Cesarewitch


Recommended Posts

Re: Cesarewitch First past the post I'd hope. Seriously though, I'll have an interest in 3 come saturday - it might not be the 3 I selected ante-post either. Until Saturday though, I'm gonna stay away. Lost an absolute packet on yesterday's stupid results. If I didn't have the favourite - it won, if I did have the favourite then bloody 16/1 & 20/1 shots came in. Quit when all of last weeks profits went. Got a horrible feeling that today would be more of the same.

Re: Cesarewitch Hi everyone, I have been a long standing viewer of this great site and have decided to get involved in giving my knowledge and analysis in hopefully picking out some real value bets. The Cesarewitch is the last great Long Distance Handicap of the Flat Season and is a real chance for us to get some really good value if we are prepared to delve deep into the field. In the last 6 runnings of this race no horse has won coming from a stall lower than 17 and horses ridden more prominently to the pace always invariably win, as past results show it is very, very hard to come from behind. The ground yesterday was reported as Soft after 7mm of rain overnight and the weather forecast is for it to be overcast but dry today and sunny spells and dry tomorrow, so with this in mind the ground should be riding on the soft side of good. Taking into consideration the above facts I have found 3 horses with realistic each-way chances:

3(31)3701Swift Sailor (ex5) 30 distance_winner.gifM Johnston 49-4Greg Fairley(5)
Mark Johnston is one of the shrewdest trainers around and he would normally have a few runners in a race like this, however it is a tip intself that this is his only horse and that he must consider this to have a real live chance. Johnston won this race in 1998 with Spirit of Love and he also had the 2nd in Etterby Park that year. Last year he also won this race with Contact Dancer, so he is no mug when it comes to this race! Swift Sailor showed his credentials for this race last time out when he won at Pontefract on the same forecast going and trip as tomorrows race and beat another one of my each-way squeaks Ten Carat fairly comprehensively getting 7lbs and handing out a 10 3/4 lengths defeat to Ten Carat. Swift Sailor looks to have come to hand at just the right moment and drawn stall 31 with a liking for the ground and trip, a big run is on the cards! 18/1 each-way 7/10 bet.
8(33)-423Ten Carat 30 course_winner.gifMrs A J Perrett 58-10v1R Hughes
Ten Carat has been a frustrating horse this season as he has failed to get his head in front and was beaten by Swift Sailor as mentioned comprehensively, however there can be reasons behind that defeat as he was giving 7lbs and the ground was possibly softer than ideal for him, and it was a small field that day. He is now 15 lbs better off with Swift Sailor for that defeat and the going won't be as soft and he will also wear a visor for the first time to help him concentrate and get his head down. The time before last he was just worried out of it by tomorrows forecast favourite Afrad, in the last 100 yds to be beaten 1 1/4 lengths over 2m 5f at Goodwood on Soft going, giving Afrad 2lbs. Tomorrows race he will be 3lbs better off, drawn stall 33 and going and trip will not be a problem and the visor will aide his cause to knuckle down to the job in hand. A good run for this horse is on the cards! 28/1 each-way 5/10 bet.
28(25)5-18Calamintha 154 distance_winner.gifM C Pipe 57-12Lisa Jones
Martin Pipe has an unbelievable! record, with bottom of the weight handicappers in this race over the last 5 years: 2000 winner

2002 winner
1Miss Fara (FR)(36)M C Pipe7 8-0 R L Moore(5)12/1
He fields 3 runners tomorrow (Fortune Island, Penny Pictures & Calamintha) and by statistics Fortune Island cannot win because of draw 16, Penny Pictures is in shocking form and this leaves Calamintha who has shown it's disdain for hurdling and has shown a liking for extreme distances and softish going on the flat, as shown the time before last at Nottingham over 1m 6f good to soft being eased down considerably on the approach to the line winning under 9st 8lbs! last time out the ground was too fast hence his poor showing and tomorrow he has a featherweight of 7st 12lbs and loves to bowl along at the head of affairs and is drawn 25. My guess is this will be Pipes fancy for this race, however do not let the forecast price put you off!!! Good each-way squeak 50/1 each-way 3/10 bet. All the above prices are from Paddypower.com who are also offering 1/4 odds for the first 5 placed. The idea behind delving deep is to get the best possible price as the inevitable Bookie trimming of prices on the morning of the race. Good Luck Everyone! :hope Jonesy Knows

Re: Cesarewitch Interesting the O'brien runner HIPPODROME, only 3 runs to its name with the furthest over 10f, tomorrow it takes on an extra MILE in this race. Tabor's horse ridden by Ahern as Fallon is riding Afrad for Henderson. The price is only 20/1 at Sp odds but 33.0 on Betfair. Something weird about this one. At a massive price & 8th in this event 2 yrs ago is Establishment. Hayley turner has ridden the horse on last 2 rides & ran reasonably well. Has won at Newmarket which is a plus & a ridiculous low weight tomorrow would give this one a squeak in my eyes. At 150/1 at hills, I will be on Each way:loon

Re: Cesarewitch I like the look of Cordial. Came back recently after a lengthy absence and really put in a decent display over 1m 6f, finishing only 4 lengths behind the talented Indian Pipe Dream. I got the impression Cordial would be more suited to a longer distance and at 50/1, I shall certainly be putting a pound or 2 each way on. Along with my other choice - Baddam, I feel it could be a classic race and I look forward to it greatly.

