Good Luck

 

Hi all,

Very exciting times....I recently bought a small share in a racehorse running tomorrow. That horse is Top Decision.

Have the day off and will be down at Exeter enjoying the experience. Horse is well and we have a decent jockey on board. We expect him at least to be placed and will be very disappointed if he doesn't. He is currently a best priced 10/1. We just don't want the ground to be heavy..the GM at the course is telling us soft at worse.

Exeter 12.25pm Top Decision 10/1 each way.

 

Hope it all works out for you.

good luck

 

Best of luck CP, hope you have a great day out and your fella runs well.

 

All the best Captain.

 

The novice hurdle at Sandown looks fascinating down the highway beat mercy mercy me who looked promising last year and truckin away who Beat sticklers favourite bumper horse from last year acey Milan I cant make my mind up .visually down the highway looked to do it easily but have a feeling truckin away beat a better horse. Then you have to ask yourself could mercy me beat them both? I doubt it. The price is edging me towards truckin away.

 

Best of luck Pops
Really like White Moon there tomorrow
Have a great day

 

Thanks all...any other tips for the day most appreciated.

Stick - I would ordinarily ask for your thoughts on the bumper but sadly need to be in Bristol for 5pm for an Xmas do so will probably leave around 3pm! That 2.35pm novice chase looks a decent affair. I like White Moon...some of our group reckon Defi Du Seuil is going to go close but I really like Topofthegame. Had a wind op and he strikes me as the type to be better over fences so whilst it's a tricky little affair I will probably back the Nicholls beast.

 

That s been said before Oddy...and hope so!

 

All the best Pops

 

Have a Great day, Captain.
Hope all goes well for you & most importantly that everyone comes back safe & sound.

 

Lieutenant Henderson used to train his half-brother, Top Ville Ben, who he won 3 races with. Top Ville Ben, in his pomp, was rated 142 so a mark of 99 for Top Decision looks extremely interesting, methinks.

Good luck, old boy.

 

If Stick is around (or anyone else interested for that matter). Have you seen that Lieutenant Henderson seems to have abandoned the idea, for the time being, of turning Twist into a Bumper / NH horse (hardly surprising with his pedigree, really) and has instead put him in 2 all-weather novice heats next Wednesday (over 8 and 10 furlongs). Most interesting.

 

12:50 Sandown - Red Devil Star 10/1. Placed in this race the last two runnings of it. Last year it was second off today's mark, has had a run to blow away the cobwebs so should be match fit and has the assistance of a very capable jockey in the shape of Tom O'Brien. Probably just about big enough to play each way but I'm going win only.

 

Sandown

12,50 Cap St Vincent 10/3

13,55 Turtle Wars 9/2

 

Exeter 1:30
Samarquad 3/1

Sandown 3:30
Thistimenextyear 5/2

 

1:30 Exeter - Samarquand 3/1
6:30 Dundalk - Tyrconenell 11/4

 

My losing streak can’t go on for much longer so ignore these selections ex 1.30 hey bud . Winners throughout the family. Listen I’m not expecting a win but place money at 66/1 and also in the 2.05 Arthur’s gift this is a bit sharp but with the deluge of rain we’ve had this one will be staying on at the end.like glen Rocco in the 1.55 san and primal focus in the 3.30 I’m quite impressed with intense focus progeny over the sticks.
