Have spent a week or so becoming au fait with the jumps season, and am going to start gearing up my betting over sticks whilst I phase out the flat bets.
Some really good racing at Wetherby today, and with rain here, a few miles down the road, I expect conditions a fair bit softer than predicted. 3:05...a cracking maiden chase, featuring 2 graduates I reall like. Preferences is for KING OF CONFUSION...3pts win 3:35...interesting handicap, with New Alco a young horse I imagine will do well in time. Gonna take a chance with MANDINGO CHIEF off his featherweight, and he may be able to dictate matter. 2pts win 4:10...slight question over his fitness, but TOWN CRIER is thrown in if ready to go. 2pts win. Uttoxeter 3:45...Sam Adamson can go in again. 3pts win. 4:20...Bermuda Pointe. 4pts win. Lingfield 2:55...Fast Heart 2pts win 4:30...Bobsleigh 1pt e/w 5:00...Ballybeg 2pts win

Have been taking it steadily with the jumps season thus far, but I reckon today sees an outstanding bet.
STRONG RESOLVE 3:10, Haydock. 10pts win @ 9/4. This fella lost his way last season, but as a consequence is dangerously well handicapped, some 17lbs lower than when runner-up in the Welsh Grand National in Dec 04. However he made a most encouraging reappearance last month when a narrow second to a well treated rival, the pair well clear. 9/4 represents outstanding value against a field of horses largely handicapped out of things. Showers a predicted at Haydock, the softer the better.

Fancy a few today, put far too hungover to place more than two bets. TARANIS. 1:55 @ Chp This horse is a monster, starting him off over hurdles and prolly wont be 100% fit. No matter, will absolutely slaughter this lot. 8pts win ALFIE FLITS. 2:40 @ Nwb Testing condions will hold no fears and must go close. 3pts win Good Luck folks!
