Probably not but I am highlighting the race As there are big prices in a strangely staked race Chelmsford 6.10 CURBYOURENTHUSIASM 5/2 Each Way 1/4 The Odds 1,2 I love his chance on paper He has never let me down the times I opposed him I hope he won't now I want to bet him Very few similar races So unsafe to take a statistical approach But I think he should be good enough Final Decision CURBYOURENTHUSIASM But as a win bet Daily Negatives No Negative Today Results of Negatives 27 correct bets from 38 P r o f i l e s & P r e v i e w s K e l s o 12.35 11/8 Tree Of Liberty, 6/4 Another Bill, 7/1 Grays Choice 10/1 Christmas In Usa, 14/1 Grey Storm, 33/1 Lansdowne Road 33/1 Tiger Mountain, 66/1 Robins Legend, 100/1 Crookofdevon 100/1 Elusive Classic. Novice Hurdle over 2m 6f I am quite surprised by my angles here ANOTHER BILL is a 6yo He has won a Novice Hurdle recently Without knowing how similar horses got on I expected him to have a far better profile Than TREE OF LIBERTY a 4 year old I looked at TREE OF LIBERTY's profile 4 year old with 1 Bumper run Beaten in that race but not by more than 12 lengths Running within 5 weeks Starting under 20/1 I was expecting to find a weak record Surprisingly I found a 6-15 record !! TREE OF LIBERTY is a surprise positive He is for sale at the moment which I don't like And I find it hard to commit to him ANOTHER BILL has a smart 4-8 profile I have to go with him with winning hurdling form He now has a bigger danger than I expected But I am staying with winning hurdling form here Selection ANOTHER BILL 11/10 Win Bet A i n t r e e 1.30 5/4 Wotzizname, 15/8 Definite Outcome 5/2 Arpege D´alene. This is a 3m 1f Novice Chase Only 3 runners all very talented Nothing I say here can sort this race One bad jump can throw it all up in the air I am going to take on WOTZIZNAME Whilst No Chasing experience is not a problem He is very lightly raced There are some holes in his hurdles form I just feel safer with DEFINITE OUTCOME DEFINITE OUTCOME has 1 Chase run Racing Post Rating of 140 Thats pretty reassuring When you consider the favourite hasn't jumped a fence yet He is a big strong type I ran DEFINITE OUTCOME's profile I found a W W CO F W record One horse Fell at the first years ago Another was carried out without any blame The other 3 like him all won It is the best profile in the race ARPEGE D´ALENE finished last in that race But he was favourite so should be respected Selection DEFINITE OUTCOME 7/4 Win Bet D o n c a s t e r 1.50 5/1 Albernathy, 9/1 George Bowen, 10/1 Withernsea 11/1 Boy In The Bar, 11/1 God Willing, 11/1 Oh This Is Us 12/1 Bertiewhittle, 12/1 Dinkum Diamond, 12/1 London Protocol 12/1 Shady Mccoy, 12/1 That Is The Spirit, 14/1 Mount Tahan 14/1 Right Touch, 16/1 Al Khan, 20/1 Cricklewood Green 20/1 Flaming Spear, 20/1 Jack´s Revenge, 25/1 Highly Sprung Class 2 handicap over 7f I have a traditional shortlist in this race Year after year the winners seems to be on there This year my angles produced this shortlist OH THIS IS US - THAT IS THE SPIRIT - MOUNT TAHAN GOD WILLING - SHADY MCCOY - GEORGE BOWEN There are 47 of these races in October and November Horses aged 7 or more are just 1-111 Horses aged 8 or more are 0-36 So I am taking out the following older horses DINKUM DIAMOND - AL KHAN BERTIEWHITTLE - JACK´S REVENGE If we look at horses from 6f or shorter Those absent more than 4 weeks from 6f were 0-30 FLAMING SPEAR fails this statistic BOY IN THE BAR is 5 and up in distance Without a recent race I look elsewhere I have looked at all the winners aged 3 HIGHLY SPRUNG is far more exposed than all of them If I look at 3 year olds absent over a Month I find a 0-48 record in similar races LONDON PROTOCOL fails this and is rejected CRICKLEWOOD GREEN is biting too much off THAT IS THE SPIRIT was hammered last time Doesn't get the benefit of the doubt Horses from 8f races Absent more than 7 days When aged 5 or more