DAQMAN SOBER AS A JUDGE
đ„HOT SPOTS UPDATEđ„ Some of the many pundits who said Sober, a 2m 4f novice hurdle winner, and 2m 5f+ scorer on the Flat, could be opposed over 2m in a Grade 2 at Punchestown yesterday, have now turned that on its head.
After his easy Moscow Flyer strike yesterday, they are naming that quality mould of classic speed and stamina as reasons why he can win Grade 1 and Group 1 at Cheltenham, Royal, Ascot, Flemington et al as the superstar of 2026.
Daqman backed this Willie Mullins wonder (9-4 in a field of three!) and, free of any after-timing slur, now nominates Sober for his Hot Spots horses to follow.
WHY ROSE COULD BE READY
â 1.00 Hereford Last time Heva Rose had wind surgery and a long holiday, the grey mare won two out of three including here at Hereford in a class 2. This is class 5.
Itâs been a modest season for her trainer, Venetia Williams, who has now had to take Djelo out of Cheltenham calculations. But life goes on behind the scenes.
Itâs just a 10-mile trip from the yard to Hereford racecourse but 339 days of hard work and worry to heave the Rose back on to a track which is the focal point for the neighbours, so every raceday is competitive.
Here are the âlocalsâ: Evan Williams, Tim Vaughan and Christian Williams (all Glamorgan) with Lynsey Larue, Maryâs Fortune and Illogical Logic; Ryan Potter with Ithaka; and Mel Rowley with Just In A Bit and Martalmixâjac.
Betdaq Betting Exchange 17.5 Heva Rose (4.9 three places) this morning
MOONSHINE AGAINST MAIDENS
â 6.00 Wolverhampton The Andrew Balding bread-and-butter brigade at Kingsclere have these form figures from their last six days on the AW tracks: 13001311.
And Jason Watsonâs last four Balding rides have finished 1011, the first of those three winners, All Moonshine at Southwell 15 days ago.
They are together again here, the only distance winner in this Wolver race; in fact, the only winner in the field against seven maidens.
CARIBBEAN THE MAIN CHANCE
â 6.30 Wolverhampton Saffie Osborne has an interesting booking here for Heather Main, a trainer short on recognition which makes her a regular pal for the discerning punter.
Would you believe that Heather is just a winner or two short of making a million in prizemoney over the last five seasons, in all that time showing 40-plus points profit on all runners to a single-unit stake.
She placed the one-time Aidan OâBrien inmate, The Caribbean, to get within a neck of victory in a class 5 here in October, before winning with him here last month, quality jockey Cieran Fallon again engaged.
The opposition today looks poor: Bear Rock, Arnaz and Nacho Nacho Nacho are winners only of their maiden; Mart is a sprinter and Bella Bisbee is from an out-of-sorts stable that has had three finish stone last with its last four starters.
MENTAL OFFERS PIMENTEL..
â 7.00 Wolverhampton I reckon Marcus Tregoning deserves a âhappy new yearâ in the winnerâs enclosure after 2026 started for him with near misses, by a head (with Foothold) and then a neck (with Alta Rica).
Daqman was on 12.0 BETDAQ offer Alta Rica and I fancy we can invest the each-way return on stablemate Pimentel, who has started at massive odds up to 200-1, except for a day at Brighton in September, when she was well backed to win a nursery.
Until you look at her damâs track record (0-10), youâd think Pimentel was a good thing to follow: sire Pinatubo (six wins in a row), and grandaddy an Arc winner. Surely worth a pound in class 6 at 42.0 on BETDAQ this morning.
