Coral cup .....I've narrowed to 2 horses ..

Bachasson

Honest Vic 

Hugely open race but big prices so what the he'll let's have a big shot at a decent payout

Bachasson 10pts ew 16/1 lads

Honest  Vic 10pts ew 33/1 bet365 

 

Added eglatine du seuil win bet at 22.0 Betfair I just think he's overpriced given his level of form

Relatively good day yesterday with a decent enough profit so hopefully that can continue into today.

Ballymore Hurdle

Envoi Allen         154

Sporting John      152

Easywork            147

Longhouse Poet   147

The Big Getaway  145

The Big Breakaway 145

Decor Irlandais        145

 

Given how well the form was boosted yesterday is is very hard to see past Envoi Allen in this race. He is somewhat of a bulletproof horse as it is as I can see no way to crab what he has done in his short career. Sporting John is the danger and he too is a very solid horse without too many chinks. I can see him and EA having a right set to up the hill without getting past. The likely improver out of the rest could be the Tizzard horse but his ran disappointingly yesterday and he still has a fair bit to find.I will probably both the first two and maybe even in a forecast.

 

RSA

Allaho               164

Copperhead       160

Easy Game       160

Battleoverdoyen 158

Champ              157

Slate House       157

Minella Indo       156 (Hurdles) 149 (Fences)

 

I'm not a huge fan of this race this year but I can rule a few out. Minella Indo hasn't run to this level over fences yet and is short enough with that in mind. Slate House didnt get the ideal prep when pulling up last time out. Champ and Battleoverdoyen both fell last time out and Easy Game has to prove himself over this trip. I have a slight doubt over Copperheads last run, the race looked to fall apart a bit and also as to whether the stable are fully flying, however I will give him a chance to prove himself with my money on him, as well as Allaho who Ruby admits would have got closer to MI last season with a better ride in the Albert Bartlett. This step up in trip on soft ground is set to suit him and he could get the rest at it off the home turn.

Coral Cup

Really tough race to call and plenty with chances. In the end I have sided with the following:

Bachasson 25/1 Bet365 EW

Top Moon 18/1 Unibet EW

Dame De Compagne 9/2 Bet365

Alfa Mix 14/1 Bet365

I do have to say that the Henderson mare is now very short and I wouldn't touch her at those prices in such a competitive race.

 

Boodles Juvenile

I admit that I have a terrible record in this race, my only winner in recent memory being Flying Tiger (albeit at 33/1) but I don't often go that close. I have changed my approach this season and hopefully it will help! Definitely a small stakes job.

Blacko 6/1 Hills (also now a bit short - Was bigger than 20's in the week)

Repetitio 16/1 Unibet EW

Paladium 13/2 Bet365

 

Champion Bumper

I like the favourite but he is short enough for me in a race like this. I have backed:

Israel Champ 12/1 EW Bet365 (really solid form at Ascot and a good figure)

Queens Brook 7/1 Bet365
