Horse Racing Tips: The Actuary Pace and Going figures highlighted three good potential opportunities yesterday. The first two won well but the third of the three was a real disappointment.
There was little surprise in seeing Country Road rule here but I am not sure I would have wanted to take the 5-4 SP given the form figures of Overrule and Beat The Ref being unknown quantities on this surface.
Land Hawk retrospectively looked a snip at 6-1 and plenty of 8-1 was available earlier. Not so much due to the strength of his figures but more the weakness of the oppositions.
And finally for the biggest disappointment of the day. Having helped myself to plenty of 13-2, the 7-2 just before the off looked like there had been some serious money placed. It certainly wasn't apparent when watching the race but the time record was the second slowest on the card beaten only by the Class 5 2yo Maiden that kicked the meeting off.
