Todays racing!

2.45 Newbury 2m6f Good Good to Soft in places Chase 3

Vieno Griego win and place13 Bsp and 4.4 PSP is to me nice value in this race at this mark.

29/01/2011 Cheltenham 2m5f Chase 2 13k Good to Soft

2nd beaten 2 lenghth to The Giant Bolster Off 140 and coming back to Newbury today where there was the horses third Chase run over this distance finsihing 3rd and there was first improvement seen.Vieno Griego made several mistakes and could have won.

15/03/2011 entered in a Class 1 Chase in Cheltenham and the horse bettered the form finishing 4th on one level with Quantitative Easing and Divers both finished close to Great Endavour in the Paddy Power Gold Cup Chase on 12/11/11 wit a D Hcp of 150+.
Vieno Griego could have won this race here.

Today has a mark of 133 and back to favoured track and a decent days since run and with J E Moore who knows this horse good.

Watching the races beginning with the Newbury run there is steady improvement to see especially in the jumping. Had 3 errors against The Giant Bolster, which mad up maybe 3-5 lenghth, had jumps which made superb ground on the other side. The race in Class 1 on it jumped much better had one slight error and you could really see the ability to push forward in this horse, which was the only jockey error i think, that Moore went to drive out to early in this race and got caught online then. The Ground which is Good, Good to Soft in places is in the horses favour when its going to good. And def had its best run on Good Ground.

Newbury 13.35 2m5f Hcp Hurdle

Kingsmere Win and place 12.5BSP 3.7PSP (waiting to get matched Inrunning)

Resaon:

2nd S.H in a strong run 3m HH4 in Bangor travelling smoothly an pushing clear with Pie at Midnight. 2m5f will be better.

After send off as 7/2 favourite in a Class 3 Hcp Chase here in Newbury over 2m5f and stumbled on the first and got hampered pulled up.

Taking the Bangor form and ignoring the last race with in mind that it was sent off as fav in much better race in Class 3 last time with the lower fencs and over best distance I see this horse with great chances today. Has same jockey with Tinkler again like in Bangor.


Summary: Today was a bad day for the selections, i would have seen both actually how they perform but both fell or stumbled immideately and got Unseated. Also my worry with Bobs selection was a bit there, as the horse seemed to be outpaced in the race. Today we were both unlucky and hopefully soon there are more interesting horses to follow. All guys a good weekend with loads of racng action. Cheers rade!

sorry I left before I saw this post Rade - I would have reminded you that daly horses come with a very big health warning - the fall of Kingsmere simply underlines you have to be very wary of all Daly's runner s mate - having said all that mine ran a stinker could not get into the race and should have believed my own notes and look for a run back at Fontwell and deeper ground !

What do you mean with health warning mate, does it mean that the horse is ill? Where can I get such information?

By health warning he means "danger sign" - nothing (hopefully) to do with the horses well being!

Martins right am sorry the term I use is misleading - animals that are reluctant to pass line up or jump off with the others has a lil note against them saying "health warning" in my book. its a health warning against the bank balance even if its well in and being backed - it has those traits that could cost and gives emphasis to a back to lay punt rather than outright win
