    Bold Thady Quill Win 20/1
    Bold Thady Quill Top 5 Finish 3/1
    (Curragh 4.55)

    Has not had a win in well over 2 years, but I adore the horse.

    Both these on Paddy Power. I think that Top 5 price looks great!

    I have honestly no idea where it placed. Have not seen a race that strung out in a long time.

    Giving this a go...

    Borderlescott 25/1 (3:30 Musselburgh)

    Last year, this race was ran on Good to Firm, and Borderlescott was headed by a nose. Back in October, he had an outing on the same course/distance and once again finished second (this time by a length). Borderlescott's favourite going is however Soft - and that is what the track is today.

    First time out on a track where he has placed regularly, but now on going he seems to like. Worth a small shot at those odds for me!

    Giving a few at Cork a shot today that have good history in bad conditions. (Going is Heavy to Soft today)

    Prince Kup 4/1 (1.55)
    Ran well in what was basically a bog in France - so might like it today

    Ecmon 7/2 (2.30)
    Odds on horse in this was a beaten fave last 3 times out. My pick has good history in soft conditions.

    Reflet Ambre 7/1 (3.00)
    Another one that love the bog! Stablemate is the current fav, but this one had better form in this conditions.

    Singles and a little 180/1 Treble for the hell of it. Would be happy if one came in for a bit of profit.

    Prince Kup 4/1 (1.55) Place

    Ecmon 7/2 (2.30) Win

    Reflet Ambre 7/1 (3.00) Lose

    4/1 SP win on Ecmon made it an okay day. Some profit for day

    On Bold Thady Quill 25/1 (Cork 3.30) again tomorrow.

    Outsider of the whole field, but has had 4 races at 6f in his life. Won 2 and placed in 1.
    He won this exact race in 2013, and it looks to me like he getting trained to have a decent shot at this despite his age.

    Look back to 2013, what were the last two outings before he won...

    ... a 1m in Dundalk followed by a 1m at Curragh. Both unspectacular.

    Fast forward to 2015, his last outings in March were...

    ... a 1m in Dundalk followed by a 1m at Curragh. Both unspectacular - again!

    I think it is planned for BTQ to at least have a good go tomorrow. Of course, BTQ as not had a win 2 years. The last win was this exact race in 2013!

    There a lots of reason not to back him, but I like the horse, and have convinced myself he will get one more - even at growing age! Hope it is tomorrow...

    Fair play, I know nothing about horse racing and I've had about 6 pints so I wouldn't be listening to me


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,699 ✭✭✭zimmermania


    Sennockian Star in the 4 oc at Pontrefact despite carrying top weight looks a decent ew bet tomorrow at around 8/1.
    Has had a couple of outings on the aw that should have put him right for the 10 furlong handicap (was 3rd in it last year)
    Now reasonably handicapped having come down a few pounds he should go very close for Mark Johnstone and Joe Fanning.
    Has won on soft and good ground so conditions are ideal and in my opinion he represents good value.

    hey tinodz are you backing bertie blu boy again today?

    That's why it's gambling and not investing :D

    Investing is also gambling, just with smarter suits (occasionally) and slower outcomes (usually). :D
