Weekly Eye-Catchers 26th Feb –  3rd March 2024

 

27th Feb – 3:20 Catterick 

 

Treaty Boy 

 

Was ridden too confidently here and lost to a better positioned horse on what was fairly deep ground. Has taken to chasing really well, looks a complete natural and was just too far back at a crucial stage to run down the front runner. Judging by the move he made in the straight, this still has loads under the bonnet and should be reaching marks 115+ in the coming months. Will like to see him ridden more prominently. Keep onside.

 

27th Feb – 7:00 Southwell

 

Broxi 

 

Showed that her head is still in the game with a decent enough run here in what looks a good race for the grade. Was sent on to lead but that was taken off her early doors, was allowed to drop back and made a decent enough challenge but wasn’t knocked about too much. Has bled in the past but id take my chance on her being nicely handicapped now. She has dropped 15lb below her last winning mark, and she can now race in classified company.  The 0-50 7f Classified on the 16th March at Southwell looks the obvious next race for her, she is a C&D winner and she can race against much inferior rivals than what she has been facing of recent. Wouldn’t mind some headgear. Does have an entry for Newcastle on the 7th, will be playing small if declared as its tough to make all at Toon.

 

28th Feb – 3:50 Bangor 

 

Bob O Rhino 

 

Nice enough run without getting too close to the front 2. Went from the front, slightly keen but jumped well, could have got 3rd if given a more vigorous ride. Id be following into handicaps at your lesser tracks. 

 

1st March – 3:12 Lingfield 

 

Mums Tipple 

 

Good run here first time out. Out the back with plenty to do, was making very good headway but was denied a clear run multiple times. Showed he still retains the majority of his ability, would be interested in backing in The Lady Wuflruna on the 9th March, hopefully that race doesn’t come too soon.

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...
