Klassy Kauto
Great performance by Kauto Star in the big race on boxing day. He was priced to win, but not with such certainty. In the end Kauto Star completely and utterly destroyed the opposition in spectacular style. Compilers have now upped Kauto’s rating into the 190’s making him one of the greatest chasers the sport has ever seen. It’s been great to watch the progress of this gelding in the time I have been on exchanges. I think it’s a shame that there isn’t more coverage in the media about the achievement.
I didn’t actually do as well as I should have on the race itself as I had too large a position open just as the price surged out. Some odd betting on this race, an odd SP and various other titbits to examine. Such is life, I did very well elsewhere so it wasn’t a problem. It just would have been nice to bag something decent on the big race. The race itself had matched bet volume of £5.5m of which £4.5m was matched on Kauto. £73k of £100k at SP was on Kauto. You would think most would be backing but curiously the SP returned at near to 1.70!!
