<p>Another good day yesterday as our main bet POLLYS MARK won for full Members  at 5/2.<br />
It looked like he had been caught on the line by a fast finisher but we got the verdict<br />
and I&#8217;ll happily take that as we have had big priced horses beaten this year at 1.01 and similar prices in running.<br />
Whilst nobody believes these things even out over a season its nice to get one that did look like getting away from us.<br />
Either a great ride or one nice piece of luck but either way another valuable winner.<br />

* I would not rule him out at a big price<br />
* LIGHT FROM MARS is an exposed 5yo<br />

* Horses like that running within 4 weeks were 4-22<br />

* The 2002 winner even came from the same Handicap as him</p>
<p>SELECTION</p>
<p>GALLAGHER  40/1<br />
IMPERIAL GUEST 25/1<br />
COLEPEPER 33/1<br />
LIGHT FROM MARS 40/1</p>
<p>My shortlist has thrown up 4 rank outsiders.<br />
Don&#8217;t know if thats a ridiculous fluke or what&#8217;s happened there !!<br />
If there is one selection then GALLAGHER  at 40/1 interests me as the best option<br />
but at these prices I&#8217;d be an idiot not to have some small bets on all 4.<br />
I have decided on a pretty low stake that I&#8217;m prepared to lose in a race as vile<br />
as this and I&#8217;ve had small bets on all 4 of these runners on <a href='http://www.free-bet.co.uk/clickthru.asp?id=66' title='Betfair' target="_blank">Betfair</a> at prices that<br />
are far bigger than they should be.<br />
I doubt I will get the winner but the angles steer me this way and at these prices its not too<br />
hard to trust them and have 4 small value bets at massive prices.</p>
<p><a href='http://www.free-bet.co.uk/clickthru.asp?id=66' title='Betfair' target="_blank">Betfair</a> is probably your best bet if betting long odds horses on the nose.</p>
<p>The link below gives best bookie odds however.</p>

<p>I have a full Account Bet for full members today but due to respect for them</p>
<p>I can&#8217;t put it up here.</p>
<p>What I do have for you however on the free betting blog is some analysis for another race today.</p>
<p>This is just a small snippet from the full member message.</p>
<p>SANDOWN 2.45</p>
<p>Chemring Group Handicap Chase<br />
(for The Alanbrooke Challenge Cup)<br />
(CLASS 3) (5yo+ 0-135) 3m110y</p>
<p>5/2 Shillingstone, 4/1 Any Currency, 6/1 Ma Yahab,<br />
8/1 Double Eagle, 9/1 Isn´t That Lucky, 12/1 Bowleaze,<br />
14/1 Maktu ,14/1 Mount Sandel, 20/1 Wind Instrument<br />
50/1 Offaly.</p>
<p>* This is a 3m Handicap Chase for 0-135 rated horses<br />
* Sandown has had 27 similar races at this time of year<br />
* There are 233 similar races elsewhere</p>
<p>This has been a lightweights race. The 27 Sandown races<br />
show horses with 11st 10lbs or more having a 1-47 record.<br />
SHILLINGSTONE doesnt appeal to me off topweight. He<br />
looks vulnerable mixing a high weight with an absence as<br />
a very lightly raced horse. You wont find a winner in 233<br />
races anywhere that had a 7 week absence and a weight<br />
or more than 11st 6lbs when as lightly raced as He is so<br />
I am opposing SHILLINGSTONE. I think OFFALY looks<br />
outclassed. MOUNT SANDEL has too much to do with<br />
just 1 run this year and a large weight. I cant see a horse<br />
like that winning. WIND INSTRUMENT has 2 poor runs<br />
on his 2 runs this season and looks out of form. I think it<br />
is likely BOWLEAZE is being aimed at the Kim Muir next<br />
month. Besides that look at the 233 similar handicaps for<br />
exposed horses that had not run in 10 weeks and there is<br />
a 0-66 record there suggesting BOWLEAZE wont be fit.<br />
ISN´T THAT LUCKY has a poor profile. He has to come<br />
from 2m 4f with just two runs this year and no horse did<br />
that in 233 races and he has a nasty absence as well. I<br />
dont see MA YAHAB as the best option not exposed<br />
and with just one run this season.</p>
<p>SHORTLIST</p>
<p>MAKTU<br />
DOUBLE EAGLE<br />
ANY CURRENCY</p>
<p>OR JAUNE has a strong profile. He is very similar to the<br />
1992 winner and last years winner and he looks very well<br />
treated at the moment. I like MAKTU who comes from a<br />
Novice Handicap Chase. He is light on experience with<br />
4 chase runs but his profile is interesting. Another lighter raced horse is DOUBLE EAGLE but he is unexposed and<br />
comes out well statistically. ANY CURRENCY probably<br />
has the strongest profile with the worry from his profile<br />
the fact his trainer states he is only 90% ready and this<br />
is a prep race for Cheltenham.</p>
<p>SELECTION</p>
<p>MAKTU 7/1</p>
<p>ANY CURRENCY (Saver 7/2)</p>