are just 1-70 DINKUM DIAMOND also fails this statistic GOD WILLING also fails it RIGHT TOUCH will need a career best Best win off 95 and rated 100 today Too many on the shortlist to slip him on there Shortlist OH THIS IS US - Tough rating of 101 for a 3yo ALBERNATHY - Scrapes in on the shortlist GEORGE BOWEN - Profile fine WITHERNSEA - Profile fine MOUNT TAHAN has enough to shortlist SHADY MCCOY - Like his profile down in trip Two winners aged 6 won with similar profiles May not have stayed a mile on last two runs Selection £3 Each Way SHADY MCCOY 14/1 £1 Win Bet GEORGE BOWEN 8/1 £1 Win Bet WITHERNSEA 12/1 £1 Win Bet ALBERNATHY 8/1 £1 Win Bet MOUNT TAHAN 16/1 A i n t r e e 2.05 4/1 Ennistown, 5/1 Young Dillon, 11/2 Shutthefrontdoor 11/2 Unanimite, 6/1 Caid Du Berlais, 13/2 Kruzhlinin 8/1 Holywell, 12/1 Goodbye Dancer, 16/1 The Tourard Man. This is a Class 2 handicap hurdle over 3m There are 29 similar races at this time of year If you look at Seasonal debutants Aged 8 or more Who have 11st or more weight You find a miserable 1-74 record The only winner was in a very small field HOLYWELL fails this profile SHUTTHEFRONTDOOR fails this profile Both from the same stable Both likely to have other plans in the spring Horses Aged 5 Have a 1-29 record in this race The only winner (Jorobaden 2005) won the week before Not a good race for 5 year olds Understandable as this is 3 miles and a Class 2 race This interested me October November December 3m Handicap Hurdles Class 3 or higher There are 191 of these races Horses aged 5 did win some of these races But the only ones that did Had 12 or fewer hurdle runs Horses aged 5 with 13 + hurdle races were 0-13 This tells me they are too exposed They don't have much if any improvement left Yet they meet older and stronger horses Either way no 5yo has won with 13 + Hurdle runs And that's over a 3 month period in 3 Classes GOODBYE DANCER is 5 and has this problem UNANIMITE is 5 and has this problem He only just fails that stat and is harder to rule out But he beat nothing last time He is not certain to stay this far in this class THE TOURARD MAN has 2 recent poor runs Difficult to see a tempting case for him CAID DU BERLAIS is interesting Won the 2014 Paddy Power Gold Cup Had a year off through injury CAID DU BERLAIS has raced once this season That was over 2m 3f I can not make him a negative But his profile is not strong either And you have to wonder if he may need another run With several future targets over fences looming Shortlist ENNISTOWN - Last seem at Newmarket That was on the flat in the Cesarewitch That complicates his profile Makes him very hard to read More positives than negatives though YOUNG DILLON - Came out like 1 winner I would want him on my side Especially with a decent recent race KRUZHLININ is interesting This is a horse that wants small fields He has been Chasing for a while Mainly in big fields recently Just has not been suited to those races Rated 146 over fences Now running off 138 over hurdles in a small field His profile is unsafe We can't know how good he is now over hurdles No idea how fit he is either But he could easily win if retaining his ability Selection £4 Each Way KRUZHLININ 8/1 £2 Win Bet ENNISTOWN 4/1 £2 Win Bet YOUNG DILLON 6/1 W i n c a n t o n 2.10 11/10 Sceau Royal, 3/1 North Hill Harvey, 7/2 Zubayr 14/1 Rayvin Black 16/1 Aristo Du Plessis 40/1 Peckhamecho. Graded Handicap Hurdle over 2m 6 Runners 3 horses dominate the market Sceau Royal is a 4yo Zubayr is a 4yo North Hill Harvey is a 5yo Go back to Cheltenham last March SCEAU ROYAL was 12th in the Triumph Hurdle ZUBAYR was 13th in the Triumph Hurdle They were and still are 4 year olds They had Racing Post Ratings of 126 and 130 in that race NORTH HILL HARVEY is older He ran 9th in the Supreme Novice Hurdle Far stronger race and a Racing Post Rating of 141 I am drawn more to NORTH HILL HARVEY Older horses could just be more