Toolatetodelegate finished fourth last time out, much to the frustration of anyone who backed her each-way as she was finishing well but just missed out on the places, but that was still a step back in the right direction and it looks like Brian Barr’s mare’s turn is near. She is now 5lb lower than when a desperately unlucky fifth of nine over the 5f trip at Kempton, backed into 2/1 from 4/1 that day it’s clear connections think she has a win in her at this level and this looks a weak contest, so I’m willing to take a small chance on her again with cheek pieces going back on. She has never won over 6f but the way she finished off her race last time suggests it should be well within her capabilities.
Nice write up, but not quite right, has won over 6f twice at Bath, so don't see the distance being a problem. I think Monarch Maid might be able to surprise.
My main view is "why would you back ANYTHING in this dire race?". But having broke all my rules and backing a Gary Moore horse i thought id try and get my head round a class 6 (whatever that is...i thought it may be for poodles!). I saw one of Eves in there and at least It won lto. I rang my very good friend who has had loads of horses with Eve over the years and asked "is it any good?"...he said "whats its name" i said "New Rich"...."Useless" was the reply! I quizzed further...he just kept saying it was useless. So based on the fact its a poodle race and its useless ive had a bet at 9/2. He said the lass riding is good and worth her claim so in ive gone !
Yes a very poor race, not only the horses don’t know how to win, even most of the trainers represented in the race have been struggling to get winners recently, John Bridger is one of the exceptions and he had a similar winner couple of days ago so I have gone with his runner Deer Song (11/1), it has 1 win from 53 so needless to say I am betting very small stakes but at least it has 4 placings from 11 runs over this c&d compared to 4 placings from 42 runs elsewhere.
A defo no bet race. If I was really forced to have a bet and by that I mean someone would have to be holding a gun to my head! My suggestion would be to back Brother in arms in the place market. Hope whoever is betting in the race picks up! Good luck.
