The 80/20 Bet: Thursday, Wincanton 15:35

Wincanton is the venue for today's 80/20 bet

Nick is off to the national hunt meeting at Wincanton for today's Win and Place selection where our man fancies a former Irish pointer in the Maiden Hurdle...

Today's 80/20 is Oscar Zulu in the 15.35 at Wincanton. This gelding was pulled-up behind Kilmurvy at Taunton last December. He had a chance four from home, but weakened quickly and his rider wisely called it a day.

I think this former Irish pointer will be better suited by the better ground today, and could go close at a big price. At present he is trading at 14.5n/a on the exchange.
