Epsom Derby 2021

[Supermaster]

Am I a lone idiot in thinking Adayar has a chance at a stupid price ?
Just flicking through his form he looks all stamina and the better ground (assuming it does stay quick) may well bring improvement, 66/1 for those with 365 accs looks massive although waiting for the extra places is probably the sensible play...

Well spotted Istabraq

[FinalFurlong91]

I think its set up for a shock result ista

Don't think anything sets a high standard

like youth spirit, lone eagle and gear up at big prices

What has bolshoi ballet really done? Not a lot imo, certainly not enough to be 6/4 for the Derby

The horses hes beaten in Ireland are useless

Well I got it right

Just picked the wrong outsiders hahaha

[That Horse]

One of the craziest outcomes of today is that Mohaafeth is now 5/2 joint fav for King Edward at Ascot.

He hasn't even proven he stays!

[FinalFurlong91]

I really hope Lone Eagle runs in the queen's vase over 1m6f

Bet they wish they'd left him in after the watering/rain

[BigChaang]

I’ve been playing Adayar and One Ruler who I think has been totally forgotten.
The AOB exodus has probably killed the hope of any 5/6 places being offered, every chance 4 places will appear after tomorrows decs but I’ve secured upwards of 33s on both so have the price.
All eyes on the draw...

Nice One Istabraq . , Well Done there , Lovely price too ! ..

[Lobos]

Balshoi Ballet struck into very early in the race which probably accounts for his poor showing.

[Faugheen_Machine]

Great pick Ista. Not a moment's worry - well done mate

Come on Lobos haha simply nowhere near good enough.

Adayer was a very good winner, outstayed them all imo, who needs John Leeper Kirby haha!

Ps not a penny on.

Istabraq Cracking pick, from what I remember of the the Sandown trial he took a good while to get going but he handled the track beautifully yesterday

[Quevega]

Well done Ista.
The jockey and horse deserve enormous credit.
The horse was brave and gave it everything and Kirby was excellent at the start, when muscling his way past the other low drawn horses.
Then the squeeze through on the rail was Ballsy.
I would say at least 2/3rds of the jockeys riding would have bottled that and looked to switch.
I've seen world class jockeys not go for gaps twice as big as they're frightened of going over the rail.

Obviously it's worth pointing out that I'd jump off a horse as soon as it hit about 10mph

Running for a mile with a gash on my leg after being kicked by a horse wouldn't he my idea of fun but I get what you are saying

P S. I didnt have a penny on either. Sort of wished I'd gone against my principles and backed the 2nd at 150/1 after Saxon flagged up the stall 10 stat but hey ho, that's life.

[Lobos]

Nice bet Ista. When he went from 66/1 to 16/1 in 5 minutes before the off you just sensed something special was going to happen. Super performance.

[Ribocco]

150s still available on bet365, may be worth a small stake punt each way

Thank you for this post. Decided to have a stab at 150/1.

[Ribocco]

Wow, stall 10 won half the races !!

Richard Hannon on Mojo Star

He is a Sea The Stars colt who was second at Newbury on debut last season, I thought that he had won but he was beaten in a photo. He has grown and has done extremely well.

We are going to start him off in a novice race and he could be a very good horse, I hope. He is definitely one of the dark horses for the year. He looks like a champ, is by the right stallion and has got no end of ability.

Also thanks for this one in the first place
