Cleeve member selections – Glorious Goodwood day 5
Hi everyone, Well another below par day although we could class ourselves a little unlucky. The Corsican was far from Jim Crowley’s finest hour and although we got paid out on Munaseer finishing 5th and hope you did to. Cotai Glory ran a pretty decent race and would have probably finished in the places if…

Hi everyone, Well after yesterdays disappointments we recouped nearly all those loses today with Big Orange gutsily taking a pulsating Goodwood Cup, Marchese Marconi getting the 5th place for an decent EW payout and Showstoppa only getting beat into third by a neck and a head by typically one of the other Johhston horses!! So back in the…

Hi there, Well here we did some serious wedge today, and I’m sure many of you did too… and are thinking unrepeatable things about us…. But this game is all about keeping your cool and taking the long view. The first two days have been disappointing to say the least but we have a further…

A better result today with Mr Win taking advantage of the drop in class to win having been backed into 5/1 Fav so we hope you took the 8/1 available last night. Fintry’s race was a muddling affair for a Group 1 being run at a crawl and then a virtual sprint finish. James Doyle…

Hi everyone, Well today was a big disappointment with some very strange results at Newmarket and none of our selections running up to scratch… particularly the mulish Bossy Guest who has never shown anything like that before. Hopefully onwards and upwards, but we have a tricky day’s racing for the second day of the meeting and we…
