16-1 DAQMAN WINNER WAS 20.0 ON BETDAQ: Super tipster Daqman – and BETDAQ value – triumphed again yesterday when he tipped Blanc De Chine (WON 16-1 from 20.0) at Wolverhampton, describing the offers as ‘massive.’
15-2 SCORER NAPPED FOR A PLACE: It was part of a day which produced an overall 37 points profit from five successful bets, win and place, including Young Mags (place nap, WON 15-2) and Ahyaknowyerself (WON 3-1).
How to win at two-year-old roulette. Richard Hannon put his chips down on 27% of last year’s field for the nursery at Kempton tonight but – with three runners again but a smaller field – has 37% of the numbers covered this time.
Training and racing juveniles, particularly in handicaps, is a skill the shrewd hands of Team Hannon have excelled in over the years, and they seem sure to be in the frame again in the nursery tonight.
7.40 Kempton Park (BETDAQ Casino Games Nursery): Last year the Hannons got Misdemeanour home at 3-1 but also bagged third and fourth prizemoney through 12-1 and 20-1 shots. Tonight Ronaldinho is, like Misdemeanour, ridden by Richard Hughes and, like Misdemeanour, comes from stall 5.
The difference is that Ronaldinho is a colt, whereas Misdemeanour was a filly, so tonight the seeming Hannon number-one must give 10lb to the race’s top filly, Lizzie Tudor.
And in fact, the Godolphin stables of Mahmood Al Zarooni (Filfil) and Saeed Bin Suroor (I’m Back) have the best strike rates in nurseries at Kempton, 67% and 33% respectively.
Mystical Moment, Rafale and Winged Icarus – two of them with Hannon – have each raced in class 2, now dropped a grade to this quality £9,000 feature race of all previous winners. Filfil, Pompeia, and Ronaldinho have scored at tonight’s course.
Second, third and fourth of Lizzie Tudor’s August win on turf have won since, and I’m Back’s defeat of Masarah at Newmarket has worked out extremely well, with Masarah fourth in the Fillies’ Mile (Group 1).
I warned you that this was a cracking contest, hard to fathom between the three leading contenders. It may be that the handicapper has nailed Ronaldinho, up a total of 15lb, but didn’t get hold of Lizzie Tudor, with that triple confirmation since of the value of her form. There are four prizes in this BETDAQ casino game, so Hannon is sure to get some spin-off.
Whatever happens to Ronaldinho, Richard Hughes may already be off the mark with Dana’s Present (7.10), unlucky not to have completed a hat-trick before this Back Or Lay At betdaq.com Handicap.
In campaigning Bold Ring (9.10) mainly over a mile, that wily old bird, Eric Wheeler- watch for the unique handshake – has engineered a 13lb drop in his rating this year. Back to 7f, will be hard to catch.
Salisbury: The ratings say that No Compromise (3.00) is a good bet in the claimer, with Kieren Fallon – near 50% strike rate for connections – taking the mount.
Fallon has another good ride in Out Do (4.10), trained by Luca Cumani, a man to be feared with a first-timer in a handicap.
