Striker Posted December 5, 2020 Author Share Posted December 5, 2020 Was a lively outsider into 11-1 and was travelling nicely with the eventual winner till stopping very quickly 4 out and quickly pulled up..with jockey reporting that horse made a respiratory noise!

Interestingly priced up at only 16/1 for Paddy Power chase on 27th Dec. Somebody knows something!!!!

Striker Posted January 10, 2021 Author Share Posted January 10, 2021 Interesting debut run Went off a well backed Fav, but jinked leaving the stalls and was last early on but ran very free for first half of the race Jockey seemed to accept the situation in the home straight deliberately not switching the horse out wide to challenge but decided to educate him by bringing the colt through the middle under hands and heels to finish a close up 7th beaten about 3 lengths Winner waiting to happen!

Striker Posted January 12, 2021 Author Share Posted January 12, 2021 Sea Ducor Is a Irish trained Handicap hurdler who I think has a big pot in him this winter Has won on the flat and then after winning his novice hurdle ran a big race when 2nd in a decent handicap over Christmas In my opinion he is still unexposed and ahead of his rating, would not be a great surprise to see him plunder a big festival handicap if the Irish are allowed to come over in March yossa6133 and Wanderlust 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Striker Posted January 24, 2021 Author Share Posted January 24, 2021 Interesting to see the horse has a entry for the Betfair Hurdle next month Have risked a small each way investment at 25-1 with Bet 365 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Striker Posted February 2, 2021 Author Share Posted February 2, 2021 Next month the flat turf season starts and a Trainer that I expect to do well is Alan King who though better known for being a NH man is year by year getting more involved on the level and his horses tend to go off under priced. I liked a few of his juveniles last year and have a few of them in my tracker like.... Forever William Finished 3rd on only run at Leicester after missing the break and being outpaced, well as showing greenness. Will win over middle distances for sure and has been gelded which King likes to do with his nice prospects yossa6133 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I backed it each way. It was 5/1 when I put the bet on, but my online brokers are cr@p. My main one had no market , so my 'reserve' one was offering bets but only SP which I had to take!! So in a way I am glad it got beat!!!I would have been well miffed getting paid out at 5/4!!. Hopefully it will be a bigger price 1 or 2 races from now.

No one of there extra place races so you get the price when placing your bet or your choice to take the SP by altering your bet slip. We’re paying 6 places I think. But paid for the poor ride on the other one! Striker 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
