Rizz had one of those days on Wednesday when nothing seemed to go to plan. Both of his selections unseated their rider which is just one of things you can do nothing about.
Although there is four meetings on within the UK and Ireland on Thursday I struggled to find much worth talking about. I found myself concentrating on the meeting at Musselburgh and I have found one selection that I liked the look of.
Cairnzy's Tips
Johnny Ringo 2/1 – Musselburgh 1.00
This race is a bit on the risky side, as we are betting in a race which a fair few are making their debut over hurdles, so of course their jumping ability has to be taken on trust and my selection Johnny Ringo certainly falls into that category.
There's No Limit is the only horse in the lineup with hurdle experience, and although experience can prove an important factor, I'm quietly confident that this will go to one of the newcomers. The two horses that I narrowed this down to were Johnny Ringo and Spartan Warrior, both of whom achieved respectable ratings when running on the flat.
Spartan Warrior achieved an OR on the flat of 70, which in the grand scheme of things is pretty bang average but he did rattle a couple of wins of back in May and stays these middle distances quite well. Furthermore, the Rebecca Menzies yard are throwing up the odd winner here and there and she has booked former champion jockey Brian Hughes for the ride.
I opted against Spartan Warrior and decided on the Lucinda Russell-trained Johnny Ringo who I thought had a stronger chance of winning this contest. Johnny Ringo notably achieved a higher rating on the flat compared to Spartan Warrior ( currently rated 80 ). My selection was last seen when finishing second at Newcastle on the all-weather, not beaten far by the now 88 rated Charlottes Web from the Simon & Ed Crisford yard. Similar to Spartan Warrior, Johnny Ringo also stays these middle distances quite well and I felt he had more scope for progression taking this step up in trip. I think if he jumps well, or at least to a decent enough standard he should should have too much speed for this lot in the run-in. Notably, Lucinda Russell won this race last year and she holds strong claims once more with Johnny Ringo.

Nice to see a new contributor mate,
Good luck ?
CC where did you get IMPERO at 11/10 Was betting it myself same time As you posted and its 1/2 4/7 everywhere .

Soar point
The bet is “to be placed double”
Both horse to be placed
CC How do you get 11/10 to place when horse is only 1/2 to win .Even a place double on your two odds on shots wouldnt pay 11/10 and with which bookie is giving these odds would be a help
TO place is 1/5th of the odds so a 1/5th of a 1/2 and an even money would still be way odds on
To be placed double I.e. both horses mentioned to be placed. ?

If he runs to form and as he did when 2nd on his seasonal bow last year splitting fastorslow and galopin des champs should be getting his first win in 2 years.

Elvis dont usually bet in Ireland but what you say looks good so give it a go.

Not happy Bangor on Saturday already abandoned .Although its waterlogged and river is now full 16 metres deep so no chance of drying out.
Shit, was thinking of going there if Bangor’s game in Buckley is called off ⚽☔.
Was looking at Ludlow next Wednesday too.
Like it there midweek this time of year, just racing people there, no coaches loaded with boisterous piss heads there to make noise and have no interest in the racing.
Courses love them because they spend loads on food and drink, that’s why avoid Chester and other such courses.
Give me Ludlow, Bangor , uttoxeter, ffos las, cartmel etc any day of the week.
I’m sounding like a miserable old cnut aren’t I, probably because I am one ?
Good card at Newbury tomorrow ?.
honey jack 12.15 well done all winners yesterday
Holloway queen 1-10 lingfield 3-1 bet365.
Henderson/boinville only runner today.
Ran 2nd in a point then bought for 180 grand
Like the odds on favourite hasn’t jumped a twig in public so 4-7 for jasmine bliss seems short despite the ones he has accrued in bumpers
Have dancer wins 7-2 SP ??.
didn’t see the race as sky racing had the lingfield race on.
Holloway queen won too 16-5 (weird odds).
This and the runner up could be fairly decent nags….
