Morning folks
An always testing period, it’s a tough watch at the minute, none more so than me, who feels the pain and loss!
Not much damage but unpleasant, as this period notoriously is for me and us. Catch twenty two though as I am working for you. Once the season starts to role out, normal service will resume no doubt. It’s been a good year in the main so sticky, losing periods are inevitable, for EVERYONE in this tough but enjoyable game!
We had 4 first time outers and to say they run stinkers and were not ready is an understatement!! Awful runs given their form tied in with the horses contesting the finishes!
Again, a mention bolted up, Knickerbockerglory (nearly went win each but thought the pace would be contested) and Favoir was going well and would have placed IMO but he hurt himself and was pulled up.
Again we had smashed in the betting horses that badly underperformed. Wakool went off a silly price and was given a poor ride I felt.
The strong fancy, Hodler , ran a good race. He was a certain placer and I thought he would win a furlong out but he was beaten by an unfathomable pick and that was the theme. All the favourites in the big races blew out and that’s this time of year.
Still on we go and a quiet week so I will be back Friday throughout the day for Saturday’s action.
