Feel like I’ve been waiting since before Xmas for this lad to come out again.

Kinondo Kwetu. I’m convinced he’s got tons in hand from this mark. He made 2 or 3 bad mistakes in the summer cup at Uttoxeter then absolutely flew home an should have won. He’d won something like 4 of his previous 5 and was up to 145 from 117 and still gave the look of an improving horse.

He ran no race at all at Cheltenham before Xmas but forget that due to the ground. On nothing worse than good to soft this lad has a cracking chance imo.

25’s at paddy’s.

I have just decided calling a racehorse “lad” should carry a mandatory custodial sentence.

I saw Night Nurse annihilate Midnight Court at this meeting back in the day.

Go for something that likes Good ground and spend some of the winnings on a donor kebab at the kebab house on Printing Office Street.

I once ate four large donor kebabs one lunchtime there St Leger week in the 80s.

It’s remarkable I’m still alive tbh.

Went with Hidden Heroics here.

Only bet him the once before, and he really disappointed me, but he’s one I thought I’d always go back to.

I thought he’d maybe be one for The Bet365 Gold Cup at Sandown, so in the back of my mind this may be a prep for something like that, but at 18’s, I’m willing to take a chance.

Hidden Heroics 18’s

Ian,lad, I’ve emigrated to Derbyshire since my hedonism of living in Doncaster.

I do occasionally venture back up north and I’m somewhat sorry to tell you the kebab house on printing office street is now a Vietnamese nail bar.

Probably a good thing for future health of the next young scamp of a man roaming the streets of Doncaster at lunchtime during leger week! Though not necessarily beneficial to the health of people getting their nails done whilst inhaling lungfuls of formaldehyde!

I think Charlie Uberalles is still unexposed. Close third last time out here at Doncaster, he might improve again.

Charlie Uberalles 8/1

[waroftheroses]

I’ll have two here with Kinondo Kwetu 25-1, and Half Shot at 16-1

[Cork All Star]

Unoriginal but I think Some Scope is a good favourite, even stepping up in grade. Nothing looked to be going right for him in the early stages last time but he still ran out a wide margin winner.

I will be disappointed if he is not up to winning a good race. I hope it is today.

[Refuse To Bend]

Going with Java Point.

Undersupervision 15/2 (BOG)

[He Didnt Like Ground]

Ashtown lad , hoping this a good day for Skelton and while the recent form is awful he has a decent mark now

Pick 3 on Saturday champion 2025/2026

[Eezer]

This is definitely a race where I would like to have a couple in there pitching for me. Both on the nose, Ashtown Lad and Undersupervision

[Refuse To Bend]

Looking at the weather this is going to become a right slog.

The more I know the less I understand.

[Mike007]

well done GM23

[Refuse To Bend]

Well done GM23, two finishers

The more I know the less I understand.
