The handicapper gave Bull valley a 91 after winning its maiden and a subsequent maximum 8 pound penalty for winning its next race. Bull Valley was favourite for the graham beck would've been bumped well into the hundreds if he finished in the top 2. We've had this discussion before but Zaki has said that BV is quicker than prospect strike and he's rated a 109. The handicapper hasn't had the chance to rate BV yet and could still be very underrated. I personally never brass an unbeaten horse but its a matter of opinion I guess but I have BV at a MR of 105+ conservatively and thus still well in here at the weights.

And now you have give the game away

Also on a line through Angel Power, I think that Lunar Approach will be too god at these weights - but today's race should show if the handicapper is right or wrong - to be safe I'm including all 3 in the P6

tml as per the computaform bull valley raced off a 94 last time and the hcaper raised him 5 pounds for winning hence the 99..he could have given him the max 6 but he chose not to..iv rowed in with noah and lunar lets hope its good clean race run at a decent pace ..I see maestro mare says noah ran to a 93 last time and runs off an 88 so 5 pounds well in ..

I have made NfG 91 and Lunar Approach 93 - but the 93 depends on whether Angel Power held his form; I have Bull Valley at 99 as well - very interesting race

My apologies you are correct. At the end of the day I still think he's underrated and will make a race of it and will take 5/2 all day every day. Very good race to see where all these horses stand going forward.

Race 4 - Winning Sister - hoping she is half as good as Daring Dave and this will be no race...
Early Double

Do not follow where the path may lead.
Go to where there is no path.....

Trying to work out race 7.No.1 Sapsan last run in a MR84 ran second carrying 58.5kg's.Now running in a MR91 carrying 62kg's.Has Sapsan been given a 7kg penalty for running second?Sounds a bit harsh
