Bentley Biscuit lines up in the Group 3 Newcastle Newmarket Tomorrow, going for its 9th successive win - which would equal a 126 year old record. It has been fairly harshly dealt with in the weight department, given 56kgs (more than collate and nips). A win would assure a start in the Doncaster

Nips was an E-E-E-NORMOUS run in the N-N-Newmarket, f-f-f-friends, that makes him the one, for m-m-m-mine.

Are you stuttering?

RULE #1

Bad luck only stops a superior horse, back it like you've already watched it win.

Never get off a horse in form ;)

$2.50 seems extremely generous.

i totally agree Chrome.

If you haven't already, i'd back the biscuit in the doncaster markets, because it will only shorten after tomorrow's run ;)

Yeah Sportz I was stuttering - I wanted to say that Nips was an E-Normous run, and I got carried away and added some more E's, then got carried away with subsequent words. Safest thing is to just ignore my silliness.

duritz, Nips hasn't won a race since 18 Sep 2004, run some cracking races since but wouldn't take less than the $5 that's on Sportsbet now. Looks a very strong place possibility.
Question is where will BB settle in the run? I'd say from bar 10 Bowman will go forward and be outside the lead, then we'll finally see what's under the hood!

Nips might be the only danger to Bentley Biscuit in this they certainly aren't an overly strong bunch of horses in this race. As far as the Biscuit goes good luck to it I hate Waterhouse and every horse she trains I have only every backed 2 horses of hers and luckily they both won one was Arlington Road in a Gr1 mile race can't remember for the life of me what race it was, the other was Phoenix Park which won at enormous odds not sure where it was it was very early on in my punting days.

Sportsman took awhile to hit his straps last start but knows how to hit the line..not done yet the old fella and with Beadman on board and the long straight..he'll be there .
