    Only 1 betting race for me N, as didn’t get a chance to have a look earlier.

    In the last I’ll have a try with Keep In Line & Quarterback, and might as well do the reverse forecast as well.

    leave the darkside of hedgehoppers VTC,you can go racing in the warm in the summer(and i dont mean summer jumping).I have actually agreed to go to cheltenham open meeting with my son this year,for the two days.Dreading the cold,but he had to sign up for the four days of the Ebor meeting,along with our usual jaunt up north,for the three days of the dante.

    lol, could never do that, but love the flat as well………..well from Royal Ascot onwards anyway haha. I still maintain though that the biggest race of the summer is The Galway Plate :whistle:

    Was at York for the October meeting, but it was carnage for me, but still my favourite track, been a few times.

    I’m sure you’ll love Cheltenham, just as much as I like my regular visits to Hamilton :good:

    afternoon desert rats,anything on anyone’s radar for tomorrow.Think its quite tough after a quick look.

    Mick Channon’s Divine catches the eye (3.35) is on the same mark as when second behind very impressive Ertijaal.The step up to six should suit and the booking of Soumillion is eye catching.Still no sign of any betting as yet for tomorrow’s fayre.

    Will go through the rest later and any early thoughts from others would be a great help.

    ** WORD OF WARNING** Ertijaal runs on the 4,45 please note this is not the same Ertijaal who beat Divine,sorry if it seems a bit silly to post this,but just in case someone was in a rush and believed it was

    I’m a big fan of Big Baz :rose: who runs in the Group 2 Turf 4.45 tomorrow.
    He caught my eye in the paddock at Newmarket last time he ran there beating Mitchum Swagger. He is a big brute of a horse and I discounted him because of his price 33/1 :wacko: Hoping to recope a little tomorrow he seems to be taking to the Meydan track…Jac :good:

    good luck jac.I did like the 7/2 3/1 Flash Fire each way last night(with a 1/4 odds thought it was a very good bet to neigh on nothing) but sat and waited and thought may get better in morning.Price now gone (wont aftertime/lie that i got that price) so no bet now.

    I’m going to have a couple of quid on Earnshaw in the Gp 2 at 12-1 – some decent runs to it’s name, hopefully needed the run last time?
