Thanks gents - I'm very cynical about these French horses bought for big money after winning a 3yo hurdle in April. If they're really that good, I'm like Gene Hackman, wondering why are the French Connections so keen to sell. The list of expensive imported failures this season is getting longer each month.

Incredibly was also a PLACE lay but didn't look at that before the race. VWD.
You have to say G.Moore is in the top 10 for trainers you want to lay at odds-on especially at the premier tracks. |

Good morning Guys,
Many thanks to all for posting in my absence, much appreciated as always. VWD Alan, good analysis and valid reasoning to get a 4/11f well beaten. Additional WD to Trusty with another shortie after the Nicky Henderson hot-pot (2/7f) earlier in the week. Hope you both made plenty (not Gary Moore fans then  ).My 11.10 flight was delayed (albeit only around 40 minutes) but immigration and slow baggage collection meant i didn't get to see much racing at all, but i managed to see last few flights of the Tolworth. I doubt we saw anything out of the ordinary there. Good luck and have a nice Sunday all. |

Like G Moore but between 8/1 and 12/1 not short price and especially not odds-on.
Just scanned through today's racing at Taunton and P Nichols has two unraced 4yr olds in each division of the maiden. To date there have been 7 four year old runners with no wins, both are around 1/2 on and my initial thoughts was to lay both and I probably will for small fun bet but thought I would try an e/w double on Park D'Amour and Danton at 8/1 and 7/2. |

The form of the race won by Afadil in France, a maiden over 1m3f at Craon, in no way justifies his 255,000 euros price tag. The next four finishers in that race now have career records on the flat of 0/9, 0/10, 0/4, and 0/15. The magic words 'bred by the Aga Khan' seemed to have persuaded the buyers to go overboard, but the success rate of horses with that background is nothing like as good as it was ten plus years ago.
He might well win today as the opposition are almost all running to get a low handicap mark, but he wouldn't be one to follow when stepped up in class. To be fair, the 5th placed horse did win a maiden hurdle last month, but it might have been the worst one run at Craon for quite some time, as they took 5m 17s to cover 2m 1f, pretty slow even on heavy ground. |

Amazing how they both drifted big time during the morning. E/W double landed.
