A small loss on Thursday evening thanks to the two non runners in Sharestan’s race, where he just held on after hitting the front too soon. We could have had seven selections on Saturday but that would have meant an outlay of over 15 points so I have decided not to include the following three:…

A decent card at Sandown with the Brigadier Gerard Stakes the highlight and we are playing in three races. This meeting at Sandown is one of my favourites and usually produces a few future winners for the notebook. I hope to be there tomorrow evening unless the weather deteriorates further.

A non runner on Friday (one of 8 non runners in the race) and the massive change in the going at Goodwood cut field sizes down dramatically. Saturday we have a very busy day, but I have kept staking low and one winner should leave us in profit; however I expect more than one! I…

We have a selection at decent odds at Goodwood tomorrow and hopefully at least a place with four up for grabs.

Slightly unusually for us we are in action on a Thursday where we have a selection in one race at Goodwood. There is also the slight possibility that we might have another selection on Friday, which I will release on Thursday evening; however at the moment that is looking like a slim possibility. I hope…

A profitable week so far and hopefully we can continue with some more winners from Newbury and Newmarket tomorrow. Amralah was strangely given the task of making all as he didn’t settle for the first four furlongs and Seal of Approval then didn’t settle in the first three furlongs, but ran well enough to finish…

A good win for Ambivalent today after some poor luck on Wednesday with two places. Navajo Chief then winning for Cleeve at York for the fourth time and that rounded profits up to over twenty points on the day. Only in action in two races on Friday, as the three year old Listed races at…

Another decent day’s racing from York, and we have selections in three races…

An interesting first day of the Dante meeting including the Musidora Stakes for the fillies. The ground should dry out as the week goes on so the original soft is likley to end up good to soft at worst.
