His other horse has a speedy
Maiden win, but coming off the layoff, so may not be ready and looks like the possible pacesetter in here so will likely be pressed very hard, especially be the 9. 6 horse may have the whole thing fall in his lap especially, if he runs back to his maiden win. This is the kind of over analysis that usually gets me beat.
Yeah, we all do it at some point..for many moons now I mainly concentrate on the horse's running lines..In my mind I allocate 90% to the horse 5% each to trainer and jock..but that's just me..
