    I’m on holiday just now, and managed to avoid the Racing this week, but that’s a nice card at Leapordstown tomorrow.

    Masen is some price in that race, I actually think he’ll win, but the one I’ve taken note of for the future is State of Rest, could see me following him over the next couple of years.

    It’s been quite a poor turnout on here this season, I think that I’ll make this my last post on the thread.

    I’ve bet High Definition for The Derby and Guineas, and I like him for The Dewhurst as well.

    Others that I’ve liked include Brazil and Devilwala.

    Not sure the 2yo races have been quite the same yet this year sadly.

    3.00 Tipperary on Monday- Baseman who is very well bred (Kingman out of Big Break) looked very promising going forward.
    Also in that race i thought Swift Flight back in 6th was pretty eye-catching and should win. Not necessarily in the class of Baseman.

    Thinking Of You looked promising when winning at Limerick for Joseph as well.

    I’ve taken a different approach with 2yos in Ireland and have started analysing the 2 days worth of Barrier Trials available to watch back. I think it could be an interesting angle, and i’ll follow that.

    Kris, i have Racingtv, so i watch them on there. I think you can watch them back on Sportinglife as long as you have a skybet acct so i’d try there?

    Hi Folks
    A couple of 2Year old races that the handicappers have sat up and taken a lot of notice.

    Coming from one of the noted races Collinsbay (91 rated) is due an outing today at Chelmsford AW dropping back from the top flight to a Cl5 4k. Obviously, will be a very short order !

    Collinsbay. Started 4/1 ON !. Never looked at ease throughout the race – perhaps not suited to the All Weather surface ?

    ALKUMAIT takes a 22lb hike in winning the Dubai Duty Free 19/9/20.

    Hot from the latest Handicap Updates (Adam Barnes); The race below certainly impressed.
    Each year the best 2 years are rated in the 120s. So the races below show the overall picture is becoming clearer. Its generally thought that the O’brien Thunder Moon is heading the list although not as yet rated by our handicappers.

    Another, this time from the North at Ayr with ratings at the top end of the scale

    Yes Venture, that was some performance by ALKUMAIT & a very good time, according to the handicap ratings that puts him firmly in the top 10 for this season.

    La Borrosa looks a strong candidate today: Good winning performance by an expensive purchase but more so the others through collateral form have disappointed.

    3.00pm Newmarket looks a good 2 Year old contest. The expected rating for the race is 140 however the form to date does not show a rating from any of the 5 matching that figure.There will likely be a class act to come today but I haven’t a clue which one !

    Nothing too impressive; Isabella Giles won well enough but Nazuna only officially rated 87 was close enough in 2nd place.

    Sunday at Chester.
    Um… Tricky this race, Kool Moe Dee best at 5f whilst Selected close and best at 6f.
    So iff the odds allow backing both could be the answer here.
