One of the obvious problems on here, besides the obvious one of tipping a winner, is tipping something that remains a price. To do that you almost have to tip something that isn't really fancied. Not easy. I was going to put up Sir Busker (I can already see Oisin taking a pull), but having backed him earlier when he was generally 25/1 look at the price now. Almost halved. Big field, might be on the wrong side, it now isn't worth it, particularly with just 4 places.

My other two options were relatively impressive point winners that have gone to smaller stables. I will go with the first of the two because of the two, I prefer the jock on this one.

4.50 Uttoxeter Dooyork EW

It shouldn't really contract because the stable isn't in great form, and don't get bumper winners.

Good luck all.

Thanks, it won't make any difference if it follows the pattern of running like a drain, but not great news that now only two places and a general 11/1 is now a general 8/1. Third wouldn't be a great position to finish.

Another dud. Drifted late from 7/1-10/1. I wonder why?

Travelled like much the best horse and looked like it was going to win by daylight yet ends up not even beating the leader. Pleased for the trainer that he can afford to throw away winning opportunities like that.

Oh This Is Us - 4.30 Ascot

Good luck today everyone.

I've gone for Prison Break, 5pts EW, 4.50 Catterick, currently around a 10-1 shot.

Prison Break was returning from a six week break last month at Hamilton (12f, soft) in a 3YO handicap that included three last-time-out winners and he shaped quite well in finishing fourth behind them, particularly as he didn't have the smoothest of trips.

His mark has been eased two pound which allows him into this slightly easier grade, while the return to 14f shouldn't be an issue as he won over this trip at Redcar in June.

happysandwich didn't post on the selections thread, will someone copy it over?
By:

When: 16 Oct 21 18:50
By some miracle we appear to be winning at the moment, but likely we will end up being pipped unless that Gosden horse is useless. We could do with it contracting a couple of points so the place points don't matter.

Commiserations china. I think they are forwarding my selections straight to the weighing room. About the only thing I got right was Murphy taking a pull. Reminded me of Bell Rock, in that it had loads of course form, was supported at big odds (25/1-9/1) and then runs the worst race of it's career.

Nice one Andrew CoolCool

Well he was useless, but the others were even more useless. Our best chance was probably a lengthy delay at the stalls. A masterclass of thievery.

Well done Andrew, your winner nearly got us an unlikely win.

Neither team had scored any points at the start of play, but we had two selections in hand, so fair to say we were in a good position. Despite this, we somehow ended up with three selections in the same massively competitive handicap, two of them on the complete rags of the field. Unbelievable, Jeff.
By:

Now for the 'good' news.

We're playing for fourth place, but the two teams we're likely to be in competition with for that spot have had their solo rounds and we're still to play them.

So unless the Mob have an outstanding solo round, out destiny is still in our own hands.

I was going to make the same point as George about the remaining fixtures. The bad news being we play the Demons next week.

As for the selections it probably isn't best tactics to have three in a big field handicap, but it is not as if we have had a flood of winners at shorter prices. That massively competitive handicap ended up being won very easily by a very well backed horse.

All we can do is keep on battling and hope it turns, preferably as soon as next week.

Good morning Guys

We were denied a win by 50p by our rivals last EW selection finishing 3rd. Sad

I thought i would revert to my usual MO of lower prices although i was expecting 6/4 on Trueshan (that would have given us the win) but 2 NR's put paid to that. To be honest i don't think recent form counts for a lot in this comp anyway, it's more how individuals approach it.

As intimated already maybe we should consider this and we're certainly not out of it, we only need 4th place to reach the next stage. It's akin to the ice hockey league in Sweden, finish in the top 8 and you can end up as champions.

Good luck to all this week.

Just had another look, and if we don't get three wins it will be very difficult. What look to be our two main rivals play each other next week. A draw is unlikely so if we lose our match we will be 3 points behind with two matches left. Even if we win the last two it will be most likely out of our hands.

So despite the Demons running away with it realistically we need to turn them over.

I should have hung on really, though looks like it may be a low scoring affair again, who knows.
