    Had to take a chance on Al Riffa here, especially with 6’s available. Definitely not the most consistent, but good on his day

    Al Riffa 6’s

    I have to agree with your analysis mike,

    Negatives are the trainers supposed bad form here (myth) and that rr is getting on a bit

    Positives are hes racing against muck here bar al riffa and Ghostwriter, but there also coming into this below par

    Hard to see past this fav with these conditions

    Ghostwriters going to struggle at this trip

    Ill cover the stake on al asy e/w

    Last big bet of the week, would rather it wasnt on a fav and would rather it wasnt CA, but i just cant see how he’s beaten in this field so have to take the plunge

    Wont come out winning on the week with rosallion done on the line and falakeyah deciding to have a boxing match with crowley, but this should make the week half entertaining for a small cost, or a disaster (this losing will put me firmly in the red for the season)

    Hoping Rebel Romance can get another win . What a warrior he is .
    Interested to see if Palladium can chip away another few grand off his million quid pricetag .

    Appleby stable form is a worry to me. Normally I’d be backing him strongly in the first two but a wee bit nervous now. I still think he will win this though. ghostwriter, I can see winning a big one if he gets everything in his favour one day.

    Cashed in Rebels Romance. It would be a relief for Appleby and some forum backers if he can do it i and I hope he does but due to how bad Treanmor ran/trainer form he won’t be carrying my money. If Rebel doesn’t win anything can.

    Appleby’s Royal Ascot horses have been a bit disappointing, he’s not in “good form” but I wouldn’t say he’s in poor form either. Two seconds and Notable Speech would’ve been a lot closer with a clearer run through. Appleby’s also just had a one-two at Newmarket.

    The one I’d be against on “trainer form” is Sunway. David Menuisier.

    I’ve backed Rebels Romance, Ghostwriter and – at a very big price – Space Legend. With a saver on the other Haggas horse Al Aasy. Want to be against Al Riffa and Palladium on that ground.
