Interesting races worth reviewing

09/11/19 Delta R3: Even money fav cruising 3 lengths in front with less than a furlong to run at 1.01 and reacts to change of whip arm, bulks left and hits the rail. Just beaten into second.

The very next race, horse pulls well clear, goes 1.01, pulls up lame, you couldn't write it

£331 traded at 1.01.

3rd race 2.8k traded at 1.01

Delta R5: Nothing interesting happened. Phew!

I lied, there's a 2nd vs 1st objection! Could we see three 1.01 gubbs in a row?!

OMG he's been DQ'd! Three 1.01 gubbs in a row it is at Delta!

The winner didn't even trade 1.01 at all despite winning by a good neck. Running scared or run out of money.

Was going to say that, 1.01 backers broke or scared.

Having had 3 lose at 1.01 in a night they would need the next 300 to win to break even on levels.

Crazeeeeeeeee

Some of the tracks are so far behind that you would need to be crazy to lose your money at those prices.

8th race at Aqueduct today the favourite 8 horse led the 9 who looked to be struggling as they turned into the stretch, only for the 9 to come back and lead before the furlong poll. Then 8 battled back ahead with less than a furlong to run and looked comfortable again trading a little at 1.01 before the 9 horse rallied and just caught the win by a nose on the line.

Race 14 at Woodbine on 15th Dec a remarkable jockey save on the 1 horse leaving the gate and went on to win! The commentator didn't even bother to mention it!

Race 1 at Parx today the winning 6 horse won with the jockey unseating about 2 yards over the finish line.

Parx race 8 today the fav horse 7 looked completely beaten even with just 50 yards to go and somehow made up the gap to win on the wire. Plenty of 1.01 traded on the loser, I imagine there must have been some big odds laid on the winner but didnt catch how much.

Parx race 2 today in the stretch. What was going on? Havent watched any replay yet but looked like the 4 jockey was whipping the 3, then the 3 jockey held onto the 4 horse before pushing him away. Looking forward to the head-on of this...

Looks like the jockey on the 3 horse was actually clinging onto the jockey of the 4 horse for dear life as the 1 horse lent in. 1 (the winner) was DQ'd.

Here's the replay of the crazy race at Parx. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DlPeYmSXCA8&feature=emb_logo

R11 at Delaware this evening they had an Arabian race with 5 duplicate entries. Horse numbers went through 2B, 3C, 4D and 5X. They didn't even have stall number boards for 4D and 5X and someone had made up some with paint!

Race 7 at Charles Town tonight (09/07/20 US date). Fav out clear in front coming into the final turn and the horse decided to veer off the track back to the stables rather than finish the race.

Proper mickey mouse racing this evening capped off with a 60/1 shot beating a 100/1 shot in the last at Evangeline. The exacta paid $1,965!!!

Race 8 at Mountaineer 06/09/20 (US time): The even money favourite Without Malice was clear and coasting about 1 furlong out when the horse reacted to the whip and just stopped running. Eventually finished 4th. At least 3 horses traded at 1.01 in-running.

Length ahead and going well. Likely winner. Imagine probably about 1.5ish at the time.

Only Woodbine covered by Betfair until 11pm!

Labor Day on Monday so Monmouth ran then instead of today. No more Monmouth on Friday until next year. NYRA run on a Friday but they are on a week break between Saratoga and Belmont.
