27/9

Lesson learned yesterday - these maidens are very unpredictable, and yet again JAmie Spencer manages to get a favourite unplaced ( no conspiracy theories!)
Pennys Gift - when you have a price gap of 6/4 - - - 14/1 well that says it all and Pennys Placed at 1.62 and that really should have been a selection on price gap alone regardless of the 29 runners!

So Chocalicious, despite, heavy support (in a nother maiden) unpalced and Standpoint a convenient (not) 4th I always chose just one a day so missed out on the first choice Chocalicious

305 ASCOT
BETTING FORECAST: 4/9 Rainbow View, 5/1 Fantasia, 8/1 Dreamtheimpossible, Golden Stream, 40/1 Brief Candle, 50/1 Silver Games, 66/1 Beat Seven, 100/1 Never Lose.

SPOTLIGHT VERDICT: It is difficult to get away from RAINBOW VIEW who has oozed class in all her starts and clearly rates ahead of two of her principal rivals in Fantasia and Golden Stream on collateral formlines. That said, the latter pair, in company with Irish challenger Dreamtheimpossible, are unexposed and this could be messy with no guaranteed pace. Golden Stream is suggested as the best each-way option and forecast proposition

Well at least 4 perceived outsiders and a short priced favourite. 4 perceived outsiders - if we can be so bold as to dismiss their chances of invovement in the finish, then the remaining 4 horses have 1 to beat to place.
1.45 win 1.09 place
Is there any reason why we cannot be adventrous here - I know yesterday I strayed from the rock solid selections but 4 horses, in the live market, are 50/1 or bigger so probability wise, can we not boost the 1.09 place for the obvious contender by backing one selection from the remaining 4? Most obvious is Fantasia -2nd fav at 1.61

415
BETTING FORECAST: 11/10 Henrythenavigator, 15/8 Tamayuz, 100/30 Raven´s Pass, 25/1 Sabana Perdida, 50/1 Winker Watson, 100/1 Racinger, 200/1 Honoured Guest.

SPOTLIGHT VERDICT: The European miling championship is up for grabs here and TAMAYUZ (nap) is expected to claim the crown. It was impossible not to be impressed with the way he brushed aside the opposition in the Marois and it looks like he has more to offer. Today's ground will suit Henrythenavigator better than that he encountered in the Moulin last time but he is no certainty to confirm his earlier superiority over Raven's Pass, who allowed the O'Brien colt first run in both the St James's Palace and the Sussex but has since shown that he does not need to be ridden with such exaggerated hold-up tactics

A potential 3 horse race here in a 7 runner field - so the 3 have to beat 1 horse to place
PLACES
Henry 1.47
Tamayuz - 1.67
Ravens Pass 1.97
Big rellative place only prices given only 2 the place

CHESTER
215
BETTING FORECAST: 7/4 Purple Sage, 2/1 Persian Memories, 7/1 Diamond Surprise, 10/1 Damselfly, Lindy Hop, Miss Mojito, 12/1 Do The Deal, 33/1 Granny McPhee, 50/1 Avonlini, 66/1 Haafhds Delight, Hindford Oak Sioux, Welsh Passion.

We have seen how poorly maidens have performed when "price gappers" -Imaan unplaced, MAster Rooney unplaced ( at 1/20 on to place)
Of interest here is the 5 horses post 33/1 - support has come for the fav but this is another maiden fillies race

550 GREAT LEIGHS
BETTING FORECAST: 11/8 Wellington Square, 7/2 Vine Street, 13/2 Scarab, 8/1 Time To Play, 10/1 Distinctive Image, Mutawahej, Streets Apart, 33/1 Prairie Hawk, 66/1 Stormy Summer, Wild By Nature.

SPOTLIGHT VERDICT: WELLINGTON SQUARE has shaped with promise on both starts to date and looks to have a good chance to get off the mark. Vine Street might be capable of better away from easy ground, whilst Scarab is worth a check in the market

Placed last two times but another maiden race

850
BETTING FORECAST: 7/4 Hattan, 9/4 Red Gala, 5/2 Tempelstern, 14/1 Supersonic Dave, 16/1 Dansili Dancer, 25/1 Big Robert, 33/1 Judgethemoment, Talenti.
SPOTLIGHT VERDICT: HATTAN will be hard to beat if reproducing the form of his two Group Three Polytrack wins this year and he shapes as if this extra distance shouldn't be a problem. Red Gala looks the best alternative.[HT]

A potential 3 horse race and 3 to place - so its simply getting the right selection of the 3 most likely

405 HAYDOCK
BETTING FORECAST: 9/4 Lilly Blue, 7/2 Fallen In Love, 11/2 Polly´s Mark, 6/1 Piquante, Valletta, 10/1 Bessie Lou, 12/1 Holamo, 20/1 Diesis Of Cloyne, 25/1 Step Fast, 28/1 Suitably Accoutred, 50/1 Kilsyth, 66/1 Shanavaz,

SPOTLIGHT VERDICT: Lilly Blue could be hard to beat if she reproduces what she appeared to show at Goodwood but a more solid option may be fellow Classic entrant FALLEN IN LOVE, whose yard has won this race four times in the past decade. None of the newcomers hold fancy engagements but any market moves should be noted all the same.
Not another maiden! Fallen in lovce interestingly into 7/4 with Lilly Blue out to 4/1 but this did nothing for Chocalicious yesterday - Piquante a non runner makes life easier ( installed as 4th fav so one less rival to worry about)

355 MARKET RASEN
BETTING FORECAST: 4/7 Ouzbeck, 11/2 My Turn Now, 8/1 Nikola, St Mellion Freeway, 14/1 Commemoration Day, Lorum Leader, 25/1 Bougoure, 66/1 Moon Melody.

