What are you backing Today? Part 2

Thoughts for Saturday

Thunder Rock is out of the hurdle at Wetherby. I'm not sure why. Nevermind. Glad I held off an ante post bet on him.

In the Charlie Hall. Hang In There (E/W) has run so well in so many high class handicap chases, with a feasible 8lbs to find on official ratings. He'd need a couple to seriously underperform to win but stranger things have happend. He'll do for me each way.

Over at Ascot, my old friend Malystic (E/W) runs in the 2 mile handicap chase and gets his decent ground aswell. He ran a cracker last time out and it was lovely to see him back in form. Each way, why not, eh.

Over at Del Mar. As said on the Breeders thread, I fancy Emily Upjohn (Win) can land the turf. I wouldn't begrudge old Rebels Romance, but I really believe this will be a hotter renewal than what he won two years ago.

In the classic, the special horse City Of Troy should win. I can't help using the pinstickers each way guide though and am having an each way on longshot Pyrenees (E/W) as perhaps he can out run the odds in this higher calibre race and run into a place. If Vertical Blue could do it at similar odds at Longchamp a couple weeks ago when I was actually on, you never know, eh.

Good luck all tomorrow, keep making it pay.

Good luck with your Ascot bets Marb I like Saint Segal and Amirite in the two big handicap chases, both market leaders too short.

I'd hate to see Emily Upjohn winning though tbh, that stable is going down the pan and she's an unreliable shitehound imo.
 
Cheers fella.

Yes I like Saint Segal aswell. I thought you'd be keen on him.

My loyalty to Malystic clearly getting the better of me.

Re-Emily. We'll find out tomorrow. Apparantly it's her last run. Good luck with Shahryah.

Hang in There for me too. Every chance IMO that a couple will underperform (he’ll need them to as Marb has said)
Couldn’t have BMG first time out at evens or thereabouts with plenty of PFN horses needing a run and Conflated and The Real Whacker both seem to have jumping issues. Can’t see French Dynamite winning on today’s ground giving 4lb to horses he’d be getting lumps from in a handicap and Sam Brown usually needs his first couple of runs

Well I've had a shite day.

Can Pyrenees outrun the odds?

Into 40s now.