Yes Bowles10, 20/1 looks a massive price for an Aidan O Brien runner in a handicap, if he stays, surely he'll run a HUGE race! I might have a litle bet on this one in the hope that he will stay :loon !!!!

Re: Cesarewitch Hi Master Joe & Bowles10, I looked at O'Briens' horse as well and to be honest there are too many if's, but's & maybe's about this horse: If it had a serious chance wouldn't Fallon ride it? and it is very inexperienced for a race like this after only having run 3 times and it is up a further mile!!! surely Ten carat has a much better chance at better odds: no problem with ground and trip and has a better jockey on board in Richard Hughes and is wearing a first time visor and is much better off in the weights against the favourite Fallons' ride Afrad from their last running! 28/1 against 20/1 ? I think the O'Brien factor here is giving false odds to this horse... Sorry guys it's just my opinion! Good Luck anyhows

Yes Bowles10' date=' 20/1 looks a massive price for an Aidan O Brien runner in a handicap, if he stays, surely he'll run a HUGE race! I might have a litle bet on this one in the hope that he will stay :loon !!!![/quote']

I agree also with Cordial so much so Ive put him in my round robin for today. e/w is 5 places:loon and he had a good run at Haydock and definatley worth 50's (40/1 @ corals)

Re: Cesarewitch Alright guys, if we're looking for value bets, get over to your nearest Paddy Power shop and get each way on Cordial (50/1) and Establishment (150/1). I have a feeling they will be the two dark horses of the race. Seeing as 5 places are being offered, it's a bit of a no-brainer that Establishment is at 150/1 if you ask me.

Re: Cesarewitch im also going with Fallons mount Afrad for the win (small stakes tho as 5/1 in a 36 race is poor value TBH and FAV's have a bad record here. also 1 I fancy is Seb Sanders riding Elusive dream.(at least you know seb gives 100% on his rides) a great form record 4th LTO

Re: Cesarewitch Unbelievably the draw seems to have a definite effect on a horses chances in this race, even over the marathon trip. Draws of winners from the last 10 years are: 18/34, 36/36, 36/36, 32/32, 18/33, 17/32, 19/29, 6/31, 15/26, 18/21 The first 10 home last year were drawn: 18, 12, 32, 19, 35, 20, 29, 3, 16, 26 Evidently its going to be extremely difficult for any horse drawn in single figures to have an impact.

Re: Cesarewitch Trainer R Price freely admits in the RFO that he has laid out kast years 4th QUEDEX for todays race. He is able to run off the same mark and has a decent draw in 18. Interesting to note that the horse favours soft conditions so the ground today (although it is firming up a bit( should be in his favour. As per Jonesy Knows's post (welcome to PL by the way mate ;) ) Calamintha looks interesting as well at a big price :ok

Re: Cesarewitch great stats there AK:clap. I just feel that if Fallon ducks in this then its going to be a big price winner. 4 horses that Ive got noted down here are. Swift sailor Letsroll King Revo fortune Island quote taken off the placepot tipster.

3.45 For those of you that scoff a mention of the draw in marathon trips such as this, I have offered details of recent results, and high numbers usually have the call. I am reliably told that a low draw might not be such a bad position this year however, as the rail will me moved before the Cesarewitch, which means that these stayers will be racing on 'new ground' for part of the journey. INCHNADAMPH, LETS ROLL and KING REVO might be the call via this sector of the draw, whilst others to consider include SWIFT SAILOR, FORTUNE ISLAND and HIPPODROME from the higher numbers. ELUSIVE DREAM has won on types of ground, and it would be just like Sir Mark Prescott to come and lift the 'other half' of the Autumn Double, having missed out on the Cambridgeshire. Draw details: 2004: 18-12-32-19 (34 ran--soft) 2003: 36-18-12-19 (36 ran good to firm) 2002: 36-35-29-1 (36 ran good to firm) 2001: 32-19-31-30 (36 ran--dead) 2000: 18-6-20-21 (33 ran--dead)
the only 1 Ive put money on is Elusive Dream. hope this helps.:ok

Re: Cesarewitch Ok - if i've applied these correctly(??), i am left with Bronwen Ten Carat Afrad Fortune Island I dont agree that Fortune Island cant win from draw 16 - i think that is just about high enough and as Jonesy Knows said, the stable does well in this race. Ten Carat was fancied for this race last year but was badly drawn in 7 and flopped. Has run well this year without winning but looks primed for a big run. the price is very big in my opinion. Bronwen has improved and improved this year, only being out of the frame once. Slightly inexperienced but the price of 48.0 reflects that. Well worth a bet with stamina proven last time out. Afrad is too short in a race as competitive as this although he obviously has a chance. So my final bets are going to be £3.33 on the other 3 at the odds quoted from betfair. Phew! Bronwen 3.33 @ 48.0 Ten Carat 3.33 @ 32.0 Fortune Island 3.33 @ 22.0
