Did you get your LC results pyro? Or just on the lash for some young skirt:D

x PyRo

I'm a bit old for the LC boss. :pac: The brother got his though so I met him for a 'few' pints. Turned out to be a lot more! No need for the young skirt either, I've a wonderful gf. Although she's young skirt I suppose. :pac:

1:45 York - Majestic Myles - 1pt @ 14/1 (Bet365)

Speedy sort who is constantly improving, won 3 out of 5 starts and finished 2nd last time out in a good nursery when just pipped by a good Hannon horse called Eucharist. That form looks grand to me and on another day I feel my selection would of won. Drawn soundly and the ground will be ideal, the market and jockey booking suggests that this is the second choice Fahey horse but I feel he's as open to improvement as the current favourite Wootton Bassett who may find this a step too early and is certainly no value at 9/4. Only ever raced in small fields and despite having lots of ability he's certainly worth taking on. I feel the 'second' string Fahey horse looks to have a solid chance and could go well at a nice price. Small win bet.

2:15 York - Rimth - 1pt @ 10/1 (Ladbrokes)

When I first saw this horse 3 month ago I though it was something special, won well in a good maiden but hasn't been seen since, has reportedly had problems but should be tuned up well for this and looks a brilliant price. She beat numerous future winners like Byrony who has won 3 times since, The Thrill Is Gone who has placed in a Listed race. The Fifth Commandment who she also beat has won 3 times since also, plenty of form to find, maybe not form strong enough for this race but the horse obviously has plenty of ability, goes well on the ground and has a wonderful turn of foot, looks overpriced and should go well if feeling no ill-effects of here 101 day absence. Small win bet as there's only 8 runners and one will more than likely drop out as usual!

How confident would you be about those two mate, might stick them in an e/w double since they're on good auld odds!


p.s your up early!

x PyRo

Not over confident mate, only worth very small bets, certainly wouldn't connect them! Tight races to call too which makes it worse, great odds on both though. Stranger things have happened.

I'm always up late/early, nothing else to be at!

DOC09UNAM

Threw small enough bets on them seperately, and an even smaller double, just cause I like a flutter :P, tis worked in the past, hopefully your right tomorrow aswell :cool:

Cheers man, say the prayers tonight!

Thanks very much, great to get it over with, takes some pressure off too!

2:50 York - Capponi - 3pts @ 8/1 (Ladbrokes)

Really liking the look of Mark Johnston's 3 year old here. He's a C&D winner when winning impressively off 8lbs lower but gets a 6lb age allowance here thus carrying only 9st. Ran well for a long time over 1m 2f last time out but faded inside the final furlong when looking the most likely winner, hit 4/5 in running and ended up coming 9th of 15. He's dropped back to 1m here and likely to get a race run to suit and I think he'll be in the firing line come the end, only has had 5 starts, won 3 of those and is open to a lot more improvement, this race is certainly not beyond him and I think the 8/1 available is extremely generous, I'd have him as a 5/1 shot and even at that he'd be a good price. No better man than Dettori to have on board and he should find this fellow an ideal ride for him, if he can get him settled in behind the leaders he'll have a great chance come the final furlong and seems to have a good enough turn of foot to ensure victory here. Must go well and a medium bet for me at a nice price, my Nap of the day.

Last bet..

4:05 York - Eldalil - 2pts @ 9/2 (WillHill)

I'm a big fan of this filly, I think she has all the ability in the world and anytime she gets good or better ground she'll have a solid chance. Ran in the Group 2 Ribblesdale Stakes when un-fancied, came 2nd behind Hibaayeb who is excellent on quick ground, she wasn't hard pushed that day either and cruised past the rest to grab second place. If the ground stays relatively good she has a serious chance now in this listed company and the 9/2 looks a big price and is probably based on her poor showing at The Curragh when well behind Snow Fairy but the ground was completely against her and ruined any chance she had in my opinion, despite me backing her that day. Stoute has hit a bit of form of late and seems like his horses are running OK again so trainer form can't be doubted and Richard Hills is a competent enough jockey and has been riding well of late, small enough win bet for me and she should go well but if the ground goes soft then AVOID!

Any joy today??

Not looking good pyro

x PyRo

Big gambles on Rimth and Capponi didn't pay off. Capponi got boxed in and had a poor position throughout, all on Eldalil now, she has the ground but there's lots of money on the Oxx horse so she may be hard to beat. Here's hoping.

1 more small bet..

4:40 York - Perfect Blossom - 1pt @ 7/1 (Bet365)

On a constant upwards curve, has won all 6 starts at 5f since joining a new yard, won comfortably last time out finding more than all in a good race and despite a penalty I think she can follow up again, she's drawn sound, will love the ground and has a decent 3lb claimer on board. Trainer form is good of late as is the jockeys. Should take a lot of beating and even with a penalty she could well find enough improvement to take this, the race will be run to suit and I'll be surprised if she has reached the peak of her powers as she has only had 11 career starts and is open to more improvement. Small win bet for me.

Edit : No good, again. The tactics were a bit mental and didn't help.

Bring on tomorrow, NOW!

Bank - 287pts (+187pts)

He went to 6/4 in running for a bit and was overall favourate as they turned the last corner. Got a bit of a sweat out of my 5 euro so not too disappointed;)

x PyRo

Didn't think she traveled well at all, don't know how she hit 6/4 in running! One to keep an eye on for the future, I'm adamant she has loads of ability, just isn't showing it at the moment.

1:45 York - Desert Recluse - 2pts e/w @ 20/1 (Coral)

Backed this one last time out in the big handicap at Ascot four weeks ago, he ran well enough against his elders and finished a 2 3/4 length 4th behind Colloquial, he got boxed in a couple of times and ran on near the end, that was over 2m and he's dropped a further 2f which will suit him perfectly, he has lots of speed and will hopefully be staying on near the end better than most and looks severely underrated by the odds compilers. He is also a course winner when winning here by 6 lengths in a good handicap off a 10lb lower mark, he's highly progressive, only has had 12 starts (won 5) so he's open to more improvement and may have found 2m on the tough side last twice, he has won over this 1m 6f trip before when winning at Sandown. There should be a good pace in this race and that will suit him, the ground is also ideal for him and he will stay this trip with ease. Richard Hughes is on board and he doesn't often ride for Pat Eddery, if Richard gets him settled in mid division and sets him off late I feel he has a solid chance, the horse tends to run quite free but Hughes is good at settling them so that will be key. Hughes is also due a winner at this meeting, he's 0 from 12 so far and it wouldn't be like him to go away without a winner so he'll be desperate to get his first of three rides tomorrow across the line in first. He looks massive at 20/1 and I'd have him around 8/1 back against his own age group, decent sized each way bet for me and hopefully it proves worthwhile!

I love the hilarious PP special on this: If your horse finishes second beaten by up to and including half a length in this race, we will refund your losing single stake.

I mean would it not just be easier for them to offer slightly better odds?
