The 2026 Longshot Thread

It only has two completions over hurdles. It won't be off today

Not off a yard.

33s Purest and 22s The Calt, with hills, mate.

Both qualify as longshots, before any pedants pull us up.

That's a rick on Purest, this is his track and his race. But the 33s is gone, expecting 10s or less by Friday.

Worried about 5000, but that's the only danger.

Backed Island Run ew. Newbury 2.40. 33s 5 places.

Shame, Robi. Thought he was coming to 10 length that!

Yeah. Was looking good between the last 2.. Never mind.

My bad. I didn't realise the non-completion wouldn't have counted as a run. Just checked the result. Certainly reads like another day is pencilled in somewhere along the line.

I'll check if it gets a mark Monday morning.
