  1. Re: Hunter Chase Season Hi NO Bets Stratford [7.20] This meeting has been ruined by the ground causing a number of non runners,and the fences came in for criticism as well. Joe has made a valid case for Caught at Dawn,who should contend alongside Ask the Natives and Yeoman Sailor who I know carrys stable confidence.No Retreat did us a favour last week,and appeals at Each/Way odds 8.20 Red Brook Lad has been a joy to watch this season,and if not over the top will take the beating.Derrintogher Yank should be on the premises to.

  2. Re: Hunter Chase Season Morning Joe Difficult horse to catch right that,but one thing certain you want a good jumper tonight. As the Stratford fences looked very stiff last night,and hold up horses looked well suited by the blistering pace set in both races last night. Back at 6pm,with my thoughts

  3. Re: Hunter Chase Season Evening Two cracking races at Stratford tonight,but NO Betting opportunitys! 6.40 Silence Reigns won well at Warwick,but will go off short odds in a big field. 8.10 Nicholls also has the favourite in Lord Anner.But I do think Denvale will be a different horse tonight,after a poor run last time.

  4. Re: Hunter Chase Season Morning NO Recommended bet. As off to Folkestone tonight,will make my final decisions on track. Here though are my thoughts on that meeting and the other hunter chase race. Kelso [5.20] Coole Abbey deserves to win a race,after running his heart out the last three runs. Folkestone 6.00 This fast ground will be right up the street of Exodus who caught the eye of some decent judges when winning his point recently. 7.00 I know top jockey Richard Burton is expecting a very good run from Hot Toddy 7.30 Again Burton will take the beating on the odds on Paddy for Paddy.But I think Tell Tale who has been laid out for this race after running well under rules will give him something to think about. 8.00 This is the most competive heat of the night.Think it lies at decent each/way odds between Lord Euro and Bell Rock. 8.30 Be surprised if Satchmo fails to outclass this lot.

  5. Re: Hunter Chase Season Afternoon Bangor [5.00] Fascinating race this.Champion Elect Richard Burton could easily have took the easy option and ride his usual 2 or 3 winners at a point meeting today,yet comes here having the choice to ride of the two favourites,Cornish Gale and Quality First.He chose Cornish,so that must run well. But I like No Retreat,he was a classy horse under rules and impressed me with his run recording good speed figures at the recent Cheltenham hunter chase meeting. Stake [Total,1pt] NO RETREAT 0.25pt Win @ 4.7. 0.75pt Place @ 1.56 [both Betfair]

  6. Re: Hunter Chase Season Hi NO Recommended bets for Tuesday Im going to Huntingdon tonight,and wont decide to bet till then. My thoughts though are Hereford [2.40] Think Chasing the Bride will Win,as hold up tactics suited well last time. Huntingdon 5.45 Difficult opener,with a number of horses in with a realistic chance.Coole Glen will appreciate the fast ground though,and shouldnt be to far away. 6.45 Findmeanother appeals Each/way as is proven over CD 7.15 Really looking forward to this race.Favourite Martin Ossie excited me when winning a point at Easter,and will be hard to beat.But Coomakista the mare is interesting getting the weight,and outsider Franco is improving. 7.45 Looks a match between Tanager and Vinnie Boy.

  7. Re: Hunter Chase Season Hello Warwick [8.20] Im looking forward to this race.Silence Reigns will be very popular,but Im happy to take it on with An Capall Dubh.My favourite jockey Richard Burton who likes the horse rides and I also think this promising horse will appreciate the drying ground,and get us back on the right track. Stake [2.5pts total] AN CAPALL DUBH 0.50pt Win @ 2.68. 2pts Place @ 1.4 [both Betfair]

  8. Re: Hunter Chase Season Evening Wetherby [7.55] Two horse race in my view. The Butterwick Kid has been targeted for this race for a while,is getting on but should run his race on a track that suits. Strongtrooper has taken well to pointing,and his jumping has really improved. Stakes [1pt total] 0.50pt Place @ 2.06 [betfair] STRONGTROOPER 0.25pt Reverse Exacta: THE BUTTERWICK KID/STRONGTROOPER

  9. Re: Hunter Chase Season Couldnt agree more Joe. Trouble is the situation will get worse. As tracks under pressure from the bookmakers are starting to cut down on the hunter chase races,as they dont attract the punters in the betting shops.So having a runner trained by someone Joe bloggs knows like Paul Nicholl"s,is seen as a good thing.

  10. Re: Hunter Chase Season Hi Fakenham [4.35] Competive enough race,some decent judges expect bold shows from Bush Hill Bandit and Derrintogher Yank.Im taking a Place chance on the old timer Upham Lord,who is reliable and shouldnt be to far away if reproducing recent form. Stake UPHAM LORD 0.25pt Place @ 1.91 [betfair]

  11. Re: Hunter Chase Season Evening Exeter [7.45] Be surprised if the winner fails to come from Smart Cavalier,Raregem or Nickit.Think the latter with Polly Gundry appeals the most,but concerned about whether he handles the heavy ground.But likes the track,and could be worth a small bet,to finish in the 123. Stake NICKIT 0.25 Point Place @ 1.79 [betfair]
