Hi everyone, at the time of posting today’s selections have not run yet. We are also going to be looking at a couple of races for Sunday so we will give a review of how today’s runners performed, tomorrow night. We have a relatively busy day tomorrow with plenty of quality races to get our…

Hi everyone, we looked at the Read Silvestre De Sousa At 188Bet Handicap at Carlisle today and Silvestre De Sousa had a decent ride on Twin Appeal to finish 3rd in his namesake race – no quarter given then by the other Jockeys!

Hi everyone, as we predicted the ground turned Good to Soft, Soft in places at Carlisle today. We did well to swerve the Fillies listed race with the Irish raider KJ Condon’s Elusive Beauty winning a little cheekily from our top rated Bletchly.

Hi everyone, Day two at the Royal Ascot meeting kicked off in fine style for us with Qemah doing the business in the Duke of Cambridge stakes. I thought Gregory Benoist rode a great race as he held him up out the back and made sure he always had a clear run (as opposed to…

Horse: Carlton Frankie (3-y-o Bay Filly) Trainer: Mick Easterby Notes: This one caught the eye on Saturday at York when she blasted out of the gates and led the field for a good 3.5 furlongs. I had noted pre-race how the race seemed packed full of pace, so I was surprised to see her in…

Hi everyone, Day one of Royal Ascot has drawn too a close and we saw some absolutely fantastic racing… We kicked off with American Patriot in the Queen Anne stakes, who ran well enough but was always mid division and was never going to trouble the judge fading at the 2 furlong marker. As we…
