Got a few fancies at decent prices today so no doubt walk away with 0 or 1 winner! Educate - 2.20 Newbury Grumeti - 2.40 Ayr Sacre Toi - 3.15 Ayr Rigadin de Beauchene / Neptune Equester - Scottish National Sydney Paget - 5.00 Ayr - Ran over inadequate trip LTO when a few of us fancied him strongly... back to normal trip i expect a huge run Bayleys Dream - 5.35 Ayr The Gold Cheongsam - 2.55 Newbury - The step up from 6f behind Roshdu Queen should help and she didnt get the best of runs that race either
Five runners in The Greenham, and a pullout in the RP trumpeting British flat racing as the best in the world. Must be a contradiction there somewhere. And it looks like I've missed the prices on Educate. Good luck to all his backers though. Anyway, back at Ayr, Buddy Bolero is a confident selection in the Novices Handicap Chase at 5.00. He could be thrown in off a mark of mark of 141, and he looks like he'll cope with pretty much any ground. My darts have landed on Relax and Bradley in the pinstickers handicap. Not sure I've ever backed the winner of the Scottish National, but there's always a first time.
Fixed now! Like i said on the opening post the weather here is still pretty good, no rain and a decent breeze. I think its already been improved to Good to soft, wouldnt surprise me if it improved further.
Can't work out why Auroras Encore is a market mover, that horse has about as much chance of winning today, as I do of winning the lottery tonight
