Blue Jack appeals as improver and showed an excellent turn of foot in both races this season. Does need to improve again, but could do just that. Perhaps given too much to do last time out? Sire matured late in career to be top class. But essentially impressed with the way he quickened in his last race. Having one run in this class may well have brought him on.

Yeah that's it, not really checked if it's true but one of his more interesting theories imo.

Am with you man from atlantis. I know Blue Jack is predominantly a hold up horse, but at the start (drawn 1) he crossed over behind all the other horses drawn high. Easily lost 4 lengths from doing this, and was about 8 lengths off the pace at the furlong pole. Equiano just dominated from the front, and BJ made up the most ground from off the pace, given way too much to do.
Don't know the sectionals, so not sure if he was just going past tired horses.. and I'm guessing he is going to switch to behind the pace again, but at least there are only 8 other runners this time.. so theoretically to find cover he won't be as far back. Anyway am definitely taking a chance 7/1 again.. or 15/2 if I'm lucky. GL all. |

ryanwe did you get 7/1. Out all day yesterday and every bookie I tried had shortened. Returned home later in the day to find Laddies had just shortened to 6/1. Needed that extra point to justify backing. Maybe ew money but there is money for Blue Jack
 Can't bring myself to part with readies at 6/1 or less. |

Dascombe said it was his best chance of a winner on the morning line. Said he had 8 runners today.

Spin Cycle will run a huge race today. Ran fresh last time out on first run for the season. I expect there will be loads of improvement today........

Yeah MFA, I managed to get 7's with PP.. but I didn't put all the money I wanted on it as I was hoping someone would go 15/2! So majority of my bet is at 13/2. B365 were 7/1 and 1/4 odds yesterday too, but I've just done it to win. Think he is probably too short now, but you are going to be gutted if he wins and you weren't on! Anyway, glad to hear Dascombe really bullish about his chances today.. looking forward to it. GL if you play.

I was disappointed by the way Blue Jack was ridden today. I didn't back the horse but Mr Kingscote didn't get Blue Jack settled and saw far too much daylight. Gone from one extreme to the other. Last time out very much overdid the hold up tactics....this time had plenty of opportunity to settle behind the leaders and come late again, but didn't take his chance to do this. Worth giving one more chance in the grade. Having said that Kingsgate Native was obviously the best horse in the race and at his best always likely to win...couldn't back him first time out because of poor record in previous seasons. Now he's been gelded a horse to follow in future seasons!!!
