What are you backing Today? Part 2

[Desert Orchid]

It shouldn't beat the favourite, obviously; I just thought 10/1 was the wrong price. It's jt-2nd top on ORs with the 2/1 2nd-fav and 1lb in front of it on adjusted RPRs and rated higher than the 8/1 3rd-fav.

Not surprisingly I have the fav top on ratings , but at 10s+ Crest Of Fortune would be a cheap saver

Don't see a thread for the Reynoldstown tomorrow and there might not be enough interest to start a discrete one but I've taken 10/1 the outsider of the four, Crest Of Fortune.

Even money about the favourite might prove to be generous but the 10s about Crest Of Fortune looks wrong too. I’ve taken a bit of that as I can see the price halving as pundits highlight this over the course the day. I would be even more interested in 5/1 without the even-money favourite but only one firm is pricing that market up and they’re only 3/1. More might come online by the morning but, of course, if there is a move for COF today then the 5s will never happen

The favourite has come out. COF is now 9/2 absolute tops, generally shorter. I don't know whether to feel positive or negative about it.

How much is the rule 4 ?

How much is the rule 4 ?

Should be 50%, I think. It was even money with the same bookie.

Do you mean Neo King in the 3.15 Haydock?

I agree he’s good value at 18/1 but think Holokea might be able to reverse Windsor form. Half the price though

Sea Invasion. Ascot 4.10. Potentially well handicapped on return to hurdling.

I chanced a small wager on Jonjo O'Neil's horse Jipcot 3:00 Ascot at 11/2 boosted to 6/1 last night as his horses are in form and it his only runner at the course.
Been backed into 3/1 best price and still shortening.
Mind you when I beat the bookies on prices they rarely win!!!!
