Daily Thread Friday 22nd Feb

I text NASS last night asking him what he thought of BAY CENTRAL back over hurdles, his response = "looked at this earlier, he looks on a good mark and Hereford run looks fair in comparison to this. Aim to make all I guess. RIDDLESTOWN interested me, last run was promising to a point".

So for the second day running you have put up a horse that NASS had already told me he fancied.

Are you bugging our phones?


PS; what do you make of the Carroll gamble in the first at Sandown (on at 16's but only following the money)

 

Haha you got me. Watch back Riddlestown's hurdling debut. Shaped with a load of promise.

With regards Carroll, I was actually drawn to his other runner whose been off a long time but form who Harry Derhams booking on what is his only ride of the day/first tide for trainer looked very interesting considering he'd surely have had the choice of a few rides.

Looking specifically at Walden Prince, on Irish form he'd have a chance but I don't think he's thrown in or anything like that.

 

All about the Powell horse in the first. 16/1

 

Just the one bet for me Little Josh 20/1 e/w back to his optimum trip and back down in class!

 

Quick one, anyone got views on Takeroc today? I know he is a monkey of the highest order, but is he rather overpriced?

 

Big chance at the weights over a course and trip that suits him well. If its good rather than soft he has a very good chance in a weakish looking race.

 

Racing Post quoting "good, good to soft in places" on the chase course.

I have had a dabble at 16s. I was expecting him to be tens, and field size is perfect (cue NR to come)

 

Thundering Home 7/1

you goodthing

 

Done boring £20 win treble
***o..broadway buffalo ...roc d,apsis

 

he runs boys! 25/1. Someone do a daily thread I've got a 1000 word write up just finished.

 

You do it George, if its that good then headline it!

 

TAKEROC easing back in now NASS boy. On at 20's!

 

Nice place money!

 

Much improved effort by the old rogue, even stuck his head out and found something for pressure. Nice enough start to the afternoon.

 

Lady Sylvia a bit too big at 8/1 2.30!?

 

This is a bloody awful race.....why oh why have I had two bets in it.......must be mad, could pick eight or nine and not get the winner!

 

BOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMM great place money fellas, take a bow NASS & ROTO

 

Place money will do grand. There is definitely a race in this fella. If I see a tongue tie go on (which would indicate a breathing problem) I'd be all over it.
