RobmullParticipant6.53 Hamilton
HAVEYOUMISSEDME each way at 10/1 with Skybet (5 places)
Rob.
RobmullParticipantHi Folks,
Since York, things have been rather quiet on the racing front for me, so I decided to have a look at next month’s St Leger at Doncaster.
The first thing that got me interested in the race is that there are currently only 13 entries left at this stage, which suggests that the field for the last classic of the season may be unusually small and if less than 8, only 2 places are likely to be offered for an each way investment.
The colt that catches my eye is ZECHARIAH, who is currently available at 12/1.
Rob.
RobmullParticipantHi Folks,
EMPEROR SPIRIT was the overall leader as expected, but just did too much early on and weakened to finish seventh and therefore scuppered my each way return by a head.
Disappointing, but I still believe that it was a good value bet at 12/1, when he was sent off at 7/1.
Some you win, some you lose!!
Rob.
RobmullParticipantHi Mike,
Excellent tipping over the past week or so!!
I have a selection for Saturday:
2.50 Ripon EMPEROR SPIRIT, who is a prominent racer and is drawn high in stall 13, both of which are positives ar this track, so the 12/1 each way with Sky Bet with 6 places on offer appears very tempting.
Rob.
RobmullParticipantHi Folks,
I should have stuck with my original selection, CURRENT OPTION, especially as he drifted to an SP of 11/2, rather than looking for a value alternative.
Hopefully I will return with a selection, or two for next Saturday.
All the best.
Rob.
RobmullParticipantHi Folks,
This will probably be my last selection until next weekend, as the racing is fairly poor quality this week.
4.10 Galway (Sunday)
I was planning to back CURRENT OPTION, who has won the last 2 renewals of this event, but he is too short at best odds of 4/1, so have decided to support LORD DUDLEY instead.
Although he has mostly raced at shorter distances he has won twice and finished second from 3 attempts at around 7 furlongs and is worth an each way play at 8/1 with Bet365 (5 places).
Rob.
RobmullParticipantHi Folks,
Another each way return from GREAT AMBASSADOR who finished sixth at an SP of 16/1. He actually ran better than his finishing position, as he was drawn on the wrong side of the track and was the first home of those emerging from the bottom half of the draw, despite being bumped when the groups merged.
Rob.
RobmullParticipantHi Folks,
3.20 Goodwood (Saturday)
GREAT AMBASSADOR finished third in this race last year and ran a nice preparatory race when finishing seventh in a Group 3 at Newbury a fortnight ago. Hopefully, he can reward each way support at 10/1 with William Hill (8 places).
Rob.
RobmullParticipantHi Folks,
I have a couple of selections for Friday.
3.00 Goodwood – LAWFUL COMMAND 0.5 pts each way at 14/1 with William Hill (7 places)
6.35 Galway – BABY ZEUS 0.5 pts each way at 14/1 with Bet365 (5 places).
Rob.
RobmullParticipantHi Folks,
I was disappointed with MY MATE MOZZIE, not because he was beaten, which is just a fact that has to be accepted when backing horses, but I had chosen him as his past performances had suggested that he was likely to be given a prominent position, which is often beneficial over course and distance, but instead was held up and never got into the race.
RobmullParticipantHi Mike,
Thanks for the link to the article, which I have previously read. I fully understand why many punters swerve chases due to an increased risk of non completions, but I have always worked on the basis that some I will win and some I will lose and as the majority of my NH profits are achieved over fences, I am inclined to accept the additional risks.
All the best.
Rob.
RobmullParticipantHi Folks,
Jumping is the name of the game, but I wonder what would have happened had FIRE ATTACK not fallen when leading and still going well at the fifth last fence in the Galway Plate?
Shame that we will never know.
Rob.
RobmullParticipantHi Folks,
5.05 Galway (Thursday)
MY MATE MOZZIE appears to have plenty in his favour and can hopefully reward each way support at 9/1 with William Hill (7 places).
Rob.
RobmullParticipantHi Folks,
Was unable to login yesterday afternoon and as suspected my Galway Plate selection has been tipped up by Pricewise. I secured 0.5pts each way on FIRE ATTACK at 8/1 with William Hill (7 places), albeit 15/2 is now the best odds available for 7 places.
All the best.
Rob.
