Haydock 1.45 (Sat)

[WorkingForTheEnemy]

Texas Gold is running in the 1.45 Haydock and I expect a very good run. Favoured 5 furlongs, perfect ground(assuming no overnight rain). Beaten by Smokin Beau lto at Lingfield by 3/4l but was only recieving 1 lb that day. Here he's recieving 3lbs. Possibly the key interest point is the jockey booking. Usual jockey, Martin Dywer, is suspended and Fallon has been booked for the ride. First time theyve been partnered together. I doubt Fallon would have taken the ride without any confidience though and Muir must be confident to go out and get such a top level jockey. Unfortunatly Fallon has probably cost us a few points pricewise but TexasGold is around 5/1 on BF at the moment. Just missed out on payday when he came second 2 runs ago at 14/1. I expect to get paid out tommorrow.

Re: Haydock 1.45 (Sat) I`m on it WFTE. In fact I was on Texas Gold in the Stewards Cup last Saturday but it was a non runner. The odds last week were more appealing than the 5/1 or so today but it`s a policy of mine to follow up non runners like this. The trainer is doing well, it`s won over the distance, the ground should suit and as you point out, the booking of Fallon is significant.
