One more bet for today away from Ascot. I keep reading good gallops reports about Light and Dark and if he can reproduce those gallops on the track he’ll take all the beating.
£50ew Light and Dark – 5-1 – Newmarket 4.00 placed

Thanks Joni it was a much welcome holiday for us
Back to Ascot…Pinatubo looked a bit special today didn’t he and fantastic to see Blue Point pull off the double I had a big smile on my face for the rest of the day after that and with Defoe and Cape Byron coming home I bet you did too .
great to see it all coming together for you now JacThings turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...– £1,998.99
Glad to hear it Jac. Yes a good day to finish and Pinatubo was definitely the pick. A great week but very hard to make a profit until yesterday so I’m glad to finish ahead. My other two highlights would definitely be Japan and Watch Me who look all class. Mirage Dancer ran a cracker but should have been committed earlier in the straight as we all know that these Frankel’s need to be allowed to gallop. They don’t have a turn of foot. He’ll win a nice race sooner or later.
All in all we are still way down on the year but at least things are moving in the right direction. We’ll keep on trying!

KING POWER
Runs in the Italian Oaks today Joni
4.30 San Siro
Best of luck to her.Hard to keep up with all these Frankels’ ruling the world.
Things turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...Following Frankels blindly is a sure way to have a losing season.
Hope it turns around for you Joni!
Thanks guys. Try not to follow then blindly Jimmy but probably know more about them than any other type of horse. Missed a few this week unfortunately.
A couple for today. Limato loves Newmarket and should be good enough to beat these on ground he’ll like. Red Gallileo has the 5lb penalty taken off by Thomas Greatrix and should go close as should the redoubtable Kings Advice.
£100 win Limato – 5-2 – Newmarket 3.15 winner
£25ew Red Galileo – 14-1 – Newcastle 3.35 lost
£25ew King’s Advice – 10-1 – Newcastle 3.35 lost
£25 win doubles"this perfect mix of poetry and destruction, this glory of rhythm, power and majesty: the undisputed champion of the world!!!"
It looks like a corner was turned at Royal Ascot Joni. I’m sure they won’t be the last.
I hope you have a winner with Kings Advice, as he is my chief fancy.
-£1,873.99
Thanks Buckers. He ran really well from that draw and had a huge amount of ground to make up. He’ll win next time. Good win for Limato though.
Interestingly I did a bit of research and If you had backed every Frankel offspring this season since March 30th a £1 win stake would have you a balance right now of exactly £0.00!
It’s the Iris Derby and you have to have a bet in the Irish Derby don’t you? I think The Curragh will suit Broome better as long as they go a decent clip which I think they will.
£50 win Broome – 11-4 – Irish Derby 5.20 The Curragh lost
"this perfect mix of poetry and destruction, this glory of rhythm, power and majesty: the undisputed champion of the world!!!"
What a farce of an Irish Derby. There must be some red faces in Ireland this morning!
A few bets in France for today.
£100 win Mehdaayah – Evens – Saint Cloud 3.25 winner
£50 win Lah Ti Dar – 3-1 – Saint Cloud 4.00 lost
£50 win Headman – 5-2 – Saint Cloud 4.35 winner"this perfect mix of poetry and destruction, this glory of rhythm, power and majesty: the undisputed champion of the world!!!"
-£1,748.99
Another good day with 2 winners and great to see Mehdaayah win so well. She is a Group 1 winner in the waiting. Same to be said for Headman who was super impressive.
One bet for today. I did some work for Hambleton Racing last week and I know they think that Spiorad has been fairly treated for his easy win last month. He’ll do for me.
£75ew Spiorad – 3-1 – Pontefract 4.30

What a fantastic weekend Joni…Well done
LIMATO was amazing at Newmarket on Saturday, so glad I was there to see him and got some nice pictures of him in the winners enclosure.
They are talking about naming a 7f race after him in the near future at Newmarket as he loves it there so much. I can’t see him turning out for the July Cup (6f) but the Lennox at Goodwood was mentioned by Henry Candy and a race in Ireland possibly. He was as cool as a cucumber when most were boiling over and his win was never in doubt even when challenged by Glorious Journey.Summer Romance was a stand out filly in the paddock and on the track, she looked quite lean but very fit and she blew them all away, a serous player for the rest of season and the next.
Fantastic news for the Frankel girls also this weekend, I was on Mehdaayah in France.
I backed Coronet at Saint Cloud, it was lovely to see her win a Group 1 race at last, and I backed Jalmoud against Headman and regretted it when I saw the Kingman colt coming with a wet sail in the last furlong…I’ll let you go and count your cash
JacThings turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...How things trip not seen you in my thread for a bit hope is all is well with you
And VTC moved 2yo summary thread to trends and notebooks to
Well done Joni as well mate i had good weekend to with Limato,Buckhurst and Who Dares wins
Hi Darren…Apologies for not having visited your Thread so often. I have been away for 2 weeks, back a week now and just getting back into the swing of things..as I said earlier Summer Romance, Pinatubo and Al Dabaran all eyecatchers but so far nothing under the radar, hoping to find something in next two weeks or so and will definitely report back…Jac
Things turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...Hi guys. Sorry – been away for a couple of days. Glad you had a lovely day Jac and well done Darren! Summer Romance looks a very nice sort and I was also really taken by Siskin who looks a superstar.
The money came for Soirad but unfortunately the gaps didn’t! Still no harm down with the early ew bet.
Looking forward to the weekend and the return of the mighty Enable. But I have one bet today. Rambaldi won cosily last time and has only put up 2lbs. Apparently he’s been working well and I think he’ll go close.
£25ew Rambaldi – 7-1 – Newbury 9.00 placed
