Is £2 still the minimum bet, or is it now the maximum? :roll:

Absolutele madness at Sandown tomorrow. 2.10 Sandown, Baristan The Bold is running in a novice event.

He is rated 92 against mostly unraced maidens.

The face 5/2 available is absolute insanity. 4/6 should be the price possible it should be shorter.

The best horses of modern times have barely even managed a rating of 80 on their debut let alone 92.

Assuming Baristan The Bold hits his level and sees out the extra furlong... where I think he could be better there is the smallest chance of being beat.

I’ve tipped a fair few of theses over the years and the winter AW has a handful of theses types of races each year and occasions some during the summer, but I haven’t seen one since Feb/March.

It’s all about the trainer/jockey connections thing again if I was Tom Dascombe I think I’d be offended as long as I didn’t want a bet.
Gosden, Godolphin and big jockey names are trying to create an illusion in that market. Ignore it, no chance any horse will get writhin 2 lengths.

If your a market maker... you might want to re check what your offering.

If this horse was Trained by Gosden... it be 4/9
If it was trained by Godolphin it be 8/11
If it was ridden by Ryan Moore butwith same trainer it be 6/4
If it was ridden By DeSousa but with same trainer it be 15/8.

Does the above really make that difference?

Add some more in for arguments sake.

Sandown is a stiff and tough track to crack. Not a track that favours inexperienced horses.
Additionally Baristan won at the course nearly 3 weeks ago.
Had a little look to see what professionals are saying and it seems the penalty is an issue. He won a pretty strong handicap at the track carrying top weight.
The more I look at it the more I could price it 1/3 (1.33).

What could get him beat? He doesn’t stay the trip or a ridiculously strong pace.

For you cautious players. Assuming he goes off at a fair price a D.O.B is a great wager. He should jump out of the gate and trade pretty low pretty quickly, if all fails I expect a d.o.b would of happened before 3f out.

Looking forward to getting stuck back into some domestic racing, although I'm not expecting anything spectacular from the markets today!

Funny how a small profit following a string of losses can restore your confidence - or perhaps it's just my mindset. :lol:

Accidently traded twice what I intended on the 14:20 Yarmouth ..... and made twice the profit!

Doesn't that make a change? :D

They were struggling to get the tongue tie on this horse and it's price reacted as a result.
