Striker Posted February 3, 2008 Author Share Posted February 3, 2008 Re: Hunter Chase Season 2008 Race 1 [Fontwell,3.40] NO Bet Hope this not a sign of things to come,ie a small field with a long odds on favourite! That horse today is Thisthatandtother who will be ridden by the very talented Nick Scholfield.Of his 4 rivals think Back Nine who has an up and coming jockey riding could run well at decent odds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Striker Posted February 3, 2008 Author Share Posted February 3, 2008 Re: Hunter Chase Season 2008 Thisthatandtother won with his head in chest and Back Nine under a good ride battled on for 2nd. Next race Wednesday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Striker Posted February 6, 2008 Author Share Posted February 6, 2008 Re: Hunter Chase Season 2008 Cheers Pete Race 2 [Ludlow,4.20] Racing delayed 30mins Another small field and an odds on favourite! This time its Tribal Venture,but in a race where most horses like to be held up this could play into the hands of the veteran Toms Prize who likes an uncontested lead Recommended Bet [£10 a pt] TOM"S PRIZE...0.25pt Win @ 6 [Ladbrokes] & 0.75pt Place @ 2.1 [betfair] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillyHills Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Re: Hunter Chase Season 2008 Nice to see this back Striker, good luck. Dont you think we have to change the rules somewhat, too many ex good handicappers going hunter chasing for glory. Makes a mockery of a lot of races nowdays.

Striker Posted February 6, 2008 Author Share Posted February 6, 2008 Re: Hunter Chase Season 2008 Cheers lads You are right billy,both races so far won by horses trained by a couple of the big chiefs in Nicholls and Hobbs.....and i wouldnt want to lay big odds that both the festival and aintree hunter chases are not won by horses with a "proper" trainer!

Striker Posted February 7, 2008 Author Share Posted February 7, 2008 Re: Hunter Chase Season 2008 Race 3 [Huntingdon,4.10] First real competive race,and the money horse in the betting has been the consistent Coolefind. But i like the ex handicapper Green Belt Flyer whose "proper" trainer is in good form. Recommended Bet [£10 a pt] with Betfair GREEN BELT FLYER...0.25pt Win @ 4.2...0.75pt Place @ 1.7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Striker Posted February 8, 2008 Author Share Posted February 8, 2008 Re: Hunter Chase Season 2008 Race 4 [bangor,4.25] NO Bet Again the big trainers dominate with the odds favourite being Armaturk from Paul Nicholls.But i think will be given a race by the veteran Risk Accessor whose trainer Jonjo O"Neill is starting to hit top form Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Striker Posted February 8, 2008 Author Share Posted February 8, 2008 Re: Hunter Chase Season 2008 Risk Accessor did win,but was lucky as Armaturk would have skated up but for unseating an embarrassed Nick Scholfield Next race tuesday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Striker Posted February 12, 2008 Author Share Posted February 12, 2008 Re: Hunter Chase Season 2008 Race 5 [Folkestone,4.30] Will the stranglehold of the "Proper" trainers Winning again be broken today? Paul Nicholls has the favourite in Lou Du Moulin Mas,but i think that is worth taking on with the Course and Distance expert Honourable Spider who i know connections think will run well at the festival next month Recommended Bet [£10 a pt] with Betfair HONOURABLE SPIDER....0.25pt Win @ 3.25....0.75pt Place @ 1.4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Striker Posted February 13, 2008 Author Share Posted February 13, 2008 Re: Hunter Chase Season 2008 Race 6 [Leicester,4.00] First old fashioned hunter chase race of the season! Whistling Straits who has the assistant of top jockey Richard Burton looks a worthy enough favourite.But i think at better odds Cash in Hand will go well if fit and jumping holds up Race 7 [Musselburgh,4.20] Looks very difficult.Andy Anshan from a "Proper" trainer is the money horse betting wise while there is a word from respected judge for Encore Cadoudal Recommended Bets [£10 a pt] with Betfair [Leicester,4.00] WHISTLING STRAITS...0.50pt Place @ 1.47 CASH IN HAND.....0.50pt Place @ 2.16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Striker Posted February 15, 2008 Author Share Posted February 15, 2008 Re: Hunter Chase Season 2008 Bad day for Nicholls with two odds on favourites beat.

Striker Posted February 16, 2008 Author Share Posted February 16, 2008 Re: Hunter Chase Season 2008 Race 11 [Haydock,4.00] NO Bet Another odds on favourite trained by Paul Nicholls!

Striker Posted February 21, 2008 Author Share Posted February 21, 2008 Re: Hunter Chase Season 2008 Weather has relented...so NO Bets Race 12 [Huntingdon,4.30] Best race of sesson so far for me.Match between the Pro horse Montevideo and the Proper horse Scare Lotte Race 13 [Ayr,5.20] Will be testing and at big odds Behavingbadly should run well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Striker Posted February 22, 2008 Author Share Posted February 22, 2008 Re: Hunter Chase Season 2008 Good to see Montevideo get up after a horrible fall and how unlucky was Scare Lotte? Race 14 [Warwick,5.20] NO Bet Pro horse Tribal Venture will be favourite but at much better odds expect a decent run from Le Seychellois who unlike last time will appreciate todays trip and is 1/1 on the track.

Striker Posted February 26, 2008 Author Share Posted February 26, 2008 Re: Hunter Chase Season 2008 Tribal Venture was a Winning favourite Race 15 [Leicester,4.20] Looking at the earlier chase races these fences will take some jumping.Favourite should be Minouchka while at double figure odds expect a decent run from the unexposed Bill Jones.But the horse i really like is The Hookie Bookie who has impressed this year and represents top pointing connections.
