Another good tipping night but what's this about Major Chase?!

Overall we did well last night with Scenic view at 12/1 taking a second place finish as predicted in the 9:12. Earlier in the evening Billie Jean Queen did well to get a third place finish at 11/1 so all in all it was a fruitful night. However I was astonished to read that Major Chase has been banned from the forums after posting some humourous remarks. As you may or may not know the forums are controlled by a South African company (raceclubs) rather than ourselves. I know that our producers are trying to contact South Africa to get this ban removed as quickly as possible because Major Chase is one of a kind and a friend of Getminted.

Abumassar - 8:12 - 22/1
At these odds how could anyone not back a horse with two wins in his two previous runs? And on top of that Abumassar from the Stacey Racing stable is fourth favourite in a 13 horse race with some of the field totally out of their depth!Superb for the stable so far this 3 year old has won in 5 and been placed in 10 of his 20 races to date earning £300 in total since being bought on the 19th of March this year. Abumassar has also won on firm in the past and seems to pull out the runs regradless of weight. It should be a bridge too far today for the hatrick of wins though with a placed finish very likely.

Stay in bed Emma - 9:48 - 38/1

Wow, what an Easter weekend it would be if this 2 year old fillie could claim her first ever win in the 9:48. In this Novice Juvenille race experience is at a premium. Stay in bed Emma has only been out once before. On the 7th of April she finished third in Australia over 2 miles on firm and showed great promise. That's why I'm backing her to get a placed finish at these big odds.

I am a specialist - 9:55 - 11/1

Is it me or do names seem to get stranger by the week on Getminted!? I am a specialist is a 3 year old grade 1 male from the El Zorro stable with 2 wins and 2 placed finishes from 7 career runs. A natural born sprinter he destroyed a full field of 14 to get his second win on the 22nd of March. That win was significant as it took place over firm, the same going as we will have in the UK this evening. A really hot prospect he represents good solid each way value.
