The Neighsayers - Weekly Eye-Catchers 8th - 14th May 2023

Weekly Eyecatchers 8th – 14th May 2023

 

8th May – Southwell 2:35

 

Kaolinite

 

Ran green, pushed along responded well, not clear run multiple times, gaps late ran on into close 3rd . Will be more streetwise NTO , and should be followed with interest in 5f-6f Novice/maiden.

 

8th May – Worcester 4:50 

 

Floating Rock 

 

Rare Jumps Eyecatcher , Be shocked if he gets away with this ride, not off a yard, jockey was getting too close to the places so he gives it the chicken wing treatment, minimal effort into hurdles, eased for strides on all of them stopping the horse from progressing through the race. Back when he has a proper jockey booked.

 

9th May – Lingfield 

 

Expert Witness 

 

Shaped well in previous runs, Huge price on the machine for 3rd run in a novice , what will work out a very strong novice in time. Out the back from a flag start, never put in the races or knocked about but travelled well enough to suggest she has a decent level of ability. Look to back on handicap debut over 7f or 1m.

 

11th May – Southwell 3:00

 

Moulin Booj

 

Came last here on debut but wasn’t devoid of promise. Slow away, Showed enough speed to suggest he has enough ability to make up into a decent sprinter in time. Nicely buried today, Trainer likes to run them for a mark so I would recommend backing him in sprint handicaps.

 

11th May – Thirsk 6:40 

 

Selbys Joy 

 

2nd time shes made an appearance in the Eyecatchers whilst running for a mark. Buried by Tom Eaves both times but showed more than enough to place or go close in the races if she was let loose. Really interested to see what mark this gets, hopefully in the mid 50s then were all in on handicap debut over 5f-6f, would like to see a decent size break before her next run.

 

12th May – 3:35 Ascot 

 

Quiet Sea

 

Ran a great race on debut, in what I think will be a decent little maiden. Raced keenly and fresh, didn’t really settle fully. Will be miles better with that run under her belt hailing from a yard what never have them fully wound up for a racecourse debut. Back NTO.

 

13th May – Ascot 2:40 

 

Rhoscolyn 

 

Ran well on the back of a wind op, wasn’t knocked about ran on past beaten horses on the far side of the track. Got a nice mark for a Royal Ascot handicap, 6lb lower than his 3rd last year in the Buckingham Palace Stakes. Keep onside at the Royal Meeting.

 

13th May – Lingfield 4:10 

 

Swiss Pride 

 

Dropped to a nice mark for Saturday’s race but pace bias wasn’t in his favour, was in a very unfavourable track position and was given loads to do, ran on under tender handling while the 1-2-3 were all ridden handy. On a handy mark for a 6f race round Lingfield.

The Neighsayers - Weekly Eye-Catchers 23rd - 29th September 2024

Weekly Eyecatchers 23 rd  – 29 th  September 2024   23 rd  September – 7:30 Wolverhampton    Breccia   Come from miles back here off a muddling pace, was stuck behind a horse who was getting eased off at a crucial stage, should have won imo and should be kept on side over staying trips   25 th  September – 6:00 Kempton    Nuptown Girl    Missed break and was slow into stride, green in rear and was always niggled slightly, race had already developed infront of her but she did run on well under tender handling. Will know much more next time out and could improve further for 7f+   27 th  September  - 8:00 Wolverhampton    Bay Of Naples    Hasn’t won for a while but his run here showed enough to me that he could be winning very soon. Raced pretty fresh here after 1 month off the track, raced handy and just got abit tired late on, will come on bundles for this. 17th October at Southwell f...

The Neighsayers - Friday 13th September

  No blog yesterday for the first day of the Leger meeting, mainly due to uncertainty around the ground we were getting. We’re back for day 2 though. 15:00 Doncaster - Big Mojo A lot to like about this horses chance today, starting with the drop back to minimum trip, showed his usual pace at York but failed to stay. Looks to be plenty of pace on in here too with Aesterius drawn on his side and then King’s Call, Zayer and Tropical Storm over the other side. If he sit’s just off these and strikes late he should emulate last year’s success for connections with Big Evs. A somewhat shock winner at Goodwood but should that was no fluke when running a good race at York when not staying as I’ve mentioned.  Selection - Big Mojo 5/2 General - 1pt win 16:10 Doncaster - Beatrice Shilling This favourite, Cabrera has to be taken on for me. So will be going in with Beatrice Shilling here. Without getting all cliche, she was doing her best work late at Salisbury and prove she stayed the trip,...

The Neighsayers - Thursday 5th September

 Nice to get on the board for September yesterday with Snow Berry winning at 15/2 (or 9/1 if you had the luxury), but with the 2pt bet going down it wasn't as good as we'd hoped for, but profit on the day nevertheless. 17:35 Lingfield - Ormolulu Think this is well worth an each way bet now seeing 7 furlongs for the first time and returning to the all-weather. Dropped down in the handicap considerably this year, beginning on 79 and comes here off 70 with the jockey claiming 3. This is the lowest grade of race she's ever contested too, being a 51-70 and now in a fillies only race that can only be a positive too. The favourite takes up a lot of the market here and he's not guaranteed to get his own way in front this time, with Twilight Dancer and Beveragino in the race and I think he's well worth taking on. She was keen in her 3 year old campaign but the hood seemed to have worked the oracle there and hopefully can continue to do so with the slower tempo of a 6 furlong...
