‘26 FRED WINTER Juv H’cap Hd

Think Saratoga has done well there personally. Kilmeaden backers cant be overly pleased.
 
….picking a few unconfirmed from X;

Saratoga 130
Selma De Vary 138
Munsif126
Glen To Glen 129
Harwa 132
Highland 138
Bertutea 136
Barbizon 134
Madness D’elle 133
Kilmeaden 133
Ole Ole 128
Manoir 129
Dignam 129
Mange 138
Dawn Coming 125
Kizlyar 124
 
Interesting how the top of the market is quite tightly bunched. Just 5lb separate the top 5 in the betting over a range of 126 - 131.
 
….from Jake Price;

Harshest Treated;
Kilmeaden +7
Barbizon +6
Madness D’elle +6
Dawn Coming +6
Wackestone +6
Kizlyar +6

Nicest Treated;
Wizard of Oz +1
Sopelana +1
Selma de Vary +2
Secret Force +2
 
Will Munsif get in? Hes 32nd on the list. Even with Mange & Selma going Triumph he needs a right few not to go.
 
If Munsif is probably, secret force has no chance! Sure he’s at 43. Almost like the handicapper has deliberately left a couple very light on tax on purpose.
 
Backed Ben Hur 50/1 with 365 is way too big in comparison with some other bookies.

Trainer winning the race in 2021 so knows what it takes.

Going to be very tight for Munsif I'd say, hard to see many coming out above him - not that many with other entries bar the top 3 and a couple of the Gigginstown horses.
 
Not one i've backed but Genaology entered in a maiden at Navan saturday.
Might want to get a 5lb penalty ??

also one of elliots entered up which probably means he's not coming over. manoir de mirande rated 129

Will need it to get in.
 
Looks like this year the minimum rating will be way above previous years, hoping munsif does get in lol
 
Interesting - as you know ive backed, then heard the weird guy on X also has backed him. So he needs to run at the weekend to pump his mark up to guarantee a run ? Or does he need to go close to winning to get in ? Or if he won by a wide margin it wouldnt matter ? Sorry this is the stuff i know nothing about.

He'll be on 124 after the penalty if he wins so still behind a lot

his rating will only change if he wins, and it is a 5lb rise/penalty if he does win.
