Harris, Morris, and a TOTAL obsession.....

You know you've got it bad, when it's half midnight, you're STILL at work, and you think hmmm, best pop a short blog up"....

So short 'n' sweet it shall be kept.

For the peeps who read my *cough* slight, ahem, moan about a certain race in the "Noverre to Go, Noverre to Hide" post yesterday, tomorrow is indeed D-Day for me, my opinion and the horse that is "Total Obsession"...having his first stab at 10 furlongs at Lingfield with the super switched on Joey Haynes (7) on top, I give him a MASSIVE chance, let's not kid ourselves, it's low grade stuff, he is technically the second best horse in the race, and he's only rated 53, but this I TRULY beleive is his optimum distance, and I simply can't see him out of the 3, and at 6/1 he looks a CRACKING e/w bet to nothing......



As for a quick summery on todays "action", all I can say is, key an eye on, as I do, the potent all weather combo of Ron Harris and Luke Morris, securing doubles (4/6 & 10/1, 3/1 & 7/4) in the opening races two days in sucession, keep backing them before the value vanishes,  I remember when I discovered, before most,  a certain Dandy Nichols had a knack of training sprinters, that made me a few quid back in the day....


Some good pointers are:

1. Keep a firm eye on Robert Tart (7) and Phillip Prince (7) who ride some pro's to sleep, so any fancied horse is technically 7lb "well in" with either of themm on top.

2. Morris/Harris, I CANNOT stress this enough, they are a LETHAL team, and the value is still just about there.

3. Richard Hannon has started slower than usual with a few shorties biting the dust with Hughey up top, look to lay them in small fields, or look to back against them if you're not a Betfair player until the ominus bandwagoin of winners starts.

4. WGM Turner duly won the Broklesby, as per usual, that lovely lil' horse "Mick's Yer Man" has already had the Lily Agnes Stakes as Chester nominated by the trainer as his next target, where he has enough early pace to act on the course, and granted a good low draw, he should win, most likely at around 6/4.

5. Finally, "Elusive Hawk" is entered in the 16:20 at Southwell on Wednesday, his run today was some sort of miracle getiing to within a length of the leading duo, i'll let the ATR analysys do the talking: 

"raced wide tracked leaders, carried very wide bend entering final 2f and badly hampered by loose horse and lost many lengths, ran on final furlong (unlucky)"

BACK HIM NEXT TIME, Kirby will be MEGA hungry for the win!!!!




That's about it today, apart from the MIGHTY Black Caviar (only 16h2 tall but weighs 620kg, thats a full 50kg more clout than a 17h2 Denman!!!) may well go for the Diamond Jubilee, Kings Stand, impregnated by Frankel treble later this year, could never do that myself, no stamina!!!!

Be Lucky!!! (and back Total Obsession!!!)
