Gossiping

Rate this Entry
I've mentioned Gossiping a few times recently. He's entered on Chester Cup Day on Friday.
He won at Goodwood twice last season so certainly can handle a sharp track. Goodwood is a right handed track. Chester is also sharp, but is the opposite direction (left handed). Gossiping's last run wasn't too bad. He was un-fancied in the betting, but it looked like that was a fitness sharpener for something upcoming. Shane Kelly is booked to ride, so he's likely to take his chance.

I'm obviously still adjusting to the flat this season, as its only just really kicked off. There's 30 entries for this race at the moment. I'm hoping a dozen stand their ground so I can get a decent price. Hopefully Gossiping gets a nice low draw in the stalls. I notice Ruth Carr's Explain also holds an entry, but Explain let me down last time. Hopefully he's taken out but you never know; He may run too. I've not given up on that one by any means. They're both well handicapped horses on their best form, but I only want to back one horse in one bloody race!

Good luck to anyone having a bet at Chester this week...
