 5 furlong sprint handicap...not that i bet on it mind. I now fully expect my two actual bets for today, First Flight and Al Kazeem, to go and lose
Certainly was well done. A lot of burnt fingers after Above Standards gamble bid failed dramatically.
Well done on Bogart lads, no mean feat picking the winner of that but obviously lopping his tackle off has done the trick.
