2 running tomorrow off hugely reduced marks

Good stuff, thanks.

Good luck EL11.

The master returns tomorrow, Hugh Taylor, and after a modest 2024 by his high standards, he'll be looking for a big 2025. So interesting to see if Hugh takes on these potentially well-handicapped sorts.

lequinto way better than its current mark..quite simple if carroll says go it'll prob win.

gustav doesnt look anywhere near its OR78 mark though and trainers only 1 from last 60 or so.

Nice strategy EL11 and good luck. Lequinto was certainly unlucky last time out making nice headway when finally getting a run. Gustav won this race last year from a 3lb higher mark but was in much better form, a big bounce back to form needed tomorrow. Best of luck with that one.

Not sure a big bounce to form is needed for GG, only beat 1 1/4 lto running on after falling out the back of the Telly, being well supported.

lequinto way better than its current mark..quite simple if carroll says go it'll prob win.

Price too short already IMO. Why bother with scraps ay...?

2.6 now Gustav, somebody agrees.

Early markets a total waste of time.

Lequinto around the 2/1 mark about correct in my book, likewise thought has a decent chance today.
As for Gustav, Market clue could be essential before the off.
Good luck EL11

handicaps not really my cup of tea  and I prob should stay away from them tbh  ,lequinto def well in but too short for me may well win easily but professor tickle interests me ,has won off 67 8 runs ago down to 62 today with jock claiming 7 pound a 4 yo poss  not completely exposed and dropping back to 6f last few runs over 7f .blinkers usually worn left off today .28s earlier 20s now looks fair ew

Problem is with these types, you back them, then watch them shuffle around the rear of the field, never nearer etc...

Then you think 'oh, that was the plan instead...'

could equally win doing handstands and hard held though...

Lequinto and his trainer 'type' that was...

Foyles, is that an official selection, or are you just recording the ones where you start the thread yourself?

if it's wins its an official selection George no seriously not an official selection just an  opinion on Ellis thread ,tho I have backed it but as said not that clued up on h,caps so will not count whatever it does today .

Ok Foyles, good luck

Classy Clarets 4 me,although trainer of fav is in a hot spell at moment.

Not Just Yet must have an EW chance at around 100/8, at a bigger price i think Hallowed Time has possibilities EW 1st 4, young lad been getting a few chances lately just 1 winner, horse was running decent races from marks between 75-79 in Ireland in summer of 23 previously won races for E J O'Neill in France on different surfaces, might surprise.

It's a TC special and a stone cold cert. Jock won't go inside into a wall of horses tonight.

Not just yet

Lequinto, 100% record when both the clear top-weight and the favourite - 1 from 1.

oops

v poor ride think you'll agree

well done any winners

prob would have won..

IF/WHEN the right people have their money down, they don't find trouble.

Don't think even the squeeze up at the furlong pole made the difference
Should have sat closer to the pace
But, inexperienced jockey

I think plan was definitely to win it this time, but they naffed it up...

Swifty probably nailed it

Not today, thank you.

another question is if they change it's mark after that run or not....

kray twins but can you tell us the others swifty

I'd put it up 4 lbs at least...

Was there to win,just got squeezed a bit when it mattered.

13 to 8 2nd, next will be 11 to 8. No hidden riches here

lay or back this favourite then...what do we think? RPR top rated I see.

Couldn’t have Gustavia Graves in a million……

I'm going to back it with a hopeful tenner

correction , a score :)

backed at 2.62, now 3 !!

Well done EL11.

nice ride by Ms Mason

Thank you Joanna and EL11 :)

Well done EL11, whoosh.

Deary me….

Couldn’t have Gustavia Graves in a million……


  Obviously never saw its last race. ?

Ace Buried

WD Op. But...Gustav been below it's last winning mark for its last 7 runs, incl. 4 over C&D. 33/1, 33/1. 18/1, 11/1. LMAO

Ageed Cobs, but when they showed his last race a few minutes before the off , that made my mind up.

Glad you won WD

and of course .....along with his price and RPR.

Cheers cobs

Dave and his million

Another RPR top rated....get in there

I would say stick them both in your tracker for next time, but they'll probably be too short next time!
3.65 on Gustav Graves so wasn't too bad. Think there's a bit of a run to come from both of them if placed right.
Gustav Graves entered in 2 races Friday, looks like he was the one..

deary me..another 7pts spunked.

Gustav has befuddled the Ace which isn’t difficult

Starfighter also fitted your criteria EL11. 7lb below his last winning rating yesterday but at 9yo. No doubt we will all be looking at the AW this evening for a few more but was yesterday a 1 off?
