Mattmu (Carl 2:10) pedigree info:- "half-brother to 6f (at 2) to 6.8f winner Penny Garcia"
No, he's a full brother. At least today's spotlight writer gets it right. The writer of last time's spotlight (at Beverley) just copied the error from the pedigree comment without checking the actual pedigree. |

Dundalk Dec 20th 2013
9-15 race ANALYSIS The favourite probably lost this weak contest by not settling adequately and BOG WAR was there to take advantage. He recalled his father with his free-going antics going down to the start, and indeed returning to the enclosure. He seems honest in his races, however, and is open to a bit of improvement in this type of grade. He has physical scope too. --------------- The Winner was - Ballyadam Brook .... NOT "BOG WAR" - who did NOT even RUN in the race.... BOG WAR - Won the race BEFORE - at 8-45. |

Richard Johnson Took keen hold, held up, pushed along and headway after 3 out, ran green when leading before next, backed off last, headed early run-in, kept on towards finish but not time to recover (op 2/7 tchd .......................... This is such a shocking analysis that I'm adding it here. Horses do not run green on their 12th rules start! |
|
By:
Horses cannot run green on their 12th run ffs! "Green" in this context means "inexperienced" being derived from the word "greenhorn".
More shocking stuff from the rancid organ. Are you reading Bruce? |

Tangolan in the 4:35 Stratford today. Well done to the Spotlight writer for doing his own work and not just going by the RP database, as the horse didn't fall last time. He blundered and shot the jockey off, but quite easily found a leg and stayed on his feet.

Sell Rafael Nadal at 44 for Wimbledon on 100 index.
(Bottom of the very same page, Sporting Index quote 40-45). Advised price therefore does not exist to the Post readers. "Tom made 30.5 points on Pricewise at Royal Ascot with these 6 winners". Profit claimed forgets to mention the Rule 4's. In Pique Sous's case, there were 5/1 and 7/1 non-runners. |

5.35 Naas, 2nd June
"Pit Stop was only having his second start and was sent straight to the front. He set a fairly brisk tempo and paid the price in the closing stages." It appears the analyst got the 2 Micky Halford runners mixed up. Warbird was the one sent from the front. |
|
By:
And if you were doing the analysis for that race I'm surprised the analyst didn't wonder who the horse was failing to secure a clear run against the rail before going on at the finish to just miss 3rd...
Erm, that was Pit Stop. |

By:
A fair and competitive handicap. It threw up a cracking finish and a 1-2 for JP McManus with VULCANITE emerging on top.
Charlie Longsdon has got the back on top form this summer and he went in again over fences on his previous outing. He was off amark 16lb higher than when initially striking in March, but Ger Fox came over to claim 5lb and the talented Irish rider gave him a peach. He hunted round on the inside and was going easily two out. Fox waited to pounce and the response was taking when itmattered. A trip to the Galway Festival for the Plate later on is very much the plan and Fox will reportedly keep the ride. Just the three errors in one paragraph |
