Darran Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Wasn't to be at Newton Abbot although Bubble O' Clock is certainly one to keep an eye on as he looked the winner when he made his move, but then a lack of match practice seem to tell and he was only 3rd in the end. He was pretty keen in the early stages as well which wouldn't have helped. I was also surprised he was held up and I can see them being more aggressive on him next time maybe over a shorter trip. Onto Stratford tomorrow and starting with the last race on the card it is no surprise to see Jack Snipe's price tumble. 365's 16/1 didn't last long and he is currently only 5/1, but I still think that is value as he ought to be favourite. He is 5/6 in points after the last couple of years and the one time he was beaten it came in a match at the end of last season when he may well have had enough. He ran in the 4m race at Cheltenham's hunter chase night and he was in the lead until his stamina ran out in a decent race and he ended up pulling up. However he only went off 12/1 for that and this race is certainly worse. He has yet to win over hurdles, but he went really close on a couple of occasions and he hasn't run over them since 2016. We know he stays well which you can't say about some of these and I reckon he will attempt to make all which is often an advantage at Stratford. The 3 horses ahead of him in the betting are all from yards where gambles have to be noted and it wouldn't be the first time a well handicapped pointer has bumped into a Dr Newland runner! Even so a mark of 92 is probably around 10-15lbs on the low side and if he runs to form it will take a good performance to beat him. Jack Snipe @ 5/1 with Bet365 In the previous race I think it is worth backing Captain Buck's. His trainer reckons he can win a few races with him over the summer and it is easy to see why. He was beaten in his first two points for Rose Loxton including in a match at 1/7, but then on what turned out to be the final day of the pointing season he won over 2m4f and did it well. He's down in grade from when he was last seen under rules which will also help him and as much as you wouldn't say he was massively thrown in based on his pointing form, on his old form he is. He wouldn't be the first horse to rekindle his form after a spell pointing and with his trainer also part owning him you would imagine he thinks he is well handicapped as well.

AussieFrank Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 (edited) I am an avid punter and a U.K. ex-pat living in Australia and watch horse racing world-wide but I get very frustrated watching the antics loading the barriers at many U.K. meetings. Horses propping like donkeys at entry, over use of blindfolds, pulling tails forward by jockeys and many scratchings at the barrier. Barrier entry in Australia is mainly incident free as it is in South Africa, Hong Kong, France and Japan. Is there a major weakness in U.K. trainers to prepare their horses for barrier entry.

The Equaliser Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 (edited) No Multiple bet today; I don't even like the look of the short priced favourites Some single bets though: 1.20 Stra Mighty Meg 50p win at 11/1 1.50 Stra Czech Her Out 50p win at 22/1 2.10 Rip Benadalid £1 win at 11/2 (at least it has proven recent form) 3.50 Stra Flying Verse £1 win at 4/1 Remains to be seen if Paul Nicholls can finally get Captain Bucks to win) 3.50 Stra Play The Ace £1 win at 8/1 5.40 Newb Rasheeq £1 win at 13/2 5.40 Newb Buccaneers Vault £1 win at 17/2 (why take 4/1 for Normandy Barriere when Buccaneers Vault is so closely matched) £6 Total win bets Just one winner today at 22/1, can't believe that Czech Her Out got backed into 8/1 SP. Anyway outlay = £6.00 Return = £11.50 hence a £5.50 profit on the day Single balance C/fwd £386.55 (£400 Bank) Multiples balance B/fwd £648.04 (Bank £800) Edited July 8, 2020 by The Equaliser Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
