Cleeve members selections – Saturday 27th February
Hi everyone, just one selection to report on in Frankie Ballou who was disappointing to say the least but the race did turn into a bit of a farce with all the fences down the back straight being missed out due to low sun. Therefore the race was run at far too quick a pace…

Hi everyone, we had 3 selections yesterday and to say frustration was in the air last night would be an understatement. We had another very close big priced second (that makes it 8 so far this month) in Turanga Leela. She made all and looked booked for the winner’s enclosure with less than 50 yards…

Good morning everyone, we put up just the one selection for yesterday in Avithos who was declared a non-runner. Connections gave the going as the reason for the withdrawal. Seems we just can’t catch a break this month with several non-runners and 7 seconds. We know things will go our way we just have to…

Good morning everyone, we had two selections on Sunday and here are my thoughts. Milkwood and Thyme White came from off the pace to have every chance at the final hurdle, Thyme White looked to be going very well and I thought a place was the least he would achieve, Milkwood was running on and…
Read MoreEye catcher alert- a runner at Carlisle on Monday
Hi, Friday’s eye catcher was very disappointing after looking like playing a part in the finish before three fences out. The eye catchers have not gone well so far this season but there are still two plus months to go to turn things around. We start with a handicap chase at Carlisle. We expect the…

Good morning everyone, we had 3 selections on Saturday and it was a tough day to take,…first up was Lethal Lunch who was held up for a late run but unlike last time out he got no run at all here having to snatch up on the heels of the leaders and by the time…

Good morning everyone, our selection yesterday Renardeau looked plenty keen enough early on but jockey Richard Kingscote did settle him down just off the pace. I thought he looked to be going well enough just before the home turn and I was hopeful of the win but he soon looked one-paced and finished nearly 2…

Good morning everyone, we had just one selection on Thursday. Enzo D’Airy never looked to be travelling very well at all and jumped poorly and now has everything to prove before being of any interest again. Sod’s law said Indigo Times who was going to be my first maximum bet won. I could not advise…
Read MoreEyecatcher Alert – We have a runner at Kelso on Friday.
Hello, after a lengthy break due to the weather and ground conditions we are back in business with a fancied eye catcher of ours who we expect to win on Friday north of the border. It is in a handicap chase and we think that the eye catcher is unexposed and can take advantage of…

Good morning everyone, we had 2 selections yesterday and here are my thoughts. Hollywoodien disputed the lead before being headed 4 out was ridden along and soon beaten. I do not think he was tried too hard once his chance was gone. Streamline missed the break slightly and was held up. He did run on…
