Horses......... lots of lays

7.25 Leop The Lodge Road 1.99 €10.00 laid tbp

Nothing particularly great about the debut over 9f, a confident lay.

7.30 Sandown Dancing Welcome 7 €8.00 backed

Decent price for CD winner off not much less of a mark, place price is woeful so no bet there.

7.30 Sandown Dancing Welcome 7 €8.00 backed

Decent price for CD winner off not much less of a mark, place price is woeful so no bet there.

7.45 Folkestone Fire Fighter 1.35 €50.00 laid to win and tbp (2 from 3 are placed though) Fire Fighter 1.09 €50.00

15f HC on GF, looney price for a horse who has only raced in public over 5f shorter, wouldn't have a clue about will it stay the trip or not.

7.55 Ramona Chase 16.5 €10 backed and tbp Ramona Chase 3.15 €7.00

Price far too big, due to 12f excursions me thinks.

8.00 Leop Bob Le Beau 4 €10.0 backed

Has won over the trip, don't see why Markmanship is the fav tbh given it's form over the trip.

8.05 Chepstow Dreams Of Dawn 1.17 €50.00 ............
Lady Bayside 1.18 €50.00

Both laid tbp, one may flop, no value at the prices.

8.15 Folkestone Full Bloom 5.9 €10.00 backed

Excuse lto's run and this one would be well fanciable, recent form is always overvalued so I'll disregard the most recent of it :pac:

8.25 Sandown Salient 8.6 €10.00

Decent form on GS, albeit over a tad longer, last 8f race was ok on the firmer ground.

8.30 Leop Dimona 1.65 €10.00 laid tbp

Price too short, trappy race.

8.50 Sligo Local Celebrity 1.99 €25.00 laid to win and tbp Local Celebrity 1.22 €50.00

Grand run lto but that was over 3f shorter, at the same trip again I'd be reckoning it had a great chance, not over 16f though, fingers crossed. The punter in me hates going against most of the betting shop dwellers in the last.

Just about beaten

-€1.16 today :cool:

5.00 Brighton Ishikawa 3.4 €6.00 laid and tbp Ishikawa 1.34 €10.00

Previous effort on GS was woeful, would be surprised if it won this.

5.10 Lingfield Jimmy Ryan 5.6 €12.00 backed and tbp Jimmy Ryan 2.08 €12.00

Nothing at all wrong with it's 6f CD form 2 runs ago, 2 3/4 length 5th in a 0 to 65 off 57, all those who finished ahead were rated higher. Won over 5f lto, looks very very very solid, big chance.

5.20 Worcester Wychwoods Mist 2.2 €12.00 backed tbp and to win Wychwoods Mist 6.4 €4.00

Looks a good bet, won a Class6 NHF race lto by 8 lengths on GS at 50/1, no ifs or buts about that, it's in the form book, that's as deep as my thoughts go on the race.

5.30 Brighton Come On The Irons 2.04 €12.0 layed to win

12f and the good to soft are both unknowns, two unknowns and the short price means lay to me despite there being only two rivals.

5.45 Tipp The Reaper 2.46 €8.00 layed to be placed

Don't like the look of this one at all over 5f, over 6f it doesn't seem to die over the last furlong, if anything it needs more, although that route has been explored too. I would be hugely surprised if it was better over 5f than 6f, in saying that I'm not laying it to win at the price, too meaty to lay.

5.50 New Shamaal Nibras 2.76 €6.00

layed, turf start not too impressive.

6.00 Haydock Amana 2.54 €6.00 layed tbp

A huge part of me reckons it's madness to lay the topweight tbp in a 7 runner race where the first 3 home are placed in Betfair, however this lad seems woefully incapable of running off 73, even on the ground which may not suit lots of the others.

6.15 Tipp Sole Power 3.4 €8.00 backed to win

On the ratings he's home and hosed, not that clearcut though but the price is generous so well worth backing.

6.20 New Queen Of The Hop 4.2 €10.00 backed tbp

7f form is decent.

6.35 Haydock Glen Moss 1.14 €95.70 layed tbp

As ye know at the price I find it hard to resist laying these sorts, in this case there is the soft ground as an added bonus.

6.45 Tipp Lady Bennett 2.07 €15.0 backed tbp

Makes as much appeal as the fav imo, trip and going to suit, towards the lower end of the HC but that has to be accepted from time to time, there are no hard and fast rules as to how to make (or lose) cash at this game :pac:

7.05 Haydock Pink Sapphire 8.2 €10.0 backed to win.

Won a 5f class 4 maiden on GS, connections must reckon the step up to 6f and 7f was suitable as it was ran in much better races the last twice, without success. Back in this company on soft it has to be of interest at the price.

7.20 Tipp Battle Of Saratoga 2.72 €8.00 layed

2nd lto on yielding, 7f may not have suited, yielding may not have suited, or it may have been optimum, 7f on GF is another cup of tea so worth opposing.

7.30 New Chain Of Events 10 €15.00 backed to win and tbp Chain Of Events 2.72 €8.00

Win price is looney big, 2nd in a 10f o to 80 on good off 74, beaten by a horse rated 76, hasn't gotten this trip and surface together since, I feel this suits

7.40 Haydock Camberley Two 1.35 €50.00 layed tbp

Has lots in the bag of tricks, trip and ground in the formbook, on a great run. Still layable at the price.

8.00 New Moriarty 3.75 €30.00 backed to win

4lbs on the ratings compared to his nearest rival, 7lbs to Halfsin.
Best form is over 10f on good in a Group 3 at the Curragh, I like it

8.10 Haydock Area Fifty One 3.35 €25.00 backed

Won decisively lto, 6lb rise is reasonable for the 4l win over better rated horse, less to do than the fav to win this I feel.

8.30 New Long Awaited 1.43 €0.17
1.43 €29.83
1.44 €2.30
1.44 €46.00

layed tbp

Doesn't see effective on a sound surface, lto that combined with the raise in the ratings resulted in 4th, same again here and I'll be happy out.
