Redirected Scoop 6 for Saturday (posted as a comment) John B

 Have reposted this from John B (who currently heads the VFb Naps table!)


Scoop6 6th November

Another impossible day! Two sprints at Doncaster with horses that take turns to win!

of these races individually I use vfb for all my analysis . scoop 6 is just for fun..I can safely say I wouldnot be putting good money on any horse in most of these My thoughts:
2.00 Don - Just One for the Road  MR rateing spread from 103 to 111 with most being 105-8. Just one won last time out and up 6lb but proably still improving (up 24%)

2.10 Win - Barizan  Won gp 1 at Punchestown, 2nd Chel & Aintree. Massive improvement (51% rest of stats positive) 

2.35 Don - Les Fazzani  CDG Winner, High MR,appears to come better at end of the year top weight but a jock who want it! 

3.10 Don- Salden Licht  Another highly competitive handicap Won at Don last time out up 5lb for this but good claimer, has run at high hurdles leve l too..

3.20 Win Ouzbek Lots of old friends.....Ouzbek has run this year has top speed ratings.only question will it go right handed?

3.40 Don - Tax Free (Another competitve sprint..)  117+ top rated....top speed, good draw, DG winner..

My nap - The Scoop6 will not be won this week!


Good luck all! John B

Can this be THE John B? My old mucker John Buckles? If so, mate, you have to help me out, thae old reprobate Bob is giving me so much stick. Congrats on leading the Naps competition (so far), it's a great pity for you, that I'll win this months. But, it's great to hear from you. Where do you get your percentages from mate?

I'm afraid it is........still ugly,fat and looking for punting nivana!

Improvement % come straight out of vfb....a big improvement coupled with recent wins appears to bring success......but the class the horse runs in is important...I add 7lb for reach rise in class....

As for the naps...looks like I'll just have to concentrate more, never been one for chaps sneaking up behind!! :)

Hey boys, good to see you are both still chasing those winners & thanks for the comments on my contribution JohnB - well done on the Naps mate - my system is on another planet now & getting better. I'm just not concentrating on the races right now,just watching, busy at work and sad I'm in a different time zone & can't keep up til the Spring. And Martin, Bob gives everyone a tough time, what have you done to upset him this time? he asked me to contribute & then shoots me down in flames - we deserve it of course - naughty boys that we are. But it's his blog so he can do what he wants.

Who the hell shoots down anyone in flames ?- that's a bit rich - am happy to make observations on posts and welcome any comment on mine - this is a joint blog all equal status I have simply put it together - the only thing I stipulate is it remains a betting blog where people explain the reasons they are putting their good money down - make comments on posts disagree and accept disagreement from each other. To say I shoot you down in flames is just a tad precious.
So when you disagree with me about systems races trends - put it up big and bold - Tell me straight - I really can take it
just explain what I have written that made you feel "shot Down in Flames" and If I agree will apologise but don't want to nurse egos no matter how important I rate the author
