Well its all a bit lonely on here. Gd/sft at the moment with more rain on the way. 1pt e/w The Betchworth Kid for me. Loves the track, laid out, back on a mark 2 lbs lower than 2yrs ago when second, should have his ground, Dale Swift takes off 5lb, trainer in form, just running into form and is a massive 20's. Easy this game!

backed betchworth last time at ascot and cant see this being 20-1 come saturday, also like montaff who was just behind in the same race and again is 20-1 with sadcrooks. more rain the better for him.
good luck with your bets.. |

Simenon looks big at 25

Senate Betchworth Kid Those three actually pass the primary stage but these don't Simeon Classic Vintage the primary stage is based upon Age, Weights, Number of runs (according to age) Form of latest runs. There's a long way to go yet though We will know more tomorrow when the decs are declared. Then there is a lot of delving into the Matrix of a number of determined factors Surprised there are selections put up at already!! |

Montaff doesn't pass the primary stage either

What horse is richard hughes on?
|
|
By:
senate
|
|
By:
^i'm sure i read somewhere it was Senate.
|
|
By:
^ Its being heavily backed. 6/1 generally (down to 9/2 with SJ). 10/1 was freely available yesterday.
|
|
By:
When the money comes for a Gosden horse in a race like this, it's usually a good idea to follow it. Glad I'm already on at 10-1.

Willing Foe for me,not that great a price but as 'they' say going the right way and loves the track
|
|
By:
senate/hughes confirmed
|
|
By:
Can't see Willing Foe liking the ground if it gets softer.
|
|
By:
May not get softer, just a shower this afternoon, loads of rain on the forecast for tomorrow but bbc video shows it skirting around us.
|
|
By:
yep would be a worry (going for WF) but pretty sure his half brother Michita went on it,but not ideal backing something which hasn't raced on the going
|
|
By:
i dont think Willing Foe will run, get on senate at 7-1, it will start fav
|
|
By:
why wont WF run Zman? thanks for any advice
|
|
By:
I want to back The Betchworth Kid in this but only if the ground is genuinely soft.
After the going description debacle at the last Donnie meeting I won't be parting with a shilling here until I see the first few races on Saturday. |
|
By:
Soft ground,it wouldnt suprise me if senate is 4-1 fav on sat. im on e/w @ 7-1. Be lucky.
|
|
By:
Completely dry night, only a millimetre of rain in my (bucket) weather centre since yesterday morning.

Saved on Simenon at Ladbrokes 16-1. Ran in the Bahrain Trophy, Voltigeur, handicap mark steadily falling, then travelled like the best horse in a 2 mile handicap at Newmarket behind Theola, patently failing to stay, having been the last horse off the bridle. Looks to have been saved for this and one of very few I'd give much chance to.

By:
plety of rain around this afternoon
|
|
By:
You in donny sint?
|
|
By:
according to a weather site no rain at all in doncaster all day
|
|
By:
Very light drizzle for the last hour, plenty up above but not much falling.
|
|
By:
cheers again TM trust you more than these websites.lol
|
|
By:
no dan but the maps i was reading suggested they'd be getting rain this afternoon and over friday night/sat morning .. has been p1ssing it down everywhere esle in the area,imo
|
|
By:
Simenon stands out for me - 14s still look too big, could be a very well handicapped horse in this
|
|
By:
Sint, we've had no rain (other than the bit of drizzle mentioned earlier) my bucket is dry and the skies are clear. Good luck all.
|
|
By:
whats the ground like iyo tm?
|
|
By:
Had a walk around on thursday and thought gd/sft, can't see there being any real change since then.
|
|
By:
gs/s in places .. dry day forecast so prop gs by 3.10. the weather charts I have been reading all week have been totally inaccurate.
|
|
By:
The soft bit is between the leger start and the 10f pole. Weather forecast have been useless as you say, less than 1/3rd inch of rain in my bucket all week.
