Villa Chris Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 The form of Double Shuffles last win has turned out strong. Second went on to finish second again Third won next time up Fifth went on to finish second Sixth won next time up He’s 5Ibs higher now but he’s a proper Kempton horse and will enjoy good ground .

I've had a small e/w bet on Fingersontheswitch at 12's again thats tight will back again if drifts i also like a 33/1 outsider i think there is plenty more improvement to come and thats jon jo's Young Wolf nice one for you chris being a villa fan!

Young Wolf rated up quite well. Like a few of them he’ll appreciate the good ground . Tends to do his winning in small fiends though, although he’s ran well enough in larger fields. Can see Double Shuffle going off at 8/1-9/1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Intrigued to how you calculate etc. My background is research (unfortunately Ipsos Mori nothing to do with horses). Can you share I'd love to analyse it?
