Alainmaar in the 4.05 Epsom is 6/4 to lay in this class 2 handicap . Now this coulb be the proverbial good thing / group horse in a handicap , but at the price it must be a lay . Quirky track ( only previous winning form on stiff flatish tracks ) drawn 12 of 15 a definite minus . I am not one of R Hills' critics nor am I his biggest fan , certainly wouldn't punnish the horse to win first time out , especially if there were bigger fish to fry later on in the season , and finally 1st time out , how fit is the horse ( Jarvis' 3yr old maidens have been doing ok ) and will it run too fresh , not good at Epsom .
At the price , a must lay . Greylami eah way for me .

Why is it a must lay?
Surely you just treat it as a nice and tasty ew race if you not fancy the fav.

365 were 9/4 I think opening show last night on this animal.

16 runners and I would have agreed with the EW , and as said I think Greylami is fair e/ w bet . But with 3 places and the fav likely to fill one of them , I think the value is to lay the jolly at the price .

Bookmakers love to lay 6/4 first time out in a handicap at places like Epsom . I agree and have laid the Favourite accordingly , not too much damage if it wins , and lots of runners on my side . Oh and track also !

I still prefer the letters
The numbers confuse especially with Group races in a database

Mick Jarvis getting the races picked right now
Last year he was away with his heart problem for a while.
He is the master at selecting right races for his horses

wouldnt say either newmarket courses are flattish.

by the way- how can you have a stiff flattish track?
Report Facts April 21, 2010 4:34 PM BST
a galloping track, as opposed to a flat tight track like catterick or chester.

Apart from the dip , Newmarket is quite flat .

Newmarket ? If you think that you have never been there Slightly downhill until the turn in 1 mile plus from home . Dip is about 13/4 furlongs from home meets rising ground less than a furlong out
