manckevin's Saturday Seven


Recommended Posts

OK, looking through some system stuff, and looking at other angles, I'm going to start having a stab at posting up these just on Saturdays. Comments after the title are those of Racing Post Spotlight (as found on the Desktop Betting Shop). I take no responsibility for how accurate these turn out to be. Can't promise to post every week due to work and other commitments but a good start will help, and it will certainly be here for the next fortnight. Will be backing these myself in Singles (7) and Doubles (21) and will be disappointed with less than a 50% strike rate, but I will try to include at least one double figure priced selection in each week. This is under test. Follow with caution.

SATURDAYS SEVEN SELECTIONS

SATURDAY 6TH NOVEMBER 2004

1.10 AYR IRON MAN 4/9 Ex-French juvenile hurdler who created very favourable impression when runner-up in good-class event at Wetherby on easy ground last week; obvious chance to go one better here.

1.20 DONCASTER BIG MOMENT 3/1 Has not won on Flat since 2001 but in good form this autumn on the level and over hurdles, doing well when just failing dropped back to this trip at Newmarket last month; however, chances are he will be picking up more minor money.

2.05 WINCANTON FIRST BALLOT 4/1 Gained valuable chasing experience in minor novice events at up to 3m this summer but much taller order here against rival of Comply Or Die’s stature and remains to be seen how his jumping fares in this stern test.

3.10 WINCANTON GUNTHER MCBRIDE 9/4 Usually gives his running, ground/trip/track all suitable and current well-being shown with game front-running success at Kempton two weeks ago; exposed but looks sure to play a leading role.

3.25 DONCASTER OLIGARCH 12/1 Less to do and came good under a positive ride in 1m Brighton auction maiden; should be effective back at 7f and ran arguably best race on this course second outing despite finding 6f inadequate.

3.40 WINCANTON RIGMAROLE 11/8 Vastly improved last season, winning six (including Grade 2 over C&D on good) and started second favourite for the Champion Hurdle; 4/5 and did the job without any fuss at Kempton two weeks ago; giving the weight on this first handicap assignment in nearly a year should be tougher, but only one of his rivals is in the handicap and he has proved his well-being.

4.00 DONCASTER SENDINTANK 5/2 Began the year a maiden on a mark of 50 but took his score for the season to nine out of 11 by readily accounting for a couple of in-form rivals at Musselburgh in midweek; clearly still thriving and likely to make a bold bid to defy penalty under conditions which suit.

(EDIT: I'll work on the formatting for next time)
