There is no doubt in my mind that 7.15 Southwell Phoenix Flight 10/1 mark of 110 is one that he's quite a bit better than but it's just about trying to find out when he'll pop up. The step up to 3 miles may help a lot given he stayed 2m4f on the flat but he can be quite keen so hopefully he settles. Not one for maximum faith as he's a hard one to get right but I feel he has the ability to rout this field.
Jesus my pocket has faired better lol had my eye on greenbury and really shoul go better than the odds suggested so far today, looks to be placed to fair better in this race
I'm at Epsom and what a tough day it is proving! I had a great start with 7/1 and 14/1 winners but since then nothing! I should have quit whilst ahead! Any ideas on the 4.35? I haven't got a clue but the Becket horse is looking tempting.
It it's that it'll have to be doubled! To be fair you'd have to put a line through Irving's Supremes run. Add in the fact Punchestown is flatter, right handed and potentially juicier ground you could make a case for him. Valseur Lido came on a bundle from Cheltenham in his last run from which the vanquished Wicklow Brave should appreciate the flatter track, if given the go ahead. Would love Josses Hill to head over or Channon's horse (2nd to JH at Aintree). I'm just hoping the bookmakers give us a chance on backing Vautour!
Still think Mr Grez is well handicapped off a mark of 120.Found very little for pressure last time but worth another chance (5.10 Southwell)
Interesting runner in the bumper at Taunton later fellas. NATIVE EXPLORER from a nice line for a flat race and at 25-1 is an each way stab! Lots of money for the Honeyball horse. That is to be expected but a first time out tongue tie hardly fills one with confidence now does it!
Have a look at the 3.10 Warwick tomorrow lads - something fecking wrong there, a conditions race over 6F for 4YO+ and you have the top-rated Music Master (BHA 108) running of 8-12 and the 38(!!!!)-rated Steel City Boy running of 8-8. How the **** do they work that out?
Bloody annoying there with Phoenix Flight. Think he definitely would have won with a better jump at the last. Still thought he was pretty keen for most of the contest and I think a hood would help him no end. Will probably go up 4 or 5lb for that which is a massive pain.
I think Bobs Legend 15/8 should take a world of beating in the last at Southwell. Hopefully will make up for the Phoenix Flight.