SPOTLIGHT VERDICT: An interesting event in which unbeaten chaser OUZBECK makes plenty of appeal. He's hardly put a foot wrong in three starts over fences, should have no problems with this longer trip and can take this en route to better things. My Turn Now looks the chief threat.

Little bit of money for My Turn now with fav currently 4/5 "should" have no problems with longer trip - if backing 4/5 we want to see " WILL" have no....
8 runners is 3 the place - 2 horses at 40/1 and 100/1 should reduce the competitive field

505
BETTING FORECAST: 4/5 Frascati Park, 4/1 Son Of Flicka, 7/1 Ardglen, Knock Em Dead, 14/1 All Three Fables, Kingsben, 33/1 Quoquille Des Sacart, 66/1 Newgatehopeful.

SPOTLIGHT VERDICT: This looks a good opportunity for easy C&D winner FRASCATI PARK to add to his tally. He lost nothing in defeat in a stronger race than this one at Galway when last seen in early August and is taken to beat Son Of Flicka.

A bumper race so market important

A lot to mull over today from a place only perspective.
Obvious candidate is Rainbow View, but the obvious-ness is figured into the 1.09 price.
SHORTLIST
Perhaps Fantasia to place at 1.61 in the same race from a probability perspective?
1.48 for Henry the navigator is enticing? Perhaps in his race backing the live market favourite to place will ensure the most popular of the 3 most likely will be on our side
The 850 at GReat LEighs is another possible probability type race

FINAL SELECTION - will be in the first named race at Ascot and Fantasia to place from a probability perspective OR the 2nd favourite in the live market to Rainbow View if it is not Fantasia - this will enable us to capture any likely fancy. Of course rock solid is Rainbow view to keep the record up.

EACH WAY
230 ASCOT
BETTING FORECAST: 9/4 Cityscape, 7/2 Orizaba, 5/1 Almiqdaad, 7/1 Indian Ocean, 8/1 On Our Way, 14/1 Patrician´s Glory, 16/1 Jukebox Jury, 33/1 Firth Of Fifth, Set Sail, 40/1 Measurement.

SPOTLIGHT VERDICT: A true test looks assured but it can pay to take the slight risk about ORIZABA's stamina. There was no sign of him stopping over 7f at Goodwood and, with that form solid, he can defy a penalty at the main expense of highly promising Cityscape, who is taken to reverse Newmarket form with Almiqdaad now they are on an equal footing in terms of experience
Almiqdaad and Indian Ocean each way incasse the front 2 don't consent to give their rnning

340
BETTING FORECAST: 10/1 Mastership, Zaahid, 12/1 Giganticus, 14/1 Atlantic Story, Military Cross, Relative Order, 16/1 Furnace, We´ll Come, 20/1 Big Noise, Cape Hawk, Dhaular Dhar, Extraterrestrial, Markab, Signor Peltro, 25/1 Bolodenka, Golden Desert, Hitchens, Skhilling Spirit, South Cape, Underworld, 28/1 Conquest, 33/1 Flipando, Pearly Wey, Vanderlin, 40/1 Celtic Sultan, 50/1 Al Muheer, Caldra, Phantom Whisper, Tamagin.

SPOTLIGHT VERDICT: Scottish raider Dhaular Dhar deserves a big prize after his fine C&D seconds in the Buckingham Palace and the totesport International and back under his ideal conditions he has to be high on the list. The smart Polytrack performer Atlantic Story is also interesting now back at a more suitable trip off his lower grass mark as this surface should prove ideal, but preference is for RELATIVE ORDER who has done nothing but improve all year and has won his only start on the track.

Huge field - lowest price is 12/1 the fav! I will ignore all selections 20/1 and lower and chance Signor Peltro ( 22/1) , Golden Desert ( 25/1) and Extraterrestrial(25/1) the next 3 over 20/1 each way - I expect no return whatsoever bt, hey, at the prices.....!

415 ASCOT -using speciailist software I would engineer a win on Tamayuz and break even on the other 2 horses just to speculatie on the piggy in the middle! - stakes are just for examples sake.

SPOTLIGHT VERDICT: PERSIAN MEMORIES ran way above market expectations at Goodwood when last seen and is taken to progress past 76-rated Purple Sage.

Diamond Surprise each way for me with Damselfly a non runner and the race type hopefully ensuring one ( or preferably both) of the first 2 dont give their running

320 CHESTER
BETTING FORECAST: 9/4 Surrealism, 4/1 Filigree Lace, 5/1 Hamalka, Royal Manor, 7/1 Emirates Lady, 8/1 Turfwolke, 12/1 Cullybackey, 25/1 Elusive Deal, 50/1 Madame Rio, 100/1 Enjoy The Mood, 150/1 Miss Ferney, Tot Hill.

SPOTLIGHT VERDICT: Well-bred SURREALISM was a bit green on her debut but showed plenty of promise and should be more clued up this time. She'll take a bit of beating, especially if she's positively ridden to take advantage of her draw on the inside rail, with her more dangerous opponents, Filigree Lace, Royal Manor and Hamalka all drawn quite wide

Emirates LAdy and Cullybackety each way given the race type - 5th and 7th betting forecast favs

650 GREAT LEIGHS

Another maiden race and Loulou and Rawaaj each way against the most likely pair in the hope the race type springs a surprise

405 HAYDOCK
BETTING FORECAST: 9/4 Lilly Blue, 7/2 Fallen In Love, 11/2 Polly´s Mark, 6/1 Piquante, Valletta, 10/1 Bessie Lou, 12/1 Holamo, 20/1 Diesis Of Cloyne, 25/1 Step Fast, 28/1 Suitably Accoutred, 50/1 Kilsyth, 66/1 Shanavaz,
