    Just two selections on the thread yesterday and a winning forecasts.
    So they are running at 75% 3/4 and not the 1 in 20 that I’d anticipated!!
    Hopefully here is a little bit more notice of a selection as well
    Lingfield 1210.
    Harry Brown does look rock solid, however in this small field he’ll have to go and do it himself with no cover. The flip side is there could be little or no opposition here.
    A very small tickle on my part goes to
    MATCHING SOCKS
    Win @ 14/1 BOG
    MATCHING SOCKS
    WIN WITHOUT HARRY BROWN @ 5/1

    Under David Probert.
    Very lightly raced and has been asked to run in better company as a two year old and this potentially represents a bit of a drop in class on his three runs so far. Will likely need the run…

    Lingfield 1.16
    French invasion
    To beat fox vision
    Csf

    Fingers crossed
    David Probert remains asleep in his horse!!
    Ryan Moore rides for first time on this runner
    **********************************************
    Give him his due David Probert was on the ball and got his horse to the front.
    Set this up nicely.
    A forecast tiny one at £1.70
    But paid a profit. The SP of the favourite was very small @ 4/11 lucky to come out on top there.

    Triumph hurdle trial
    Leopardstown 1.55
    Lossimouth looks the real deal and while this is much tougher than previous juvenile hurdle he win easily, the result and outcome may well be similar.
    Lossimouth to win by a much reduced advantage.

    LOSSIMOUTH to WIN BY 6.0 LENGTHS or MORE
    5/6
    LINGFIELD
    1.51
    MOUNT MOGAN
    Each way

    Won a class four here this time last year and won a class three the previous summer.
    Could well bounce back here under Luke Morris in this lower grade. Yard know his ability and no suprise to see improvement.

    NASIM

    Win
    In the final race at lingfield. won in good style during the week. Actually won going away in a manner which suggested there would be more in the tank if stepping up in trip.
    Has to face off a penalty and a potential improver here. But they don’t often defy a penalty but looked to have more than a bit in hand.
    First outright winner on the Alexander thread during the week.

    Didn’t quite wipe it’s face but a five pound trifecta all the same.
    3pm

    Figures1-6232-1132
    OZZIE MAN

    Win
    A proper qualifier in receipt of free energy.
    Winning pointer and gets a step up to this trip for the first time.
    ********************************************”
    The absolute opposite happened as often does.
    It goes the other way and the energy is negative rather positive.

    Fontwell

    WHATSDASTORY
    Win
    A real in and out performer.
    Has refused deep into a race and got up to allsorts but still looks about the best of these.
    Went well for a way in much better company latest at Cheltenham and while this is more his level, he looks to have an opportunity to do much better here.
    Mad about Sally on chase debut the danger and pulled up latest over timber when favourite with an explanation that the ground didn’t suit and “would prefer faster” which is a mystery as win has been on soft.
    A placed pointer who is pitching in at about the same level as hurdle mark.
    MAD ABOUT SALLY

    Hit the bar gave the reasons to suspect mad about Sally would go close and WHATSDASTORY couldn’t keep up!!
    7pm
    RUMNOTRED
    Win
    Looks very dangerous on handicap debut finished two lengths behind a potential group horse latest.( Clive cox runner who has won two on the bounce)
    CONSERVATIVE
    Each way
    Makes second run for new yard and runs off career low.
    Both of these drawn alongside the non runner and Rumnotred gets in off bottom weight.

    8.30

    SICARIO
    Win
    ORDER OF ST JOHN
    Win

    Two horses with a Chance.
    Michael Appleby’s only runner is at the bottom of the weights and gets a big pull on the traverse draw.
    Oosj has a half stone pull and is at the opposite end of the spectrum under Mia Nicholls and gets the same pull from the draw.
    Two wins for SICARIO under Jamie Osbourne before moving on to Appleby and they have patiently played with his mark. Won at sligo off sixty five for Mark Michael McNiff. Way below that now if getting the trip.
    ***********************************************
    Round up.
    Very very cheeky win by the Micheal Appleby horse, SICARIO. Very confidently ridden and kept behind the pace and not put up to challenge until the last moment. Nonchalantly sneaked through to grab the rail, so much so that the second horse’s jockey thought he’d won cosily and relaxed marginally at the line. Job was done and this horse actually won with any amount in hand given his handicap mark. He’ll take his rise and be put away until the next time. Huge variance in his winning marks.
    Other Alexander success CONSERVATIVE each way fourth @ 14/1.
    Hit the bar with mad about Sally had him in the forecast and highlighted the scenario around his chances from his last run. A very good winner on chase debut.

    Southwell 4.10
    Roger rarebit won with any amount in hand and is unpenalised for the win which was by a wide margin.
    This is a race with a huge field and anything could come out of the pack to spring a suprise.
    On this fastest ground encountered for a while, could see a decent winning distance.
    ANY RUNNER
    Over 5 LENGTHS @ 13/8
    WINNING DISTANCE

    16.10 Southwell