suitable The issues with 4 year olds in this race is complicated They won this race in 2001 2002 2003 with top class 4yo's Since 2004 None have managed to win Actually the 4 year old issue is not that complicated You have to divide horses aged 4 into 2 categories Those with under 7 hurdle runs Those with 7 or more hurdle runs Statistics show that the 4 year olds you want Are the Lightly raced 4 year olds Not the ones with 7 or more hurdle races Handicap Hurdles Listed and Graded Class Any and every distance Look at 4 year olds Who have 7 or more previous hurdle runs In these races in July they are 0-5 In these races in August they are 0-0 In these races in September they are 0-4 In these races in October they are 0-11 In these races in November they are 0-41 In these races in December they are 6-43 This tells us one thing 4 year olds with 7 or more hurdle runs Do not win these races until December Those trying between July and November were 0-61 SCEAU ROYAL has this problem He is a 4yo with 10 Hurdle runs If this statistic works out again Then SCEAU ROYAL is in trouble with this profile These angles suggest ZUBAYR is the better 4yo But they have struggled in this race And NORTH HILL HARVEY looks the better age The potential flaw in this analysis Is SCEAU ROYAL's last run Very impressive win Career best Racing Post Rating So maybe that needs to be given more importance But my angles prefer the 5 year old And I am going each way despite 7 runners NORTH HILL HARVEY gets weight from a 4yo He is reported as an easy horse to get fit Selection NORTH HILL HARVEY 11/4 Each Way 1/4 the Odds 1,2 places D o n c a s t e r 2.25 11/8 Growl, 5/1 Absolutely So, 11/1 Jack Dexter, 12/1 Dawaa 12/1 Kimberella, 14/1 Aeolus, 14/1 Lady Macapa 16/1 Dutch Destiny, 33/1 Burnt Sugar. The Wentworth Stakes is a 6f Listed race There are 15 renewals of this race Horses from 7f or longer last time were 2-53 Those aged under 6 were 0-36 doing this DAWAA fails this 0-36 record Those from 7f races in Class 2 or lower were 0-37 DAWAA fails this as well KIMBERELLA and ABSOLUTELY SO do as well I am against DUTCH DESTINY Think she is too inexperienced LADY MACAPA is a 3yo filly None have won this race before She is coming up two Grades in Class as well JACK DEXTER won this last year on Heavy Don't see lightning striking twice on fast ground BURNT SUGAR - Numbers not good enough He comes from the worst trial race too Shortlist AEOLUS has some promise One of the few with some 6f form on Fast Much as they say he is better on soft GROWL - 2nd in a Group 1 last time That was a Career best run by miles His best previous Racing Post Rating was 106 At Ascot last time he recorded a massive 118 That would win every past renewal if repeated It is miles clear than any other horse in the race If GROWL repeats that run he will win But you have to consider it may have been a fluke He was a 50/1 chance Some of his opponents failed to deliver It was miles better than anything he has ever done before That does make me a bit sceptical I think GROWL should be a saver I think we should buy him out of the race I can not trust that last performance I am taking a chance on a big priced bet The reason is faster ground Very Few of these Have raced over 6f on faster ground before At least not in the last 13 months Racing Post Ratings 6f races Good to Firm or faster 111 Kimberella 106 Growl 104 Aeolus KIMBERELLA has the best fast ground 6f number GROWL the second best So I will hope this is the best approach Selection £6 Win Bet KIMBERELLA 10/1 £4 Saver Bet GROWL 11/8 W i n c a n t o n 3.20 3/1 Southfield Theatre, 4/1 Present Man, 5/1 The Young Master 8/1 Fingerontheswitch, 9/1 Carole´s Destrier, 10/1 Gentleman Jon 12/1 Cocktails At Dawn, 14/1 Ziga Boy, 16/1 Roc D´apsis 16/1 Set List, 25/1 Bob Tucker. The Badger Ales Trophy is a 3m 1f Handicap Chase I am going to oppose 8yo seasonal debutants Based on some interesting