Not the greatest ride, not sure it needed pushing along that early when the two horses in front were never gonna give up a path on the bend. Ended up losing all momentum.Addick Addict said:
This is the War And Peace story to date. Its jockey has just warmed up for this race with a 2nd!Addick Addict said:
Entered in Lingfield 11.45 tomorrow:Addick Addict said:
Not been declared for Saturday. Not totally surprised, especially if the next run is to be a typical Tony Carroll plot, because Poetic Force's recent wins have been following an absence of three or four weeksAddick Addict said:
It's entered in the Wolverhampton 8.15 on Saturday - a Class 4 race over a slightly further trip. Just raiding the piggy bank to see what I can get together!Addick Addict said:Not a tip but a horse I have been following and that is Poetic Force in the Wolverhampton 6.30.
The gelding is 4 from 7 at Wolverhampton and back down to a decent mark. Would be happier if this wasn't a Class 3 and if PF was stepped back up even further in trip but I am convinced that this is an accident waiting to happen! So, at 12/1 (was 16/1) happy to have an interest today. On the nose too because EW isn't really an option given that it is 7 runners so first two only.
Class 4 - tick
!m 2f - tick
Price: 11/1 - tick
Will to win? - hopefully a tick!!!0 -
On a roll.CAFCsayer said:Starfighter in the next
I promise never to mention Poetic Force again. It looks like it needs even further. Perhaps the Grand National!!!1 -

Zee Man entered up for Fakenham Friday4
-
Olly’s message today on Zee Man is as follows....
Step upto 3 mile will help plus the 7lb off and cheekpieces on to hopefully settle into an early rhythm and if he does he is the one to beat.Also entered up for a race next Wednesday at Market Rasen.

That was bad luck. The one horse caused 3 to fall and only 7 in the race.0

Holy shit. That is diabolical luck.
Bad luck Killer. I hope he's OK.

No reports from track but he looked to get up and run away OK. Still can't believe what happened and have watched recording again and still no idea just more wound up by it. Oh well hopefully all ok and onwards and upwards1

Midlands National day.
Official going "Soft" though it might not be the bog that it can be at Uttoxeter today.
3 each way fancies for me at the prices:
Prime Venture (25/1 with Bob 4 places), off same mark as when staying-on 5th in the Welsh GN. Close 4th (4.25L) in this 2 years ago, again off the same mark but no Potters Corner in his prime in oppo today.
Achille (18/1 with Skybet 7 places), strongly staying on but just held by Lord Du Mesnil in the GNT (having done likewise in the Warwick Betfred Classic) - up 4lbs for his Haydock run but furthest trip he's attempted should suit - pedigree screams 4 miles.
The Two Amigos (16/1), again representing the form of the Welsh GN and GNT.

Interesting to see you call out Prime Venture Peanuts, I was going to back him yesterday 28/1 7 places with Sky but got distracted by work and the next time I looked he was 20/1 and is now 18s so I feel like I've missed the boat now - Bob's lot don't allow me to put on more than a quid! I backed him at Chepstow twice and in this last year so guessing he bolts up now!
Also though Final Nudge was interesting yesterday when he was in the 20s, down to 10 now!
I would like to see The Two Amigos come in, been knocking on the door for a big race for a while.1 -
Hoping for a bit more luck with my horse today and it’s Peanuts favourite of mine Lily The Pink cue the music.............Fontwell 3.55.
A rock solid horse who gives 100% every time and is always there or thereabouts.Always get the same message from Anthony as he says easy to train gives 100% every time and never throws in a bad race or workout at home simply loves everything she does.
As for the Midlands National it could be Regal Encores last race unless JP wants to say goodbye at the Punchestown Festival so definitely a few sentimental pennies on that one from me.
Update on Zee Man up about and out for a trot this morning so all fine with him,still can’t believe what happened and watched it again.........nothing like torturing yourself just like watching Charlton for over 40 years!!!!!!!
Olly May even consider a hurdle race for Zee Man to get his confidence back if he feels its needed?3 -

Hope Regal signs off in style for the yard - British trainers could do with some medicinal compound after last week

My horse Vorashann running today at Kempton in the 240pm / I don’t think he is a betting proposition will need the run - just hoping for a clear round ! 🙏5

Having backed him and watched him run on a bit too late in the Welsh GN, I’ll be on Prime Venture today too. Sorry, Peanuts !1
