The Neighsayers - Weekly Eye-Catchers 10th -17th 2024

Weekly Eyecatchers 10th-17th March 2024

 

13th March – 1:10 Huntingdon 

 

Dusautior 

 

Looked to improve for a fence and wind op. held up out the back, made some mistakes and never really got into a rhythm, made good headway into the race and stayed on into 3rd. will be cherry ripe next time out now the horse knows he can breathe, id say this is 100+ rated.

 

15th March – 6:00 Wolverhampton 

 

Billiegee

 

Trained on well and was only beaten here by a better positioned horse. Travelled well but always shaped Asif a further step up in trip would suit, +1.17% finishing speed over race finish % would also suggest that. Has turf experience and would be fine over 10f-12f on flat tracks. 

 

Suitable targets

 

10th April - 11f 66-85 3yo Kempton 

26th April -10f 66-85 3yo Doncaster

 


16th March – 2:10 Kempton 

 

West Balboa 

 

Skelton is in flying form at the moment so this may have been spotted by too many people. Held up in rear, never really put in the race, travelled with enthusiasm and shaped like a big performance is round the corner. Obvious race for this would be the 3m 1/2f Handicap Hurdle at Aintree on the 13th April, a race he won last year off 135 and i think he would still be in with a good chance of taking it out off his current mark of 142.

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...
