  • Hi

    Do like Cousin Pete

    Each Way @ 25-1 [Skybet] BOG & NRNB

    Thought with a better ride would have beaten Sir Jack Yeats at Market Rasen last month. The winner and 3rd have won since, and think Pete on ground with any good in it at the Festival and over this longer trip is a live outsider.

          The horse that did beat him... Sir Jack Yeats gets a mention on the RP website... *Sunbets are 15/1 for him, not seen that price for a long time!! haha

          Pietro Innocenzi: Sir Jack Yeats
          St James's Place Foxhunter (3.40 Friday)
          He has been revitalised by the recent switch to Richard Spencer's yard, winning his last two starts in extremely game style. The race he landed at Market Rasen is working out, while he came up the hill really well at Kelso last time to edge out the useful Cultram Abbey. He doesn't have much to find on the figures with the market leaders and there's no reason why he won't continue to improve at the age of seven.


          How confident would you be of him reversing the form TOTF (and welcome)

          • Thanks Kev

            Pretty confident, has since won a PTP easily on good ground.

            Travelled like the best horse in the race at Market Rasen, but thought jockey gave him a bit too much to do. Though was getting weight from Sir Jack who admittedly being the younger horse at 7yo [Pete is 10] has more scope for improvement.

              On gault

              Sam Waley Cohen hasn't ridden a course winner in nearly 5 yrs from 41 rides. Mark (the Couch) Winstanley might be right about him?

              • Soft ground brings Foxrock right into this
                Although course form not great

                  Foxrock seems under the radar of the ones at the top of the market doesn't he.

                  I guess no-one really is keen on him because of his Cheltenham record?

                                Terrific effort to dead heat 3rd @ 66-1
