Selections

Hi everyone, as the excitement builds for Cheltenham’s top-class week of action the flip side is that the quality of racing has been really poor for the last couple of weeks. This has been exacerbated as the weather has taken its toll yet again with Sandown being abandoned due to a waterlogged course. Given that…

Hi everyone, the weather took its toll again yesterday with Newbury being abandoned. This left us with just two selections as one of our selections Chidswell was also a non-runner at Doncaster. To add insult to injury Nuts Wells’s race cut up to just 7 runners leaving us with just 2 places and yes we…

Hi everyone, the weather continues to be very unkind again this week to some parts of the country.

There is just the one Class 2 race at Doncaster tomorrow but its a Veterans handicap. We love these races for the older horses but they are not a betting proposition as…

Hi everyone. we have had a very quiet week so far as Sandown was abandoned today and there are precautionary inspections at Ascot and Haydock tomorrow both at 8 am. Ascot has also said they will be having further inspections throughout the morning due to the high winds and rain forecast from storm Dennis. Personally…

Hi everyone, the weather has not been kind so far this week and there is an inspection at Sandown at 9 am tomorrow morning. If storm Dennis brings the weather they are forecasting it will be surprising if the meeting goes ahead. We have looked at the only qualifying race on the card and have…
