110 chelt Risky one this .....I wasn't going to bother because there's lots of unbeaten horses in here and any one of them could bounce forward and win ......computer has these 3 top ... Whatuowithyou 10.0 Fosterisland 50/1 Stayifuwanto 23.0 I don't have much confidence as the jockeys are novices and crap but good prices so I'll try 3pt wins all 3 and hope fosters springs a surprise 🫢

Ga law. 979 9/1 Ginny's destiny. 973 3/1 Stage star. 962 Protektoret. 961 Il ridoto 955 As you'd expect ...a ridiculously hard race to rate .....not that much between the top 5 overall ...each horse has it's merits .....bookies really favour Ginny's destiny and I can see why but I think overall there's better value in ga law who will come with a fitness advantage and is 3x the price so warrants the value bet badge ..... .....this looks a strong renewal so I don't think I'll ridoto is good enough and protektoret has a huge weight to carry .....likewise stage star who won this last year but will have to shoulder more weight this time against unexposed types .... For me it's 8pt win ginny .....4 PT ga law .......that feels a strong hand to play in a classy race Edit ...nicholks is talking about Ginny's running in the king George !!.......so he'd have to annilate these if that's the case ....🤔

Only authorised and outlaw stood their ground .....went Ew at 33/1 and 10/1 in the end as only .....would have bet again had they drifted again but everything is shortening so I'll just let them run now -
Grand Sefton Handicap Chase

Form and class Outlaw Peter. 604 total 1445 12.0 Authorised art. 568 total 1433 33/1 Arizona cardinal. 576 total 1425 12.0 Sure touch. 567 total 1413 7/1 King turgeon 559 total 1399 10.0 Brigadiers king turgeonev is rated top 5 and has been well backed all week into single figures ....could be a touch .....low rating comes from stepping up markedly in class ...unknown .... Top 3 represent value in a tricky race .....hard to rate authorised art because can run stinkers but then puts in fantastic performances in between so you never know who your gonna get ... If it's a good day then 33/1 is vastly overpriced Currently I'd be 5pts win top 3 ....I'll monitor and watch entries -
Very very difficult to rate because of lots of unknowns .....can't say I have a degree of confidence as a result but I've input as much as I can and computer has rated Onesmoothioperator. 1215 9.6 Land legend. 1200 18.0 Okita sushi. 1189 5 PT wins top 2 for a bit of fun 😊

I think I agree tbh although sir bob is top I think positive thinker is more likely to run his race ....but you never know ....I presume sir bob has been aimed at this so it's whether they have him fit and ready 🤔(probably last and last but one now 🤣🤣) -

Problem is I think he needs a run 😞.....but maybe they've decided because of his age that running fresh is his best shot.....will be an interesting race for sure ...good luck 🤞 -
901 del mar Just ran the class ratings .... Rebel Romance. 739 Luxembourg. 695 Sharyar 681 Emily uojohn. 677 My only bet on breeders cup I'll try 5pt at 4.4 and 8.8.top 2

I'm at work but thought I'd have a go at the Irish national race for a bit of fun on a quiet day ...form and class Sir bob 501 total 1263 16/1 Positive thinker. 406 total 1255 9/1 Saint Dona. 497 total 1208 Outside the door. 488 total 1207 Tough race ... Questions over distance and sir bob is 12 yo ....that's a negative but has a cushion in class and form if there's life in the old dog lol ....I think I'll keep stakes small and try 3pt Ew top two just to get involved ......good luck if you play the race 😀
