Ayr and Plumpton

The lays have battered us over the past 2 weeks and although this happens sometimes and to be expected it still makes you think am I still doing the right things?   The answer is yes but doubting yourself is not a bad quality as long as you can prove to yourself rather than kid yourself a losing month does not mean a losing year.

On today’s racing.  Plumpton is a happy hunting ground normally for us but with the very tricky ground conditions it may not be worth a serious investment would need very tempting prices to get involved.  The strike rate for the handicap hurdle at Plumpton is 64.29% and there are 2 today so if both have the right prices then may have a go.  Overall strike rate at Plumpton is a very healthy 46.67% but this drops to 33.3 when the ground is soft or softer.  Caution is the word.

Ayr has an overall strike ratio of 38.46% but again drop to 33.3% when ground is soft or softer.  Only the handicap hurdle looks of interest.
