Racing December Daily Punt - Jingle All The Way

Hard to know how much is hype and how much is actual ability but wouldn’t say $1.95 is too short for an unraced filly. The good ones destroy them regardless and the good ones start that short at 2 because everyone knows how good they are.

A mate of mine reckoned backing odds on 2yos before the turn of the year blind without any form was actually borderline profitable. So looks like this good thing has qualified by 2 days :D

returns a loss but hard to say it's categorically a bad bet on SP alone. i'd rather take the $5 to win the MM because if it justifies $1.65 it should also be winning that.

i've already been done twice this year by opposing whispers on 2yo's, were horrendously short on trial form both first up 1100m and walk in.

2yo races in general have such a difference between the best horses and worst the good ones find it hard to lose even with luck/other things against them. in general the average punter won't know if the talk is correct so really provide terrible betting races IMO.

Not the first Mcevoy horse to be spruiked. Last one he was keen on was Overexposure. Decent horse but..
Hope they have a win but won’t be getting any of my money

This was old timer punting Guru Don Scott

Pointed out that 2yos under even money had a sensational strike rate.

Yes Yes Yes next valley fits the bill
