Racing - Saturday 10th Feb

Newbury 1:35
Denman 4/6
Mr Pointment 7/2
Standin Obligation 7/1

I'm enough of a fool to oppose Mr Pointment here. Probably at least as good as Don't Push It who gave Denman a real race.

Mr Pointment 4pts win at 9/2



Newbury 2:05
Isle De Maurice 6/1
Beare Necessities 6/1
Minella Tipperary 7/1
Maharbal 9/1
Double Dizzy 9/1
Liberthine 20/1
Itsmyboy 20/1
Junkanoo 20/1
Special rate 20/1

One of my top two is very weak, the other very strong. I'll probably back them both late on, but it's a dodgy looking race.


Newbury 3:15
Tarlac 10/1
Acambo 11/1
Papini 11/1
Moores Law 11/1
New Field 11/1
Quatre Heures 11/1
Pedrobob 11/1
Private Be 16/1
Overstrand 25/1
My Immortal 25/1
Rio De Janeiro 25/1
Mister Hight 33/1
Caracciola 33/1
Orcadian 33/1

My ante post portfolio is made up of Tarlac, Pedrobob, Private Be and Rio De Janeiro, and I can't find much else to add this morning. Maybe play around with exactas etc closer to the off.


Newbury 3:50
Ashley Brook 3/1
Well Chief 3/1
Voy Per Ustedes 4/1
Foreman 4/1
Sporazene 16/1

Tricky race this. The ket to me is the weight Ashley and Chief are receiving. Granted one may bounce and the other may be looked after and need the race, but they are the better horses. I think Foreman should be priced the same as VPU, and may add him in late, but for now I'll go with the best horse.

Well Chief 5pts win at 4/1
