    Dundalk 4.02
    SISTER LOLA
    Each way
    Has not won since November 21.
    Dropped to 59 from 78 since then.
    Billy Lee takes the reins for the first time.
    Badly out of form but has been pitched in against some very good opponents…

    Unplaced sister Lola but pleased to finally start this thread in earnest.
    Just a few selections in this vein and not all out and out Alexanders but they will meet one category or the criteria at least.
    Exeter 4.30
    PADDLEYOUROWNCANOE
    each way.
    Transfered between yards.
    Run exclusively in higher grade races for the Skeltons and this easing in grade means top weight and a very tough assignment in these conditions. But they lowest grade race in several runs.

    ************************************
    Late late progress from a long way back to take fifth place nearly but not quite at 28/-25s

    Kempton 8pm
    Sword beach ⛱️
    Each way

    Alan king sends out his only flat runner.
    Provided the other thread with a winner yesterday and this is a proper Alexander selection due to the qualifying elements around the draw.
    Yard in good form and jockey in good order.

    CLOONEY
    off over 500 days and no form to speak of but worth a small each way here

    Chelmsford 5.30

    Hopefully there will be a forecast in the pipeline soon.
    First qualifier of the day.
    NASIM

    Drops in grade and can make light work of things here.
    KADIMA IMPERIAL
    Each way
    Has dropped down to a winning mark and Darragh Keenan renews acquaintances.
    Doubled up with headgear and shares bottom weight for gambling yard.

    The first winner gets home with no trouble.
    NASIM @ 7/4.
    Not the first Alexander winner by any means, but the first one for this new thread started yesterday.

    Bluebells Boy
    Win
    6pm
    Few last time out winners go in again on handicap debut as they face battle hardened horses. This runner lists many good horses in behind him, including today’s winner em Kay jay who he beat, and columbidea and several future winners in his runs. Steps back up to a trip where he’s done his best work and faces two horses one of whom is drawn alongside carrying penalties for their recent wins.
    Every chance here if ready.

    Savannah Smiles

    Excellent chance of reversing positions with the top weight on these terms if nothing else comes out of the newbies

    8.30

    All Aboard
    Win
    Has never won and never placed in his short career and while it takes a stretch of the imagination to think he might even get involved here, he gets a massive turnaround in the weights with Well prepared.
    The turnaround is nearly a stone and Micheal Appleby is adept at getting improvement into his runners.
    Jason Watson takes over tonight for a yard among the winners.

    Only four runners so win only

    ********************************************
    Well prepared still has a lot in hand and while all aboard ran well until the final turn he was well beaten.
    A winner and two forecasts, a step in the right direction.

    Pat Taffe
    Rides
    Largy Hill in the bumper.
    He is definitely not the yard’s leading light in this race with three other highly fancied runners involved.
    Leopardstown 4.40
    LARGY HILL
    Each way. Four places
    I’ve taken 40/1 although he could well go off a much bigger price.
    He’s an Alexander because although he is not expected to do well, he has the form to get into the money wheras a couple of the favourites are not gauranteed to even get this trip.
    He belongs to wealthy owners whose horses despite not always being brilliantly ridden on occasions are making the frame. 8/14 runners running into the frame since 14th January.
