Pertemps Network Final 2019

If he wins tomorrow I wouldn't fancy him?

Might 365 push him out if he qualifies?

They've done some pushouts to counter the cashouts IMO

I'm going to hang fire on him

That's what i thought, and he's a bit high in weights already.
But he's probably got a better chance of winning tomorrow at 12-1.
It'll be hard for the jockey to run down the field and not try if he's fit and fresh and travels well.
wouldn't want a non trier ban either.

I don't bet in these races... it's hard enough when I think all the horses are trying, not as easy when some definitely aren't.

Unless you're in the know... and I'm not.
 
Kapcorse an interesting runner in the final qualifier at Chepstow on Saturday. Lets see if he's declared.
 
Does anyone know if Wait For Me will qualify off a mark of 137

You have to run in a qualifier, and be in the top6 to have a chance of making it into the final. Don't think your horse has been near a qualifier.....

Wait for Me has participated in 3 qualifiers and finished 3 at Wincanton on Boxing Day. His current mark is 137 so still not sure if he will get in, if he does it will be very close

KP,
You are quite correct. My apologies. I would think he'll get in easy. Good luck.

He’s 5lb lower over hurdles than fences.
Entered in 2 Pertemps Qualifiers now (Exeter and Chepstow).

I think they want to keep to handicaps so this is a likely destination but ratings 136 so might need to run well (rather than just finish in top 6) of the qualifier to actually get in the race - fine balancing act between getting in & blowing your mark!

"It's All Guesswork" the one for me to take from that. (Quite an apt name...)
Held in rear and made good progress to finish 3rd without too many questions being asked.
 
I’ve always hated this race. After watching the spectacle that was Tin Soldier today, I continue to do so.

Cap York 132 in Ireland before that so may get in. Choungaya probably would have got in too without the fall. Mormon too low.
 
Anyone see the Irish qualifier just then?

It’s All Guesswork finished third after jogging round near the back and running on under absolutely no pressure. Screamed to me that he’s the one to take from the race.

Anyone see it?

Possibly is rated too low...
Will need some assistance from BOTH Irish and UK Handicappers!
