Re: Jump Racing - Friday 5th August 15:50 Worcester I have doubts about a fair few of these, as a couple don’t look interested at all currently and others could be flattered by their rating. One who I think is still improving is RED NOT BLUE who has really done well this year, winning twice over 2m5f at Southwell. Looks to stay this slightly longer trip too having run very well in a better race two starts ago over this C + D. Travelling well, he was a little unlucky in-running towards the finish and deserved to be a little closer than the 3 lengths away he ended up. He’s since run a creditable race, again over 2m5f finishing 4^th. That was a competitive affair and the softer ground that day won’t have been ideal. He’s a really genuine sort, unlike some of the others here (Markington and Very Cool) and although up 1lb from the aforementioned Worcester effort, he looks a huge price at the 11/2 mark. For such a genuine sort who isn’t on a bad mark and looks like he’s still progressing, I was expecting more like 4/1. He’s almost certain to go very well as he doesn’t run too many bad races and in a field where there are doubts about nearly all of them, he’s a solid betting proposition. RED NOT BLUE; 3pts Win @ 11/2 Victor Chandler (bog)