<p>* This is an Amateur Riders Handicap Chase<br />
* There has been 15 renewals since 1993<br />
* There has been 65 handicap chases at this meeting<br />
* Thats 65 handicap chases at every distance<br />
* ARTEEA is out aged 10 absent 383 days<br />
* Thats too much to do with 11st 12lbs<br />
* Look at the 65 handicap chases at the festival<br />
* Only 3 winners had 11st 8lbs or more in a 3-125 record<br />
* Of those all 56 horses that came from Graded races lost<br />
* ARTEEA fails that and is rejected<br />
* CHARACTER BUILDING also fails that<br />
* No handicap chase at the festival went to his type<br />
* A Horse with 11st 8lbs unplaced last time out<br />
* HIGH CHIMES also fails that and has 11st 12lbs<br />
* In 65 Handicaps no horse had 11st 8lbs or more like him<br />
* None were as inexperience or lost by as far as him last time<br />
* ICE TEA fails the same statistics<br />
* He has 11st 11lbs and didnt place last time out<br />
* With his absence he looks opposable<br />
* SHERWOODS FOLLY technically fails that as well<br />
* He has 11st 8lbs and Pulled up last time<br />
* No Cheltenham Festival Handicap Chase went that way<br />
* None went to a horse unplaced last time with that weight<br />
* In 65 handicaps I looked at 7 year olds<br />
* None won carrying 11st or more (0-40)<br />
* SHERWOODS FOLLY is trying to become the first<br />
* BUTLER´S CABIN also fails the same statistic<br />
* There must be a chance he is being targeted at the National<br />
* His weight and Absence also looks a problem<br />
* He ought to need the run today and isnt for me<br />
* I am oppisng exposed horses with 1 run this season<br />
* None of the 65 Festival Handicaps went that way<br />
* No horse won with 1 run that year when exposed<br />
* None managed it with a months absence either<br />
* WITHOUT A DOUBT fails that and is rejected<br />
* LE DUC is out as exposed and having 1 run this year<br />
* He comes from a Hunter Chase as well<br />
* No Handicap at this festival went to a Hunter Chase runner<br />
* WARPATH looks impossible to fancy<br />
* OPENIDE looks very hard to fancy at the moment<br />
* Horses aged 11 or more have a 0-55 record in this race<br />
* BROOKLYN BREEZE fails that and is rejected<br />
* He comes from a Hunter Chase and no horse did that<br />
* No Hunter Chaser has won a Festival Handicap before<br />
* ALEXANDERTHEGREAT is also out aged 11<br />
* In 65 handicap chases over any trip at this festival<br />
* Only 7 horses won aged 11 or more<br />
* None of these defied a months break as he does<br />
* LE TOSCAN comes from a Graduation Chase<br />
* Horses not from handicaps were 0-42 in this race<br />
* LE TOSCAN also has a 118 day break<br />
* I looked at all 65 handicap chases at the festival<br />
* No horse had 7 weeks off without coming from a handicap<br />
* SHOULDHAVEHADTHAT comes from a Novice Handicap<br />
* Horses that came from Novice races in this race were 0-42<br />
* I looked at Novice Handicap Chasers in 65 Cheltenham races<br />
* In the 65 races No horse won coming from a Novice Handicap<br />
* All 19 lost and none managed a 1-2-3 placing in them<br />
* SHOULDHAVEHADTHAT also has a 73 day absence<br />
* I looked at English horses absent 7 weeks or more<br />
* In every handicap chase run at this festival these types were poor<br />
* No horse aged 7 or less managed it (0-43) as he tries to<br />
* Those that won last time out as he did were 0-41<br />
* No horse managed it from any kind of Novice race<br />
* The only 7yo winners of this race ran within a month<br />
* In 65 handicaps I looked at 7 year olds<br />
* None won carrying 11st or more (0-40)<br />
* SHOULDHAVEHADTHAT fails that as well<br />
* SHOULDHAVEHADTHAT has a lot to prove for me<br />
* ALRIGHT NOW M´LAD has 11st 7lbs and an 8 week break<br />
* In 65 English handicaps horses absent 7 weeks struggled<br />
* Those like him with 11st or more were 2-88<br />
* He doesnt look to be in good enough for for this<br />
* BOWLEAZE has a similar problem<br />
* He has a 11st 3lbs and a 96 day break<br />
* OODACHEE has a very hard task<br />