early season angles October November December Handicap Chases 2m 5f or more Listed and Graded races There are 135 of these races since 2002 If you look at 8yo seasonal debutants They have a 4-119 record since 2002 The 4 winners that did it were years ago They mostly had very light weights as well Look at 8yo seasonal debutants since 2007 In all similar races they have a 0-69 record Look at 8yo seasonal debutants with 10st 6lbs + In all similar races there was a 1-84 record I hope this is a significant angle These are prestigious races in these 3 months Full of High class prospects Cheltenham and Aintree Festival players No real surprise 8yo debutants have struggled The younger horses aged 7 have more improvement And the 8 year olds that bump into them Probably have not fulfilled their promise when 7 year olds As if they had then they would not be in Handicaps No 8yo debutant has won the Hennessy in decades None have won the Paddy Power Gold Cup None have won this race in 10 years None the Becher Chase or any of these autumn races So I am going to oppose them in this race Horses aged 8 hardly score well in this race anyway They are only 1-49 in the last 15 renewals 8yo Debutants 0-69 since 2007 8yo Debutants 1-84 with 10st 6lbs + The following 8yo debutants are rejected COCKTAILS AT DAWN CAROLE´S DESTRIER SOUTHFIELD THEATRE These 3 horses are rated 147 148 150 15 past renewals of this race None were won by a horse rated higher than 145 So I feel they have a tough enough task anyway THE YOUNG MASTER is rated 150 We know no past winner won rated more than 145 THE YOUNG MASTER is a 7yo seasonal debutant Seasonal debutants aged 7 are fine But these all had 9 or fewer previous Chase starts THE YOUNG MASTER has now had 10 runs Not a big issue but not a match to a winner And the rating of 150 hurts his profile as well ZIGA BOY is a 7yo seasonal debutant 18 Chase runs is too much for me though He would be the most exposed 7yo debutant This looks a prep race for something else BOB TUCKER looks unsafe Hard to see him winning on recent form PRESENT MAN is a 6 year old Horses aged 6 do score well But I do have some problems with him PRESENT MAN comes from a 2m 4f race Every other horse comes from 3m or more So he is the only horse going up in distance If you look at past renewals Horses that came from 2m 6f or shorter were 0-32 PRESENT MAN fails that 0-32 record This race has never rewarded trip jumpers And 14 of the 15 winners had more Chase runs I can't bet PRESENT MAN with this profile ROC D´APSIS was hammered on his seasonal debut I needed more from him His last 3 runs worry me all over 3m As he did not prove he can stay That worries me as his sire has no 3m + winners The only sire in the race yet to achieve that Shortlist GENTLEMAN JON won recently 8 year olds are 1-49 in this race Not been a good race so far for his age group He does come here fit and in form though It may only have been a 4 horse race he won But it was a career best Racing Post Rating He has a 3-7 record on this track So I would not rule him out He has a bit to prove on breeding stats though If you look at his sire Beat All His Hurdle and Chase runners Those that raced in Listed or Graded races are 0-19 His Sire has yet to get a National Hunt winner in this class If you just look at the sires Chasers They are 0-22 in Class 2 of higher GENTLEMAN JON will need a career best And to set a higher standard than any by his sire have done FINGERONTHESWITCH is a 6 year old Horses aged 6 are fine in these races The problem is none had under 4 Chase runs FINGERONTHESWITCH only has 3 runs And he fell in one of those I can find a 6yo with 4 Chase starts Who won the Welsh Grand National I can find a Hennessy winner (Strong Flow) Who was 6 and had 4 Chase starts None though had only 3 which concerns me Then again he has had Point to Point runs He does look progressive Will like the ground And if you ignore