10/03/26 4:40 Cheltenham - The Plate System

 

4:40 The Plate 

1st Booster Bob 12/1 - 50

1st Riskintheground 33/1 - 50

2nd No Questions Asked 12/1 -45

3rd Western Zephyr 50/1 - 40

 

A few negatives here, i just wanted to point them out - Jungle Boogie ran 3 times at Cheltenham and not very well, but still scored 30 in this. Boombawn and Jipcot have question marks over their Cheltenham form.

Booster Bob will love the trip and ground, he was 5th here last time out but im inclined to forgive that due to the soft ground, he will appreciate this ground much better. 

Riskintheground is highly handicapped, the ground will suit though and he has won at Cheltenham, i would prefer even dryer ground for him though. 

No Questions Asked has a few question marks, didnt run well over hurdles here, and seems to do much better right handed. Ground and distance is fine

Western Zephyr is a massive price, he was once quite classy but has dropped a little. he was once 2nd in the Arkle, if he recaptures that form then he has claims, he showed some zest last time out for new connections. 

I think Booster Bob is a good price and worth a go

My Selection: Booster Bob 12/1

05/04/25 4:00 Aintree - The Grand National System

4:00 The Grand National  1st Vanillier 10/1 - 60 2nd Minello Indo 25/1 - 55 3rd I Am Maximus 13/2 - 50 4th Chantry House 100/1 - 45 5th Bravemansgame 50/1 - 40   This system has done very well for National horses in the past, however it is important to bare in mind that this is all based on stats and trends. So a horse who has won the race before is slightly favoured. So it does come as a little shock that Vanillier came top.  Vanillier was 2nd in this race in 2023 off 147, and why im highlighting this race as that day it was good to soft that day as it will be on Saturday, he is rated 147 this time and in 2023 he carried 10st 6lb. Everything is the same as 2023, the only difference is he is 2 years older. His run last time out was much better than the 3rd, as they jockey nearly took the wrong course and dropped right back in the field. Last year it was soft ground, he carried 6lb and it was a lot harder, this year there are more things in his favour. Minella Indo a forme...

27/12/25 2:50 Chepstow - Welsh National System

  1st Mr Vango 7/1 - 55 2nd O'Connell 7/1 - 45 2nd Nassalam 22/1 - 45   3 horses on 40 - Haiti Couleurs, Monbeg Genius and Collectors Item. Mr Vango came clear here the rest were all very close indeed.  Mr Vango is so consistent he will stay all day, he jumps well, the ground will be fine, although he would probably prefer some rain. He has never been to Chepstow, but his stats suggest the track will not be an issue. The only slight negative would be the quick turn around from his last race.  O'Connell  is very similar to Mr Vango in that he stays, the ground in his case is perfect, my only negative is in 7 attempts he has not won going left-handed and only placed once. He definitely prefers right-handed tracks. If that doesn't inconvenience him, he will have a chance. Nassalam has not been the same horse of late. Since winning this race in 2023 he has only completed a race once in 6 tries, with 5 P's next to his name. It does mean because of that he has slipped...
