150 Donny Hillbilly Boy 1pt ew 25/1 (nothing to do with this thread but I'll be backing Boy in the Bar at small stakes at 12/1)
435 Chelmsford 5pt ew 11/2
540 Chelmsford outsider of the field Squire 2pt ew 12/1. The price of Starboard in this one is drifting (currently 8/1) but if my memory serves me right, there was a lot of money for it when entered in a race recently before being pulled out. No, I think it may have been the other night when the racing was abandoned after the nasty incident that ended up with two jocks injured. Yeah, I'm sure that's right. I'm going to risk an ew bet.
No reason whatsoever for anyone to be backing the serial disappointment that is Kalk Bay tomorrow in the 400 Newcastle but, it's in the tracker so 1pt ew 20/1
Thanks mate, I was down around £100 today but just won it all back on KALK
Interesting that his AW form now reads 161, with the 6th placing a little unlucky (Chelmsford 7f) as he found trouble when starting his run, and the sharp 7f would have been against him.
The straight galloping 7f at Newcastle looked ideal for him, he usually holds his form for a few races so he could well go in again if brought back here, should only go up a few pounds for this.
Which is what we discussed and said he needed if you remember Ran at York last month when I was there in what looked to be pretty ideal circumstances (I admit I didn't have time to look at he going and just backed him on the strength of the straight track) I'd pretty much given up hope on him getting his had in front again for this year at least.