his Cheltenham form He looks even more progressive and consistent My main worry is inexperience and a last time Fall SET LIST is a lightly raced Chaser Plenty of positives in his profile Slight concern he lacks a bit of backclass He has never raced beyond a Class 3 race yet But he comes here after a career best run His last time out Racing Post Rating was his best I think he is good value at 16/1 + Selection £2 Each Way SET LIST 20/1 £5 Win Bet FINGERONTHESWITCH 7/1 £1 Win Bet GENTLEMAN JON 12/1 D o n c a s t e r 3.35 6/1 Cape Cova, 7/1 Wrangler, 12/1 Erik The Red 12/1 Prize Money, 12/1 Soldier In Action, 14/1 Litigant, 14/1 Qassem, 14/1 Tawdeea, 16/1 Montaly 20/1 Buonarroti, 20/1 Dashing Star 20/1 William Hunter, 25/1 Fattsota, 25/1 Green Light, 25/1 Mirsaale 25/1 Trendsetter, 33/1 Mistiroc, 33/1 Mukhayyam 33/1 Sir Chauvelin. I sent detailed analysis for this yesterday No point in sending it again I got to the shortlist stage Now the task is to try and pick the winner Shortlist MONTALY NOT SO SLEEPY PRIZE MONEY CAPE COVA TAWDEEA NOT SO SLEEPY is a non runner MONTALY rejected on the ground I am drafting in WILLIAM HUNTER He was a Positive I didn't shortlist yesterday I think he does have a chance of taking this Selection £5 Win Bet WILLIAM HUNTER 16/1 £2 Win Bet CAPE COVA 5/1 £2 Win Bet PRIZE MONEY 12/1 £1 Win Bet TAWDEEA 20/1 C h e l m s f o r d 6.10 9/4 Winning Story, 100/30 Haines 9/2 Curbyourenthusiasm, 5/1 Watersmeet 11/2 Great Hall, 25/1 Rideonastar. This is a 1m 6f Handicap Class 2 race Very few similar races at this time of year I will start with some numbers Racing Post Ratings 1m 6f races 114 Curbyourenthusiasm 107 Curbyourenthusiasm 104 Great Hall 97 Great Hall 95 Great Hall CURBYOURENTHUSIASM stands out He has a big edge on the above numbers I am quite drawn to him over this distance Having been opposing him for a few runs His Sire is Mastercraftsman This sire has not yet had a 2m winner in Class 2 or higher His last 3 runs have been 2m or more in Group 2 races Not Bred to stay in any of those races I opposed him in all of them Before that he won a Class 2 Handicap And was second in a Yorkshire Cup CURBYOURENTHUSIASM is the class horse He is now back over his ideal range Quite how his profile works I don't know Not enough similar races to understand it To know if the 57 day break is helpful or not Or how the profiles of other horses work That is the price we are going to have to pay WINNING STORY only has 2 career runs I looked at all similar races all year round Run over 1m 3f or more Very few winners had just 2 runs None that did had an absence as well He may win but he has to be unsafe I see others as unsafe as well GREAT HALL comes from 10f to 14f Thats a 4f jump in trip only 7 days since his last run I think he is beatable RIDEONASTAR is out of form Hard to see him having the class anyway WATERSMEET has a chance He comes from 10f and has limited 14f form The way I look at his profile Is he has the talent to be a saver But we just don't know how he will run Has he had enough for the year He's been on the go since February Hammered last time at 50/1 But he did win before that A saver could be sensible HAINES drops down half a Mile I don't have a big problem with his profile I am conscious that in 25 career starts His career best Racing Post Rating was 96 Several others have far bigger numbers But he does get weight which will compensate I like CURBYOURENTHUSIASM I see him as the class horse He is only allowed to run in this race As his rating has come down from 111 to 109 to 107 to 105 Courtesy of defeats in races he was not bred to stay I hope that his class will show over his best distance Selection CURBYOURENTHUSIASM 11/4 Each Way 1/4 The Odds 1,2 ************************************************** ************************************************** To join our private service now under our No Quibble Refund Guarantee click here ..
