BBOTD 5th of October

[Aidymac]

Badger Or Bust - Navan 5:05 Big field of 23 horses go to post in this race so far and it is wide open, there are many with claims but i think this horse is a tad overpriced. This horse was obviously fancied last time out as Johnny Murtagh was booked but it could only manage 2nd, although a very creditable 2nd to On The Loose at Listowel, going down by 3/4 of a length. It seems the step up in trip and the softer going was the cause of its improvement and it is up another furlong tomorrow. Keane the jockey takes off 7 pounds also which could be crucial but it runs off same mark as last time out so is effectively 7 pounds better off. WIN @ 14/1 Paddy Power BOG

Re: BBOTD 5th of October 16:00 Nottingham Estourah Win (5,50) William Hill The young colt, got a decent chance to break his maiden status. He is yet to win after 5 starts but whit a second and third last over the same distance, there are reason to be optimistic. The trainer Saeed bin suroor got a great record at Nottingham, whit victory in 40,3 % of his 67 runs. The jockey Dettori gets his third run whit Estourah. The previous two both ended whit a place. The jockey are in great form whit a strikerate of 27,27 %. The horse will wear CP and TT for the first time Estourah form. 3-3-8-2-3
