Bells has drifter slightly on the machine but only 100 quid was matched and now he's back at 3/1 pre deductions.
Plenty time to get on so no panic.
I actually have no right for my unbeaten run to still be intact with Klassical getting stuffed yesterday.
I was just going to have a few quid on Bells of Peterboro but I am now haveing the 3***bet money I should have lost yesterday on him today plus the same gain on a safety net
I have studied the videos of the first 3 in the betting and have given them points out of 10
the first one I looked at was Gazette Bourgeoise who imressed me quite a bit.
Harry Bannister had him up with the leaders all the way and from 3 out all the others bar one were feeling the pinch.
The horse just gept galloping and even when the second tried to peg him back t was never going to happen.
I give him 7.5 out of 10
Bells of Peterboro was ridden just off the pace but not right up there like GB and while the opposition was far from great
and Kateson did absolutely nothing to frank the form he bear her so easily and by that far in the style of a really good horse
the fail to frank the form seems meaningless. When he changed gear it was smooth as silk and I don't think he knew he had a race
This lookks much tougher but he might just win again
Don't know what TV has in mind for him as I think he looks a mile better on soft/heavy Cheltenham could be off the radar
I give him 8/10 more if the rains come.
Tip Top Cat was completing a hatrick in what on paper seemed to be a better race but I have my doubts if in reality it was.
Nothing was travelling in that race from at least a mile from home. He was held up which is also a big minus here with
2 very strong up there horses to try and pass if ridden the same way again I think he's up against it.
6.5/10 for me.
3*** win bet Bells of Peterboro 11/4 plus Gazette Bourgeoise 2 places 3*** bet 6/4 so if either wins I come out on top.
If Tip Top Cat wins don't worry I will blame DO:lol:
