Well today (Monday) the new “7 hits for flat and 8 hits for jumps with no more than 5 in the final furlong” rule. I shall say no more since the press will be full of it and I had my say a few days ago on this blog! ......except listen out for the clunking as the jockeys weigh in (that's the abacus up the sleeve making the noise)
Fallon is in action at Salisbury today and has a 43% strike rate here – pretty damn good by anyone’s reckoning – if this works out then his 7 rides should produce 3 wins and he really needs every one if he’s still to be in with a chance of the jockeys title. His record on 2yo and 3yo here is marginally even better so the maidens are worth a look .....although on the flip side the trainers’ records for 2yo races all stand at a most un-hot and ice cold 0%!
Todays selections are:
Yarmouth
15:15 Soap Wars (12) 2nd
16:20 Bogey Hole (5.2) UP
Salisbury
16:30 Mabait (5.4) UP
17:00 Mini’s Destination (17) UP
17:30 Billy Buttons (5.8) UP
Windsor
16:40 Grumeti (4.2) NR (although
the trainers recent record tempers enthusiasm a bit!)
Not a good day with -5 loss
Australia
Bogey Hole - a man-made swimming pool dug from the ocean rocks by convicts in 1820 in Newcastle, New South Wales
In case I forget to mention Dr Finley at Newcastle (17:00) tomorrow 11 October then I’ll mention it now!!
