Morning folks
Settling down and a good nights sleep, after these 3 days debacle, I have found a good one away from the Festival and a good winner is a good winner wherever!
Also two more I almost went with yesterday who I think are value and we have profit to play with. This is my approach to the Festival as I said at the start of the week so I cannot damage as I put a lot of money to one side. I am well up to this point so we go again and worst case scenario at this awful one (hope not) is that I will finish levels your devils. The selection at Fakenham I will put on from this bank. Back later for any Saturday bets
4:15 Fakenham
IP UP – 1.25 Pt E.W 13/2 Bet365 3 places, 11/2 generally (BOG & drifting)
Narrowly beaten in this very race by the the useful Tapley, that was a strong effort yet she finds herself 5lb lower today after an aborted chase campaign which is my ONLY worry coming back to hurdles but this must have been the target, given the trainer has ONLY ever sent 4 horses out here, 2 winners, a short head 2nd and a narrow 3rd! Added to that, the jockey has a cracking record also and is indeed 1 from 1 for the stable so well worth a bet at the price and generous place terms.
2:00 Cheltenham
NORMAN FLETCHER – 1/2 Pt E.W 70/1 boost Hills/Lads 5 places 66/1 5 generally drifting so could get bigger & BOG
5:20 Cheltenham
ELECTRIC MASON – 1/2 Pt E.W 33/1 Bet365 6 places 36/1 5 boost 5 generally drifting so could get bigger & BOG
