Don't we all have 20/20 in hindsight?

Gullcatcher: didn't even think about at the odds

Nova : carried 10kgs less than last start and had no luck in the straight I thought it was a good bet @ 13/2. My main concern was with the distance. It has won up to 1800 but that was a while ago.

West Ward: SHE was never considered at the price

King Lotto: The price thing again

Flying Sparks: chose to ignore last start for the base rating because he drew a nightmare barrier and was snagged straight back to last. (note Awesome Weather was rated 0.5kgs below and was good value, but not included because I said I would only post top rated)

Darcy D'or: yes up in weight 5.5kg but down in class about the same (OHP Rand to SCON Ipswich) has carried big weights well before, probably didn't quite get this distance with this weight. I would say the 2.00 I quoted was too short perhaps 3.00 which would have meant a NO BET.

Timidity: think you'll find it was down in class just as much as Honey Ryder and was fit and in form compared to other horses with a query on their fitness. Although the winner did have a couple of barrier trials.

Charmeuse: too short

Zabarra : very frustrating when the best price is half a point below what you want but you have to draw a line somewhere.

Magic Feather : too short thankfully as it bled and is now banned

Oakfield Duke: due for a loss ???? perhaps didn't penalise heavily enough for combo of weight rise and bad barrier. Perhaps the barrier beat him though as he crossed them pretty comfortably but maybe used to much petrol.

Freddy, let me know when there is a horse with no negatives running so I can get on at 1/2.
