Sunday's Selections & Updates - 08 January

Not at all bad a day yesterday for the blog selections with a nice profit despite the refusal of Master Of The Hall in the 15:10 at Sandown.  My DD (dear daughter) has a remedy for naughty Irish horseys who refuse to jump.......place a pint of Guinness the other side of each fence (not stereotyping an entire nation there at all!) 


15:30 Hereford
The racing today is from Hereford, Naas and Southwell AW.  My strike rate for Hereford (cow country) is pretty good at over 40% but I boasted this on here last time and failed dismally....which means that if the stats are to be believed then each and every one of my top rows should win to pull the figures back in line.....I'll list my 'considered' selections along with the top row for the card (and a reason if they aren't one and the same) and we can see how it pans out! For the reckoning up, I'll assume 1pt for each pick on the Hereford selections.


At 14:10, I can see where the Hereford picks are heading.....top line all the way!


Impressive five out of seven for the Hereford top line selections on the right.  
Profits of +12.75 today (67%)

Notes:
1/            Castle Conflict looks better suited to further  Edlomond now a NR so if looking for an ew alternative to Castle Conflict then Wheres Wal or Tenspinhits is worth a look.
2/            Perhaps I’m being contrary opposing Johnny Owen despite his obvious claims – concern is for the quick turnaround and the softer going.
5/            Goddam awful race which I wouldn’t normally contemplate looking at but for going through the card!  The Tatkin in first time blinkers is very appealing (and money for him) but although he’s raced on heavy, I think he’d prefer less juice.
6/            Niceonefrankie was initially Top Line but I checked and recalculated and this was a mistake (he has no sort of form on soft going either)!
7/            Bumpers aren’t usually my thing but since I’m going through the card ……!






Hereford, jumping cow
