Two fine competitions

Gold Cup:

Bockos Doomie did the job for me in the Sussex Cup and no reason to desert him. No antepost on O/C and cant be bothered trawling through all the websites, unlike Irish who trawls through all my posts, hanging on my every word. He puts two and two together and makes three, or should i say tree? Well, he is Irish! Laugh

Queen Jessiej and Waikiki Lad others to consider. Droopys Addition got it in him but unreliable


Stayers:

Antigua Fire lifts the trophy if repeating his 37.37 but inconsistent starter and let me down before and still not stuck on Aayamza Royale. Some fast runners but iffy stayers

Will check for Gold Cup betting later but might wait 'til next round for the Classic

Fair double, 3.8/1 Waikiki Lad and Hiya Boyo

4/5 Antigua Fire but cant get on

3/1 Doomie okay to my reckoning

Stayers, little bet 28/1 Coolavanny Bani each-way. Ignore latest. Sure can start much better

Aye. Bani faded too quickly for a bitch with winning form over 680m for my liking. Could just as easily been Waltham Magic ante-post, but went for the bigger price
Report woodmanchester August 19, 2020 10:37 AM BST
Already backed Doomie 3/1, but topped up at 5/2 now. Will deffo come on for refresher round the Wolverhampton circuit. Got his draw in the semis and reckon the big dog will take some stopping

Gone with 7/1 Waltham Magic in Stayers. Fast and stayed on much better than trial. Bubbly Dave smart as the ultimate danger but could be reliant on finding a way through, whereas Waltham shows them a clean pair of heels

Hi Woody, only just doing the videos, it truly looks a top class competition, Just a tad concerned for Bockos Doomie(winning machine) ,I noticed he pulled himself up quite quickly after the raced had finished, now hounds do this but not something you usually see with top hounds but they can do it, is this is usual style? So a slight concern but nothing solid from the way I see things.
Report FATTIEWHITEYSLOVEADRINK August 22, 2020 2:23 PM BST
Had little go on antepost

Done a across card double

Rocket and prince 12s and 40s
Gozo and Tyson 20s 40s

Rocket is monstrous imo showing all sorts of pace got there way to early last week
Put the breaks on good half  lap early

Daddy been doing bizo got leaders chance in his heat
No play today as dinning at 8/1 last week 3/1 not grabbing me tonight

Gozo showing pace but can’t run a bend
But can see him in the final

Tyson my play of night 7/1 13/2
Got the draw showing great pace if the draw goes to plan he get nice solo out wide
Report metro john August 22, 2020 2:48 PM BST
Just watched a few of Bockos races, and he does pull up quick after the line, he knows. So no concerns.
Report woodmanchester August 22, 2020 5:10 PM BST
Big musciley dog Metro. Think just seizes up a bit sometimes by the time they reach the drop. Long way to the pick up after running 515m Hove


Gold Cup

First semi. Queen Jessiej wins tonight if away in best fashion but needs to be on her toes with sprinter Referendum alongside and Waikiki Lad fast, too

Droopys Addition showing a bit more consistency but im still not totally convinced

Bockos Dooomie highly likely to come on for his refresher round here and can brush rivals aside at the bend in the battle for rails


Stayers

First semi. We all know Aayamza Royale needs further and im not a fan of hounds who drop themselves out anyway

Second semi. Angel of the North winner Waltham Magic soon sets sail for home and can show her rivals a clean pair of heels. Ante-post play

Third semi. Granted a smooth passage, Bubbly Dave will be hard to hold

Two bets over 2/1 the Doomie/Pestana (Shelbourne) double and throwing in Bubbly Dave for a 4.2/1 treble, if lucky enough the first two strike

Wanted to lump on Jessie ( but didn't ) 'cos I've always loved her from day 1 but she has been a little inconsistent.  No more though.  She's screaming out of the boxes now and becoming something very special.  Well done team McNair and good luck in the final.

We should find out if you're right on Gonzo in the final fattie as he could well be the only wide.  Three railers through now, two more likely to go through.  Clearly a very fast dog but doesn't look too bright on the trackcraft. Can't see anything coming from behind Jessie or Droopys Addition, should either of them lead up and round.  And we still have Doomie and Boyo to go.  Great final in prospect.

Report LoyalHoncho August 22, 2020 7:51 PM BST
Like us all I like Bockos Doomie very much but he's always prone to a trap/run up mishap and while he should go deep in the Derby he doesn't strike me as a ( or the ) winner.  I would bet each of the other three semi winners a/p before I'd bet him, but that's just my view.  Hiya Boyo really starting to look the part and stamina guaranteed by the look of it.  I take it by mentioning Yarmouth you mean the Kent Derby?  If I owned Doomie I'd go for that.  Three shorter trip runs in succession would suit him imo.

I think it was the 6 that caused the problem.  The trainer told us on rptv that he consistently turned somersaults in the traps.  I think he's been trying to get out the back and might even have threatened to do so.  I'm on the 2 and am absolutely gutted - came away a dream.  lol.
