25nov15 nice day
29 bets and 9 winners 4 of them were the very easy 4-9 winner, Maurice Edgington, Vince Paige, Stuart Bentham, & Barry Pemble, Joanne Hutson got off the mark with a 3-1 winner Dave Barker had best of the day 4-1 went 2 from 2 and went 3rd so a good day for him. The other winners were Helen Fahey who also got off the mark with a 7-4 winner, Mark Sharman 100-30 and Tom McGarrity 11-8 to move one spot above dad!
The Plate Racecard!
So lets have a little speculate about the runners and riders in the plate:
Vince Paige (11-10f) the 9 time winner has said he is going for it again this time started poorly, but can anyone really stop him getting his 10th win.
Justin Sercombe (7-4) two times in a row winner surely will try and defend especially now he has moved to 2nd in the all time winner list on 5 wins (above Ian Carpenter), Vince didn't really play last comp but he beat him fair and square in the spring, yet to start in this one.
Barry Pemble (11-4) 3 time winner, pretty much always does well in this back after a summer break! so must be a strong runner 2 for 2 so far so started well.
Maurice Edgington (12-1), never won it and finished on the bubble 3 times in a row - I'm not a definite runner yet, not decided, I had a better comp last time not messing about with the plate missed cash by one place after being overtaken on the last day!
Chris Pascoe & Kevin Roberts, (both 14-1) both cashed last time and strong players in the main comp good each way bets here but with a full field and only 5 spots paying will there be space
Terry Matthews (20-1) has cashed this year but tailed off in 17th place in the last comp will he be trying?
Martin Long, (20-1) one time contender but pretty much leaves it alone now (last won it in April 08 #19), depends on whether he has the incentive of a side bet with Vince if he plays so may refuse to start!
Pete Long (33-1) - 5th in the summer comp must have been a fluke, - surely that was a career best run :-)
66-1 bar - surely the winner has to come from those above, Gary Dighton has won it twice and plays again this time but never featured under the modern scoring system.
Kevin Dighton currently trading at 1000-1 on the exchanges often goes over the first in the lead and then we never see him again, but been running under rules for ages and "every dog has his day"
One to watch - Tom McGarrity first time runner this comp, knows his stuff, just depends on whether he has managed to side step enough of the genes on the sire's side!

Barry Pemble (11-4) 3 time winner, pretty much always does well in this back after a summer break! so must be a strong runner 2 for 2 so far so started well.
Stuart Bentham (4-1) clearly going for it in these early stages given he is 4 from 4 with a best price 8-11, but can he keep up the pace? Has only won the plate once in December 2011 (#29).
Ian Carpenter (6-1) 4 time winner but nothing since #23 in august 2009, definite possible!
Kevin Wood, (15-2) strong contender last time but only ever won it once in December 2009Maurice Edgington (12-1), never won it and finished on the bubble 3 times in a row - I'm not a definite runner yet, not decided, I had a better comp last time not messing about with the plate missed cash by one place after being overtaken on the last day!

24nov15 new best price
7 winners today from a still low entry total of only 19 other than the outstanding 12-1 winner for Richard Pascoe the best price was only 5-2 so no fanfare for those six winners who were Tom McGarrity in his first ever bet, Tommy Smith, Ian Carpenter, and bringing up a 2 from 2 double were both Natasha Tizzano and Mark Quinn and going one better was Stuart Bentham with 3 from 3 still all less than evens but a winner's a winner :-)
