crisp 73 great facts again on the Sandown Gold Cup hepefully a small bet will pay off this time – I am going to do some study myself on this one, given time, rather than just look at others posts.

Silver Birch use your winnings and take the wife and family on holiday! Now if only I can get one of those on investmesnts next Saturday – come on people help me out and I will see what i can do also. Anymore trends for Sandown Gold Cup anyone?

It will help if people can post their top 3 against the field from now to Friday as by Saturday the value will be all gone (but dont get me wrong better Saturday morning than Saturday night!!)

Anyone know the expected going?

Wing Commander Showlad reporting in! Sir!
Well Glad I kepot my head and more or less recouped on EW bets on Curch I sland and Out The Black.
Looking forward to the real deals keeping going on the Grand National Analysis thread, of whom I can hopefully be lucky enough to count myself amongst.. Let’s get the core trends agreed, keep the fringe ones to ourselves and move forward. The most impressive for me from the 2 national Nationals were Church Island and of course Hello Bud with Out The Black showing potential.
Best to All – let’s keept it going through the Summer and Autumn – bfeore you know it, lol, God blessing us, we’ll all be escaping the commercialism of Christmas and looking to the Welsh National The Welsh for me is now by FAR the most important and greatest yard stick for the GN.

Sandown Gold Cup.
16/19 recorded their best ever RPR that season. The three that didn’t had all recorded their best in previous seasons… at Sandown!

18/19, 11/11 recorded an RPR of 137 or more.

17/19 had a chase strike rate of 40% or more- the two that didn’t had placed at 29f or more and carried 10st on the day.

17/19 won/placed at 25f or more.

14/19 10-10 or less to victory.
Four of the five that carried 10-13 or more had;
RPR 163 plus/ TS 156 plus.
OR 152 TO 165
(Puntal odd one out, RPR 149, TS 126 carried 11-4/OR 142,and curiously is only winner not to win/place at 24f)

11/11 top 3 in C1 chase.

I just followed Performance Factor stats overlaid the factors I thought appropriate and prices at the time and try to work out value for money at the time.

As soon as I got something to input to any race I will pass it on. Hopefully it will be invaluable to someone. For example I said for this race something in form won last time out or placed.

Story of my life. Fancied Party Politics for 92 grand national then went off him and did Romany King instead. In case some of you don’t know Pp won and Rk was second which is why I said never change your mind.

Congrats to all who made a profit today.
Got the 2nd and third so showed a small profit but not good enough.
Neil-you had Buddy earlier on and then went off it.Looking forward to your input for next Saturdays race and thanks for your work.
Backfitting is pointless-I like this site because the vast majority are honest and willing to share their considered views to try and make a few bob.
Buddy failed two of my main trends-not won at least C2 chase or even come close.
Won no more than 3 hcap chases 18/20-Buddy had won six.As Maureen said earlier backing an improving 11YO sounds mad but the Twister has pulled it off and Paddy B rode it with total confidence.
The other 11YO,s to win had graded form .
Thaks to crisp 73,Brian and Pablo for invaluable stats.Any layers out there would have sussed CDG as a big negative.