* He is absent 166 days yet a 10 year old and exposed<br />
* He also has 11st 5lbs and steps up from 2m 4f<br />
* AGGIE´S LAD was beaten 80 lengths in a Beginners Chase<br />
* I looked at the 65 handicap chases run at this festival<br />
* No horse was beaten in a novice or beginners chase and won<br />
* That would be a big problem for me<br />
* I am sure he is underpriced as he is trained by A Martin<br />
* Irish runners have a miserable record in this as well<br />
* GO FOR ONE has a lot of weight with 11st 5lbs<br />
* In this race horses with 11st 3lbs or more were 3-101<br />
* None were aged 10 or more as he is<br />
* Those like him running within 7 weeks were 1-79<br />
* He may just be handicapped a bit high<br />
* NEWBAY PROP pulled up in this race last year<br />
* He probably has a better chance this year<br />
* He doesnt look to be that well handicapped<br />
* An absence and his weight wont make it easy<br />
* The 15 renewals of this race are interesting<br />
* Horses that came from 22f or shorter were 1-63<br />
* Thats a big worry for some horses in this race<br />
* BUTLER´S CABIN -ALRIGHT NOW M´LAD<br />
* OODACHEE -WARPATH -AGGIE´S LAD fail that<br />
* Course winners have a weak 1-75 record in 15 years<br />
* HIGH CHIMES -BUTLER´S CABIN -OPENIDE fail that<br />
* IRISH RAPTOR -LE DUC ALEXANDERTHEGREAT fail that<br />
* Exosed horses (21+ runs) with 1-2-3 runs that season were 0-37<br />
* ARTEEA -BUTLER´S CABIN -BUTLER´S CABIN fail that<br />
* WITHOUT A DOUBT -LE DUC -BROOKLYN BREEZE do<br />
* Exposed horses that were 1-2-3-4 last time out score badly<br />
* They have a poor 1-59 record<br />
* OODACHEE -BOWLEAZE- LE DUC fail that<br />
* BROOKLYN BREEZE also fails that<br />
* No horse aged 10 or more had under 4 runs that season<br />
* All 40 that tried lost in this race<br />
* HIGH CHIMES &#8211; ARTEEA -WITHOUT A DOUBT fail that<br />
* LE DUC &#8211; NEWBAY PROP -BROOKLYN BREEZE also fail that<br />
* All 38 horses that came from a Novice race lost<br />
* The following horses all fail this<br />
* AGGIE´S LAD &#8211; SHOULDHAVEHADTHAT -POKER DE SIVOLA</p>
<p>POSSIBLES</p>
<p>* POKER DE SIVOLA has been the big gamble<br />
* POKER DE SIVOLA is a 6 year old<br />
* Horses aged under 7 like him are 0-19 in this race<br />
* He also comes from a race that wasnt a handicap<br />
* All past 15 winners of this came from a handicap<br />
* In 65 Festival Handicaps only 6 winners were under 7 years old<br />
* They struggled in the 3m handicaps (1-31)<br />
* No horse that age were unplaced last time as he was<br />
* Its a lot to do for a horse with 11st 3lbs in weight<br />
* Especially for a horse with just 5 chase starts<br />
* IRISH RAPTOR was unlucky last time crashing into a rail<br />
* He is on a winning handicap mark from a top stable<br />
* I wouldnt rule him out in this race but the jockey worries me<br />
* He has just 4 rides and a Hunter Chase win and never ridden here<br />
* IRISH RAPTOR may also be a small field horse<br />
* DOUBLE DIZZY also has a lot of weight<br />
* I dont think he is completely out of this<br />
* I cant find a similar enough winner though</p>
<p>SELECTIONS</p>
<p>PRETTY STAR</p>
<p>* PRETTY STAR is pretty interesting<br />
* He has a very similar profile to the 1998 and 2000 winners<br />
* He also comes from the same prep race as the 1998 winner<br />
* He comes from the same Ludlow Handicap 14 days ago<br />
* His chance may depend on whether he has anything in hand<br />
* PRETTY STAR has to be shortlisted</p>
<p>BOWLEAZE is almost statistically perfect but one or two<br />
minor flawes but I forgive him that. He is from a stable that excel in this race. He is best fresh and several recent winners had his profile and I give him a massive chance in this race.</p>
<p>Venetia Williams may well prefer Alexanderthegreat to her<br />
other runners one of whom I like a lot in PRETTY STAR.<br />
You can argue that on the form of their last race its easier to prefer Alexanderthegreat &#8211; and I do think he is a danger but I disagree that he should be the stable choice and feel there are good reasons to prefer PRETTY STAR.</p>
