Friday's Meetings Lingfield A/W 7 Races 1:40-4:45p.m. Musselburgh Flat 7 Races 1:55-5:00p.m. Racecards At The Races Racing Post Sporting Life Good Luck
Happy Easter fellas, I'm going to try and go through the cards for a bit of fun Lingfield 140-Lamar 4/1 Has Moore booked and finished 2nd in a race where Grandeur and Grendisar ran so a stron race in these championships. Only worry is draw 11 but if anyone can weave a way through its Ryan. 210- Chookie Royal 9/2 This will break out and lead pillar to post, or try too 240- Growing Glory 9/1 Triple winner in France, notably reasonable enough 1m Polytrack Listed at Cagnes-sur-Mer in February (form ties in well with Thursday´s Prix Djebel winner); interesting to note trainer won that same race in 2010 with Liliside, who was later first past post in French 1,000 Guineas; unlike Liliside, this one couldn´t follow up in turf Listed next time, but this surface probably more suitable; worth considering. 315- Sovereign Debt 11/4 Was beaten by Mindurownbusiness but that was his 1st run was as Mindurownbusiness had ran in a prep, he should get revenge here. 345- Tryster 4/5 If you watch the last run you can see why and if you've got the cash a definite lump on job 415- Portamento 9/4 Could be a blue day if Godolphin rule like they have on the AW this winter. Won his qualifier easy enough and this has always been the aim. 445- Anglophile 2/1 Another Godolphin pick and very boring of me but when the forms there its there. Musselburgh 1.55- First Bombardment NAP* Evens I put this one up on Saturday and it went down by short head and to be honest I'm amazed you can get evens for this one 225- Fire Fighting 11/2 I quite liked the look of Mistiroc in this until I dived into the form and noticed that these 2 have already met with Fire Fighting coming out on top and with this being relatively sharp and Mistiroc having its first run for over 100 days I'm willing to back Fire this one time. 255- Chadic 16/1 This could be way off the mark and it'll be interesting to see what you guys think!!! Mister Universe is in here as top weight and ran well in some good races last year BUT has Johnson tried to pull the wool over the handicappers eyes as he put the blinkers on for the first time with Chadic off a low weight due to Mister Universe and Chadic himself ran in some good races. Im willing to take the plunge 330- Robot Boy 11/8 Ran well in a group 3 last year and has won 1st time out before. Good enough for me. 400- Red Baron 8/1 Finished 2nd in the race last year and runs off a 6 lb higher mark but had a pipe opener on the AW and we know this one will be trying. 430- Titus Bolt 5/1 Has had a pipe opener over hurdles and has a great record at Musselburgh. 500- Thirdtimelucky Finished 2nd on his last 2 runs and this wont take much winning Good luck if you play
Bayan certainly is an interesting runner on the level up at Musselburgh tomorrow too. Gary O'Brien aka "The Voice" who part - owns the horse stated he felt he was fairly treated on the flat and that they would focus on trying to win a few pots with him over the summer. I think at 4/1 I will back him for that race tomorrow too.
Chin up Florida...you should adopt that fool proof technique of backing the horses with the most loveliest names, your bound to come out in top...maybe. Have a good day there, I believe it's a sellout too.
I think Goldophin could have a very good day tomorrow: YANKEE 14.10 Pretend 15.45 Tryster 16.15 Portomento 16.45- Anglophile they are very likely to win the 14.40 aswell but cant work out which runner will win
The two French runners keep jumping out at me, and I see that old rogue Henderson has a runner. I wonder what the county set are saying about its chances
Really can't be arsed with the Godolphin benefit meeting --money goes to money... People slate national hunt,but that lingfield meet is a joke -more prize money than most tracks hand out in a year -most of it destined for one operation -!
Worst thing is that it's more dilution of racing. Just because it's got prize money it doesn't make it ok. Everything that's wrong with racing in my book
