Weekly Eye-Catchers 24th – 30th July 2023

24th July – 6:50 Windsor

 

Proficent

 

Decent pedigree and caught my eye here. Travelled well in rear, maybe overaced at times, wall of horses Infront with no room, soon pushed along and found nothing off the bit. Probs indicates she isn’t fit and maybe being prepped with handicaps in mind. Look to back in Nursery’s.

 

25th July – 6:00 Wolverhampton 

 

Eminent Jewel 

 

Scottish wankstain brought this to my attention, Nice type. Badly missed break, held up in rear, travelling very smoothly, no clear run at vital time, headway when got gaps ran on very nicely, easily the best horse from this race. Looks to have the ability to be 90+ in my opinion. Keep onside throughout the season.

 

27th July – 4:45 Doncaster 

 

Mathematician 

 

Didn’t go unbacked on handicap debut and slightly disappointed on tough ground.  Hes a Starspangledbanner out of a quick ground mare, so on breeding alone he was up against it in the conditions, ran credible enough in the end. Travelled well enough for a long way, made decent move in the straight but just didn’t want to know on the ground, will get 2lb back for that run and should be backed on quicker ground/AW.

 

28th July – 4:20 Thirsk 

 

Only In Jakarta

 

Big run here after being very well backed. Broke okay but was slightly slow to pick up the bridle, was in the rear of mid div pushed along early, was still very green, did lay him in running cos I thought he was cooked but slowly started to get the message late and flew home from the back, nearly getting up. Huge run and I will want to keep him onside NTO. Wouldn’t mind seeing him gelded.

 

29th July – 2:40 York 

 

Summerghand 

 

Looks to be coming back into form for an autumn campaign. Slow away, travelled well enough, made good headway, and challenged for a place, slightly weak in the finish what isn’t like him probably suggests he was slightly undercooked here. Handicap mark of 97 gives him every chance of landing a big heritage handicap. Back him in the Stewards Cup and the Ayr Gold Cup.

 

29th July – 5:25 Ascot

 

Existent 

 

Weak late in the market, reared when the stalls opened, gave up loads of ground, travelled well but all chance was gone at the start, wasn’t knocked about. Plenty of races for him at this time of year, Sky Bet and Symphony Group Handicap at The Ebor meeting would be my target. Keep onside over 5f.

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...
