Nick Shiambouros' Patented 80/20 Bet

80/20 / Nick Shiambouros / 03 February 2008 / Leave a Comment

80/20 weekend moves to Fontwell...

Today's 80/20 is Simba Sun in the 1.40 at Fontwell.

After a couple of solid efforts, notably last time out when a good second to heavy favourite Mamlook, this gelding looks set for his "grow up" race.

His astute trainer has a few engagements for this gelding but has selected this race. With this in mind we should have a solid chance of landing the 80/20 at a fair price.

Today's 80/20 is Strong Coffee in the 4.05 at Doncaster.

This race is all about stamina and this Classic Cliche gelding has plenty of it along with some solid form in the book - notably when running second to Premier De Marais in early January.

The third that day Honour High has since gone on to hack up at Fontwell.

David Knox is a small breeder but he does well with these types and the dam throws resilient stayers and the choice looks like joining the family so we should have a super chance of landing the 80/20 at a good price.
