Scottsville now Greyville Monday.. 🤔

Hollywood Star will be there... getting on first 4 places.... last time out checked at crucial stage.... should have been in top 4 imvho.... including in all bets....

I never saw your comments.Not sure were they where actually.
But you would be one that I would read as I know you are honest,most of the rest with their first timers I will skip.
So I didn't read your comments as probably about 90% of the punters so what I commented on was what I saw on face value.
Usually stable jockeyon the fancied horse but obviously there are exceptions like today.
If you didn't know and saw the betting changes what would you think?
And yes I was wrong here as you stated about Donald riding the horse every day but we often have scheming going on with our racing,the term greeffed comes to mind.

And Naresh this hasn't changed my mind about the Miller stable being the best with babies,just this time the horse was too green and the jock didn't manage to keep it straight.

Bloody hard game this..... need to recover on Valerias Dream... in the lucky last....

And one more thing....
Yes you didn't price up the race but the bookies don't know every first timer and will usually price up the horse with the stable jock on the shorter of the couplings.
The trainers know that and I have seen it many times with our racing when they want a better price that is what they do.

@ Durbs. Race 5 is a race you can complain about all day. The favourite, Botz, never even make the PA punters happy.

On paper its suppose to be a certainty. PeterD post gives an analysis of the race.

Racing looks very difficult today but better options in the UK where William Buick the man to follow and a couple of proper horses run in Ireland.

Sorry to highjack the thread .....thought you need another option?

well done Oscar

Thankfully I listened to Daryn Burroughs who thought on pedigree it would not get the distance and he was right.

Although he got it right. Its from the same family of Double Superlative. Fly By Night won the Mercury Sprint the dam of Botz.
