Folkstone 21/01/08

Going: HEAVY Starburst Diamond 1.40 Folkstone 3rd in a bumper LTO at Chepstow when judged by the jockey booking he was the 2nd string. Has had intense schooling at home and could run well from a yard in decent form. Connections must think he'll handle the testing conditions. 11/1 Alpha Gamble 4.10 Folkstone Won over CD LTO in a AmHdcp and has won a point-to-point in Ireland. That win LTO would have done his confidence a world of good and now despite the 8lb rise he could still run well.

Re: Folkstone 21/01/08 3.10 race My ratings on this race are as follows: Killard Point 14pts Money Line 13pts The Outlier 12pts Staking as follows: Killard Point 4pts win @ 9/2 Bet365 (BOG) returns 12pts profit Money Line 2pts win @ 12/1 Sportingbet returns 16pts profit The Outlier 4pts win @ 4/1 Betfred returns 10pts profit Favourite Captain Correlli is back on a winning mark & RP states that it needs to win this to have a chance of getting an adequate rating to get into the grand National field. Negatives include not having won in this class before (has won in Cl 2 though!), has only won 1 from 4 3m+ & this will take some getting today. trainer doesnt have many runners here & shows 1 win from 7 at this track in 5 years.

Re: Folkstone 21/01/08 1.40 Starburst diamond any horse out of Old Vic will show its true form on a very soft surface & perhaps this one surprised the stable LTO when 3rd beating its 1st string that day (5th) behind The Apprentice in a bumper at Chepstow. At 12/1 worth a risk that this one may improve a few lbs on going it will love. 1.10 Daves Dream Would you take Evs on a horse where the trainer has 6 out of 8 hurdles hform here (75%). I certainly would, this is the one to beat today based on that record. Bremen sets the standard but has seconditis.

Re: Folkstone 21/01/08

I kept looking at Money Line this morning and in the end left it alone but I think its got a cracking chance and if AP was on it no way would you get 12/1 for it.
i think its lightweight will also help today. ignore last run as it was during the stables illness. Prior to that 3 wins on the bounce hard to ignore. :ok

Re: Folkstone 21/01/08 3.10 The Outlier 9/2 7.5 pts e.w WH. Could go purely for the win as only two places but this is a more stand out price and I also think given its running style and being top weight it could be vulnerable to just one catching it. In small field races I always think tactics of a race are always even more important but I see it as simple in this (I think,) The Outlier normally front runs lto it didn't but i would think today it would in these conditions. It showed itself as a real mud lover especially in the Peter Marsh last year when beating turpin Green getting lots of weight and essentially bravely seeing them all off. It returns to that mark today after some relatively disappointing efforts it has to be said and I'm hoping the conditions will help it bounce back to form. Also feel Hobbs horse does have the bounce factor to deal with, long gap until its run lto, trainers can get them back now first time with more ease but sometimes they do not perform on their second run. We will see.

Re: Folkstone 21/01/08 1.10 Folkestone - Bremen Sets the standard here, missed on couple occasions, but the fav has won only a ordinary bumper and shouldn't be that short in the market for me. Bremen can take advantage of his hurdling ability and win this at a price I think is value ahead of the odds on fav.

Event Folk 2.40
Selection Noble Future (Each-Way)
Strength 2/10
Date 21/01/2008
Bookmaker/Price Betfred @ 41.00 (Back)
Reasoning Meeting - Folk Race - 2.40 Selection - Noble future Subject to a decent gamble last time out but showed absolutely nothing. Should come on and improve from that run too. Lto was on soft and these conditions will really test if its working out at home or not!! Jockey thomas has 9 from 30 when riding for Venetia Williams. If there was anything in the money that saw it move from 50's to 14's LTO then we should see it today. Not a very confident bet but then lately most of mine haven't been!!! This is purely a "Weight of money" LTO bet.

Event Folk 4.10
Selection New Mischief (Each-Way)
Strength 2/10
Date 21/01/2008
Bookmaker/Price Stan James @ 67.00 (Back)
Reasoning Meeting - Folk Race - 4.10 Selection - New Mischief The rank outsider in a 10 horse field but he can handle the conditions so firstly he should not be the rank outsider!!. LTO it was pulled up on good ground at Ludlow. While its last 4 runs have been on Good, its interesting to note that this horse has 2 placed efforts from 3 over this distance and Todays jockey has had only 2 rides onboard and taken it to a place both times. It has won off a higher weight before too.There are worse horses in the race than this one, yet they are at shorter prices

1.40 Starburst diamond 2nd 11/1 any horse out of Old Vic will show its true form on a very soft surface & perhaps this one surprised the stable LTO when 3rd beating its 1st string that day (5th) behind The Apprentice in a bumper at Chepstow. At 12/1 worth a risk that this one may improve a few lbs on going it will love. 1.10 Daves Dream 1st 5/6 Would you take Evs on a horse where the trainer has 6 out of 8 hurdles hform here (75%).

Daves Dream was impressive & keeps up Hendersons remarkable record at the track. Starburst Diamond got mullered on the turn in but stayed on well for 2nd & loved the ground as expected on its pedigree.
