By:
Nt sure - looks a weak renewal with 3/4 standouts, nothin else can win
|

By:
I wont say weak renewal actually - it lacks depth is a better way to put it

By:
Safe to say fanunalter and most of luca's string have lost it, might be tempted with premio loco when more firms price it up.

Junoob also seriously on the improve but probably not up to this class.

Beaten Up - Premio Loco - Junoob and Fanunalter if he finds some form

What do you fancy Stevo1? I think it's a good betting heat at the moment, Premio Loco looks like the class horse if he turns up (I'm ignoring Beaten Up who won't run)but doesn't really stay 1m2f and had his chance a couple of years ago. Does he carry a penalty as a group 2 winner last year?
Junoob shouldn't be good enough, the Trial for this was a woeful race with Tinshu the yardstick there showing the form was nothing great. I fancy two at slightly bigger prices who should be good enough (horses rated in double figures need not apply really). How many bookies do we think will price this up? I don't want to get too involved until the draw as a double figure draw will be a massive disadvantage. |

Billies and Badblokes priced up now amongst others, will wait tbc, jockey booked.

Cai Shen bein absolutely smashed up
![]() |
|
By:
Looks like Cai Shen will be running then, very happy about that as I've backed Cai Shen and Circumvent. They look two of the more likely sorts to give their running but their chances can still be massively compromised by the draw so 1 and 2 would be nice!

By:
As long as not double figure draw,dependant on how many show.

By:
Who rides Cai Shen?
|
|
By:
Pretty sure Richard Hughes said on Twitter that he takes the ride. None of Hannon's are jocked up yet on Saturday so assume he'll be on all of them.
|
|
By:
Jamie Spencer is down to ride Cai Shen.
|

By:
Where did you find that out twm? Think that's a good booking as long as he rides him prominently.

Though she had a realtively poor season last year, on the pick of her form at this distance, Myplacelater has as good a chance as anything.
Decent draw, new stable may freshen her up and 14s is worth a small interest e/w |

By:
Bad draws doc.

By:
Yeah I hoped at least one would get a good draw! My third choice was Vivacious Vivienne and she's in 10 so my tricast doesn't look too hot. Having said that you can do alright from out there, just need to break fast and get a good position. Most of the pace seems high this year so might not be a disaster if the low drawn horses take a pull and the high drawn horses shuffle across.
I think it's impossible to find a perfect horse for the race this year, the better horses are coming into it without a run, the draw has hit some strong fancies, quite a few are better over shorter, a couple are better over further. Even Junoob, who looks pretty solid, doesn't exactly look the winner if you look at his formlines with Tinshu who was 25/1 for this race before being withdrawn. Probably means a length will separate about six horses. |

By:
Tom Dascombe has improved Junoob from a class 6 gelding to a Listed winner in only four races.
Also similarly improved the filly Libys Dream from class 5 to Listed winner in five races. I'm not sure what has changed at Manor House Stables (the swimming pool?) but he has certainly made his mark this year with those two. Amy Weaver and Mike Mullineax are probably wondering what they missed in those two. I'm taking the improvement to continue on Saturday. Check out the similarities with previous winner Adiemus in 2002. |

Trends for the past 10 runnings (http://tinyurl.com/6q35egc):
Age (Win-Place-Runners) 3yo: 0-1-1 4yo: 5-5-48 5yo: 0-8-35 6yo: 4-1-25 7yo+: 1-5-25 Since the inauguration of this race in 1998, 13 of 14 winners were aged 4 to 6. The only winner aged 7+ was a multiple listed winner that was trained in Italy, having his first run in GB. Official Rating Horses rated 100 or higher: 8-14-69 Horses rated 99 or lower: 1-5-44 Horses with no rating: 1-1-20 9 of last 10 winners were officially rated 100 or higher and the exception did not have an official rating as it was his first start in Britain but did win a listed race by 2 lengths on previous start. Recent/Past Form 7 of 10 winners won last time out (2 others finished 2nd & 4th in listed, other was 10th in group 1) 10 of 10 winners won 1 of their last 2 all-weather starts 7 of 10 winners had already run that year (3 of last 4 were having first run that year) 9 of 10 winners won over 1M 2F or further 8 of 10 winners had previously run 1 to 5 times on the all-weather 10 of 10 winners had previously won on the all-weather 6 of 10 winners had won at Lingfield (2 of 4 exceptions were having first course start) 10 of 10 winners had won at class 2 level or above Since the race became a group 3, 5 of 6 winners had won a listed or group race 10 of 10 winners had won a race worth 14K+ Other Races Lingfield Winter Derby Trial winner (Junoob): 1191296 (3-1-7) lingfieldpark.co.uk Handicap winner (Emerald Wilderness): 161620 (2-1-6) 4 of 10 winners had run in the Lingfield Winter Derby Trial, finishing 1113 3 of 10 winners had won Lingfield handicap over 1M 2F to 1M 4F in Jan/Feb 2 of 10 winners (2 of last 3) ran in the Quebec Stakes, finishing 51 2 of 10 winners (last 2) ran in the Churchill Stakes, finishing 11 2 of 10 winners (2 of last 3) ran in the Wildflower Stakes, finishing 92 2 of 10 winners ran in the James Seymour Stakes, finishing 23 Trainers Richard Hannon (1-1-6) is the only trainer with a runner this year to have trained the winner in the past 10 years. Clive Cox (0-1-1) saddled the runner-up last year. David Barron hasn’t saddled a runner in this in past 10 years, his last runner in the race was Sergeant York in 2001, who won at 25/1. Draw Horses drawn 1 to 7: 7-8-70 Horses drawn 8 to 14: 3-12-64 There is slight preference for horses drawn 7 or lower. Price 8 of 10 winners were priced 8/1 or below. No very strong trend on the prices with 8 of the 10 winners coming from the first 5 in the betting but there have been a few surprises at 25/1 and 14/1 in last 10 years. Favourites (5-1-12) have won of 5 of the last 10 giving a level stakes profit of 4.25. Summary: Based on the trends from the past 10 years you are looking for a horse: • Aged 4 to 6 • Officially rated 100+ • Won last time out (or ran well in a class 1 race) • Won over 1M 2F+ • Won 1 of last 2 all-weather starts • Previously run 1 to 5 times on the all-weather • Course winner (or having first start at Lingfield) • Won at listed or group race worth 14K+ • Drawn 1 to 7 • Priced 8/1 or below |

Was on Circumvent e/w ran a cracker despite drifting for last 2 days in market,little saver on Loco as was too big a price.
So much for draw, as higher nos got in position due to lack of pace. |

By:
Stevo 1, Congratulations on backing the winner and the big odds third each way. Shame you didn't see fit to name either of them on this thread until two hours after they crossed the line.

By:
Li was on hols mate at Festival sure you were? Sorry bout that,if you read thread correctly think you may have been able to work out horse i backed.
So not on here as regular as usual,fwiw only had little saver on Loco just about made profit as main bet on Circumvent to win! |
|
By:
Stevo1, I was still smarting from having backed Cai Shen (before the draw came out) when posting the above. Thanks for a more gracious reply than it merited. Got one for the Lincoln yet?
|

By:
Fine Li he was bit unlucky tbh,waiting for draw re Lincoln not my fav race, at moment Smarty Socks fwiw big improver last season, maybe too high in handicap now?
|
|
By:
Smarty Socks drawn 22 of 22, have also backed Cocozza @ 10s. Good luck with any selections, cant wait for Aintree tbh.
|
|
By:
Have backed Light From Mars ew. Agree Cocozza an intriguing runner.
