Yes although that begs the question as to why Master of the World firmed from 7.8 to 6.4 then to 9.0...SamuelBeckett wrote: ↑Fri Aug 04, 2017 3:46 pmWas it because Ryan Moore won the first three races and bookies need to trade their position for some reason?
Goodwood 2017
Yes, they will have huge liabilities rolling over etc so will be cutting the price as much as possible on his next runners - though the 3rd should of also shortened and if not certainly not driftedSamuelBeckett wrote: ↑Fri Aug 04, 2017 3:46 pmWas it because Ryan Moore won the first three races and bookies need to trade their position for some reason?

I have a very good tip in the 1.50 Goodwood. Will release the info after I find somewhere who will take my bet.
Been aimed at the race for a long time.

Make sure you release it BEFORE it has won
I for one could not comprehend the move on Washington DC. O'Brien is always to be feared in such races but one weakness he has is when he reaches for the blinkers first-time on a generally exposed animal(has ran at least 7 times). From 43 attempts , he has only had 2 win (1 at 1-5 on) (just under 5% SR) since 2008. The usual Tongue-Tie this one wears(Breathing Issues) on near Heavy(but changing) ground was a double negative for me too, especially trying to overcome an extreme early pace set-up involving Take Cover, Kachy, Priceless and the eventual winner Battash. Washington DC really had a mountain to climb yesterday.
The Time (normalised for Ground Conditions) was serious Group 1 Standard and Battash could end up going for The Everest in Australia. It was a massive performance from him in that ground. The fact Washington DC finished where he did is testament to his consistency and versatility and also too Moore and O'Brien. The formbook says a "never involved" fifth of 11th 6l back but the Massive obstacles this one faced makes him, for me the one to take out of the race.
If you need the exact time the data was collected I measure that as well. I switch from one race to another as the day progresses so that varies quite a bit. I joined this market 10 minutes out as there was a nice gap between races yesterday.
