Bets 24/11/2012

3/6 yesterday. Somewhat obvious picks, but I’ll take it. Hendo has his army out. Few big accs will go in today. Nicholls is really bullish about all his horses at the moment, but does concede that if Long Run shows up nothing will beat him

Tom Pricewise Segal from the Racingpost has picked out:

Haydock 2.30 - Sivola De Sivola 13/2, Barafundle 10/1

Haydock 3.05 - Weird Al 6/1

Ascot 1.40 – A race not really to bet on as it revolves around the fitness of Bunglasha Lady. By far the best horse in the field, but with 1.5years off needs to be a solid training performance. At a long price there’s one other horse with decent credibility in this field. A Little Swifter 25/1. Likes soft ground and looking at last two listed handicap races, this form is solid, especially the Kells Belle line.

Ascot 2.10 – There’s certain horses I just can’t and won’t take on. Finian’s Rainbow 11/10 is one of them

Ascot 2.45 – Oscar Whisky 4/5 – was gutted when fell in this race last year. Hopefully can make amends.

Haydock 12.20 – Balder Success 4/7 is not worth backing at the odds, but looks ahead of this field. McCain reckons Hollow Tree wants further. BS has solid Ascot form too.

Haydock 12.55 – Couple I like in this. Lamb or Cod’s 11/2 form is solid after the other two Hobbs horses in the Silver Trophy went on to post decent efforts. Bar De Ligne’s 14/1 effort behind Trustan Times is solid and TT is also running later today!

Haydock 2.30 – Segal has already tipped two, which is annoying because as above I like Trustan Times 20/1. Handicapper has been a tad harsh, but if you watch the way he powered home last time out you’ll see why 20/1 is big. For me the obvious danger is Katkeau 13/2 who hacked up in similar level races in France. Pipe has won this a couple time before, so watch out!

Haydock 3.05 – I’m not opposing Long Run 13/8. Emotive punting, yes, but he’s still better than these lot on paper. Big Henderson Treble please

Haydock 3.40 – Master Overseer 5/1. Pipe reckons this is tailor-made for him
