Here are my prices for the 3yo races tomorrow.
Silver Shadow
Victory Vein 94
Calaway Gal 114
Stratica 81
Smash 121
Royal purler 151
Chocolate Starfish 151

Up& Coming
Thorn Park 52
Choisir 112
Snowland 112
Star Of Florida 81
Half Hennessy 121
Athelnoth 161
Eastwest success 161

Victory Vein and Calaway Gal look the only real chances in the fillies race while the Up & Coming is a very open race. Winter form is often suspect but I think Thorn Park could be an exception. We will know tomorrow one way or the other. I would love to see other handicappers post their prices on these races. Particularly before post time. I have not been on this forum very long but it seems most people just give their selections without any indication of what they consider value.

You seem a very generous bookie, legion.
A wee bit on Victory Vein & Snowland, if you please.

Huge run by Thorn Park!

Ah Paddy,
Those are the prices I required in order to bet on these races. Not as you suggest prices I would lay them at. Sadly I decided to stay out of both as the markets were just too tight on Saturday.I could have got my price for both Snowland and Choisir but that meant taking on Thorn Park and to my mind there was just not enough overs to do that. If only I had the same opportunity as you and be able to bet on Sunday everything would be so much easier.

Have to agree though Thorn Park was a tragedy. Should have won with his ears pricked.I guess you have to believe Dazza when he says the horse had never experienced pressure like that before and just didnt know what was happening.
