2023 Antepost Flat Racing

[Morley Street]

Second Wow performance and second legitimate Arc contender in consecutive days… very impressive from Savethelastdance… I won’t be looking any further for the Oaks winner

[HoldenTheReins]

Savethelastdance and Arrest were very good today.

Concerned about what the form might turn out to be like with the ground etc.

That being said a 3 year old filly that has gone in soft ground like that automatically makes her an Arc bet.

[FinalFurlong91]

2nd rated 90 3rd rated 80

She couldnt have won any easier but wouldnt be my type of bet

The form of her maiden reads well

But would I be backing her at 13/8 for the oaks, not a hope in hell

Absolutely woeful price

Why not double her with Boogie Woogie in the Alary, as if BW wins that, you’ll want to be on her in the Oaks

Nothing too exciting today so going for a little trixie on the following:

Kings Lynn
Theoryofeverything
Changingoftheguard

Starting to get the feeling Kings Lynn could just be one of those sprinters that regularly looks unlucky. But in this class and conditions I'm giving him one more chance.

Quite fancy Changingoftheguard to turn into a decent stayer this year. And obviously won well here last year. Might end up with a single there if the first two don't go well

Any fancies in the Chester Cup tomorrow? I've backed Metier in a small each way but draw in 14 puts me off a bit. Nothing too standout in the race. Calling the wind I'm also considering.

Call my bluff seems popular. If he's to win then the fav must be a cert in the last!

[BigChaang]

Boardman - 1-30. - u/p. , and Call my Bluff 3-15. - 3rd. at chester , for me today . .
In with Baradar - 2-40 ascot , and Parramount , in the Swinton hdl at haydock tomorrow .

[Morley Street]

Rajinsky for me today in the Chester Cup… good third last year in a better race and ground has come right

[Benjy23]

About time one of them won. Everything I mentioned been well backed (into fav) and beaten so far. Even Metier was 12s at the time and won at 5s. Was ready to give up

I read Matt Brocklebank's article on Sporting Life that was convincing enough for me to back Metier. As soon as the camera angle changed coming into the home straight you could see he was going to bring it home.

Will give it a read now. He has an obvious case though, I was just unsure on the jockey getting a good position form stall 14. But she's given it a decent enough ride to be fair, as much as any winning ride is a good one. Although I think probably good for more than the winning distance in the conditions.

You've probably got to want to see this but...

Had a little each way at 33s, and few nibbles at 70s and 80s win only on the exchange, on Sir Dancealot for the Victoria Cup tomorrow.

Used to be a near top class 7f horse. Winner of four Grade 2 races and formally rated 117 in his peak with Dominic Elsworth. That was obviously a while back and he's not actually won since being with John Buttler but he has shown he still retains some ability. 98 will be the lowest mark he'll have ever raced off. Finished a decent 5th of 17 off 103 in his final start last term, in a not dissimilar contest over C&D and in similar conditions. Had a couple of spins on the all weather recently to get up to fitness, hopefully with today in mind.

And the final piece that's flagged him for me was the jockey booking. Gerald Mosse back in the saddle for the first time since the old days with Elsworth, when he was riding him to G2 wins. Seemingly coming over for just this ride? I'm sure there's more to his visit like but makes me think they fancy him a bit.

Of course there'll be some on an upward curve he's up against but I think the handicapper has given him a bit of a chance. And I'd love to see him run well. Actually a bigger price than I expected to be honest. Which maybe tells a differ story.

Pensioner reverse forecast with safe voyage?

Pensioner reverse forecast with safe voyage?

I'm sold. Accidental Agent for the tricast. All 9yo+, former G2 or G1 winners. And drawn pretty close together. It's meant to be

[Benjy23]

That went well

Scrap that. Found them on ATR. Any bets at Longchamp?

[FinalFurlong91]

I like valimi in the poulains at 7/1

Seems the play at the prices given he's already beaten the favourite and is trained by the excellent Jean Claude rouget who will have him spot on for today

then lindy at 8/1 in the pouliches

She finished 2nd to blue rose cen last time closing at the line after having to wait for a gap

Blue rose cen got a very very easy lead that day and can see the case for lindy outrunning her odds

Singles and an e/w double
