Silver Cat to get the cream in America!

Well firstly well done to Bondage babe, Dawn’s colt Scorpion King did well last night to finish third and earned a place at the long odds of 26/1. I tipped it for a place and its the latest in a long list of outsiders to finish in the places recently. However can ‘Silver Cat’ join that list at the crazy odds of 44/1! The cat hasn’t a great win the run ratio but place wise has done very well. Out of 44 runs to date Silver Cat has won 5 and been placed 19 times. Usually runs on shorter distances so will have to give it 100% this evening. The only worry is that the Cat ran yesterday in Canada finishing 2nd on fast. Even with the tiredness I think Silver Cat has to be considered for a placed finish at those odds!

Disappointment…Never. Always look on the bright side of life!

Well after 130 runs owners Diablo racing can’t say they’ve been disappointed with ‘Disappointment’! So far it has claimed victory on 24 trips and been placed a massive 58 times which is nearly a 50% place to run ratio. Last win was on the 23rd of this month in Hong Kong on yielding going and a win tonight would bring the horse to the quarter of a century mark in winners. Always a contender Disappointment should fare well in this smallish field and at 9/2 deserves to be touted as a good each way punt in the 9:36 race.

Have to back Arin Laud again!

Well last week Arin Laud finished in the places after I backed it at 58/1 so in respect I have to back this horse once again. Odds today of 17/2 arent quite as generous but still tempting. Usually runs over the muddy, yielding and soft but trying out the fast here in America this evening. Hasn’t run in three days so hopefully energy and fitness levels will be high. Well used to this distance also. Last win for Arin Laud was in a strong field of nine when the likes of shalapour, victory quest and Grand Falcon were left behind. I’d be suprised with a win tonight but another placed finish coming up!
