Boodles Juvenile Handicap *Trends Amendment*

Boodles Juvenile Handicap Trends Amendment

Published: Mon, 03/09/20

Evening everyone

Just a quick trends amendment from me from the earlier email regarding the Boodles Juvenile Handicap.

Eagle-eyed NTF reader Karen pointed out that the DSLR stat (stat 3) should actually have been DSLR 53 or less NOT DSLR 37 or less.

Fat fingers from me there I'm afraid 🙈

On checking my database copy (I have at least two copies of the trends I use, one on Excel and at least one via the Databases I use, I like to have plenty back-ups!) I did indeed have the DSLR 53 trend plugged in there, so I would have picked this up tonight anyway, but thanks to Karen I can fix this with you guys now 😎

Trends should read...

1 15/15 yet to run at track (0/67 those that had run at track)

2 15/15 didn't run in a maiden race LTO

3 14/15 DSLR 53 or less

4 14/15 top 2 finish 1 of last 3 starts

5 14/15 ran in a Non-Handicap Hurdle LTO

6 14/15 were rated OR 134 or less (1/66 rated OR 135+)

7 14/15 didn't wear a Tongue-Tie

8 13/15 no more than 3 hurdle starts

FRASER ISLAND, is still a qualifier on that angle, nothing changes there.

It does, however, bring the following two also into the equation...

TRONADOR (G ELLIOTT)

THYME WHITE (P NICHOLLS)

Scorched Earth (D Skelton) also qualifies but he is currently second reserve so not guaranteed a run.

Those four horses ALL pass the trends I've outlined for the race (the 'proper' trends! my brain must be fried already...and it's only Monday!!!).

As I said in the original email, I prefer to have more than one on my side in a race of this nature so one or both of TRONADOR & THYME WHITE will form my attack plan for the race, along with original trend horse FRASER ISLAND.

Once again, VERY BEST OF LUCK if getting involved in this contest 😁🤞
