Title: I've backed a couple at Sandown on Monday
Post by: Karabiner on December 24, 2005, 04:06:31 PM
I managed to snaffle some 9/2 early doors about Hoo La Baloo in the Wayward Lad novice's chase.

It really impressed me with it's jumping last time out and if it doesn't get too fizzy
I'm expecting an improved performance on more suitable faster ground.

The other one that I have backed is Kicking King who I reckon
should be able to beat the rest of the King George field pulling a cart if back to form.

I'm on at 13/8 and expect that price to shorten by the off.

Good luck !

Kicking King is a great horse and should win it fairly comfy.  Kingscliff could be a threat however - its not a bad nag either.

Im on the King though, 2.64 at BF, wonder if he will win the Gold Cup again.

A word of caution about Hoo La Baloo in the 1.05pm race at Sandown today.

The favourite Racing Demon is now a non-runner and Hoo La Baloo is now a 4/5 shot.

I would NEVER recommend betting odds on in novice chases, although I expect him to win.

As I was on originally @ 9/2, I've ended up with 7/4 after the deduction but still traded out for a freeroll.

Good luck !

Well that one won well ... it was the only one left standing LOL

Fences look tough though, Kicking king is prone to the occassional mistake, these fences could punish him

Sandown's fences have always been considered a stiff test.

Kicking King's jumping is usually superb, apart from an uncharacteristic blunder at the last in this race last year.

The only thing I'm worried about is his fitness. If he's fit he wins IMO.

Feathard Lady was certainly impressive today, but may not have beaten much in terms of genuine Champion Hurdle contenders.

I wouldn't be rushing out to take 8/1 myself at this stage although that price does seem a fair one.

The Champion Hurdle this year seems at present to be very open IMO with at least a half a dozen horses with valid claims.

Good luck !
