Weekend catchup

A quick catch up on where we have been at over the weekend.

We had one bet on Saturday and one bet on Sunday. A 1 point loss over the weekend.

Saturday's bet was American World 1pt e/w @ 28/1.
This horse has had a win operation and desperately needed his last run.
If the wind operation had worked as required he may well have caused a bit of a surprise.

Basically, it didn't appear to as the horse didn't really show.

A speculative bet but one that may have been worthwhile and not too much damage done overall.

On Sunday we backed Manyriverstocross, 2pt e/w @ 6/1.
This horse has a decent season last year which is more than can be said for Alan King's stable overall. He was unlucky in running a couple of times and was thought to be well handicapped with connections choosing this race instead of the November handicap last week.

He travelled pretty well throughout but ran into a decent one in the shape of Menorah.
Manyriverstocross managed to finish 3rd and get us the place money but was never travelling as well as the winner.

Menorah has to be a decent price at 12/1 for the Champion Hurdle, given how well he was travelling on a track that clearly suits him.

We have a couple lined up for the week ahead and the weather looks to be relatively settled.
