    I had two bets last night, both Ballydoyle inmates which got beat.

    One bet tonight, £18.75 win (all poxy WH would allow) at 16-1 Roaring Lion for the Classic. Lousy draw after my bet was placed, I’ll be cheering him, but if he does not get out rapidly, it’s all over. Speed killed last night, makes me fear for him a touch here from box 2.

    Shamrock Rose gets up in the first big race on the card…guess who? One of the Ortiz Bro’s of course. Marleys Freedom was 6 wide and cost her the race completely, got smashed at the start too so did well to even get back to where she finished.

    As per Nathan’s Breeders Cup compy, I had Chalon in the 1st, backed at 20s (e/w)
    and I couldn’t see him getting beat with 100 yrds to go…..done a head :wacko:
    At least I’m consistent, I had World Of Trouble in the 2nd….done another
    head, maybe a neck. :wacko:
    Firenze Fire in the next at 7s, hoping for a better outcome.

    I’ve had a bet on Magic wand in the filly & mare turf. Done it on the US tote, I figured she may drift a bit with the US horses running so well. Does anyone know if Magic Wand is getting Lasix? APB normally likes to give it in previous years.

    Roy H and Imperial Hint renewing rivalries from last year, IH has improved this season but the each way has to be Limousine Liberal, she’s 6/8 wins at the track!

    Analyze It in the Mile has just been backed by me at 14/1. He won 5.5l last time he encountered yielding ground. Euros all look a bit dodgy for me, Expert Eye would have been my bet on fast ground.

    Roy H devastating, Limousine Liberal disappointing was off the bridle before the turn. Happy with the winner though, and the jockey Paco Lopez too.

    I’ve seen a few saying he “hit a wall” as he was trying two turns and the extra 1/16 for the first time but I don’t buy it, it just looked like complete non-trying. Given how he was cruising and there wasn’t even an attempt to push him on around the turn smacks of something dodgy. As I said, the Ortiz brothers do this a lot usually allowing the other to win, its so blatant when you can see them not even draw the whip or push the reigns.

    Midnight Bisou should go well for you later, did well the challenge Monomoy Girl last time who was rightly thrown out, Abel Tasman is the big one for me though and Wow Cat is interesting each way :good:

    I have done the forecast Midnight and Abel Tasman Kez. Great minds and all that LOL

    Next race I am on Happily with Oscar Performance forecast.

    I think a lot of the Europeans apart from happily will struggle on the ground.

    Analyze It could run well at a decent price.

    Expert Eye and One Master of the Euro’s and Next Shares and Analyze It are the two I like at a price.

    Darn it, thought Analyze It had that a furlong out. I honestly did not think Expert Eye would like that ground. Great ride by Frankie.
