BKI's Bets

[BKI Punter]

Thought I'd start off a thread to record my bets on here. Been following many threads on here for a long time and have always wanted to have a crack. I'm a jumps guy but still have a few bets on the flat from time to time. Well, here goes nothing! :) 2:50 Haydock Les Fazzani 2pt win - 9/2 Distant Memories 1pt win - 11/2 Icon Dream 0.5 EW - 22/1 Les Fazzani has everything in his favour today. Hanagan is in cracking form and has been riding brilliantly for Ryan this year showing a tidy level stakes profit. Les Fazzani has only had three runs this year, winning one and placing in another. The 7 length defeat last time out can be discounted as on turf, he clearly prefers a bit of cut in the ground. Will have no problem staying the trip. Distant Memories has only ever been out of the frame twice in ten starts, and has constantly been improving. Seems to handle any going. Spencer is in good form and has ridden the horse on it's last three outings, finishing second twice and winning the other, never beaten by more than a length. Is a game battler and will always be trying. I can't work out why Icon Dream is a 22/1 shot. Has never been beaten by far on any outing other than the last one, however the horse had been quickly upped to two miles and didn't stay. Will relish any cut in the ground and has some decent form behind Ted Spread, Jan Vermeer and Shintoh. Only a matter of time before this one goes in. 3:25 Haydock Persian Peril 0.5pt EW - 22/1 Persian Peril looks a good price for me here. Hasn't won over this exact distance but has won on soft going over further, and with more rain forcast for tomorrow on what is already soft ground, stamina may play a bigger part. Both jockey and trainer are in form here too, so I'm hopeful for a big run. His form this year hasn't been great, but he's yet to race on soft ground. This horse also loves Haydock, winning twice from three outings there. Four of his five wins have been at this time of year, so if he's going to go in again, now's the time for it.

Re: BKI's Bets Good luck with your thread, very decent write ups and nice to see people putting the effort in with their reasoning. Goes to show there are still some punters around who value the reasoning, rather than the posters that join and want to provide lists of "tips". :ok
