    I’ve added Copper Knight in the 2.30 at York, his
    last win was here on similar ground last year. Hopefully this has
    been the target for a while

    Well done again Jac, that’s a lovely way to finish off the day with a 16/1 winner :yahoo:
    Jojo kept me in the black again today, but not quite the day I was looking for but
    I still enjoyed it.

    Bad luck today Nick, you’ll just need to bag one in the King george VI & Queen Lizzy Stakes
    on Saturday :good:

    That’s me done for the day, I hope my man Jon Rahm can hold on as leader
    and win in the Memorial Tournament tonight. It’s been going really well for
    me, winner and 1st round leader last week, but what about our own Raymo, he’s
    only gone and had a 150/1 winner last week and 125/1 winner yesterday. The man’s
    on fire
     

    Just picked this up Graham and hope your man came good tonight.. :good:
    Wow what a couple of picks from Raymo. I haven’t a clue about golf players but your little group are certainly giving the bookies a bashing.. :yahoo:

    Yes Jon Rahm managed to see it out last night Jac, he had a little wobble midway
    through but got there in the end :good:

    You’re right about or little group, we do well each year. I had Rahm also placed
    in the 1st round betting at 25/1 and last week I had Morikawa who was 1st round
    leader at 50/1 and outright winner at 33s. We do well as a group and as I mentioned
    Raymo had a couple of screamers. It makes up for any bad patch I have with the
    gee gees, although thankfully that’s been going well too for a good while. I must
    admit I’ve been waiting for Paddy Power to give me my marching orders, I’ve been
    giving him a bit of a battering of late. Corals and Ladbrokes got shot of me for
    far less so I take my hat off to Paddy for taking the rough with the smooth :good:

    Pity Godolphin hasn’t come up with a competition yet, I’d love to have a crack at
    another one. Talking of competitions I better get over and do my weekly roundup
    on the Tote compy. I’ll clock in if I fancy one or two midweek, but probably I’ll
    wait until the weekend.

    This thread must have blue ribbon status by now Jac :good:
    Stay safe everyone, we’re not out the woods yet :good:

    Well done with Jon Rahm Graham :yahoo: and wish you well to continue giving Paddy Power something to think about. They aren’t the most generous of bookies when it comes to early prices but they often give up £10 free bets and enhanced prices along with the Specials one of which worked to your advantage the other day.. :good:
    Must admit when I see some of those Specials it makes me think that they know one of the two horses is not going to run it’s race but they sometimes get it wrong and end up paying out big time.

    Don’t think much movement in the TTF this weekend unless anyone has Persian King but next week it looks like 2/3rd of my Stable running in the KG and Queen Elizabeth :wacko: Enable is in my paid Stable Invincible Spirits which is currently 5th on the Market Rasen Forum..

    Good luck to your Stable next week Graham and soon we should be able to have a little change around, will wait to hear when that is.

    Before I go SBS has 3 Godolphin runners in Maidens at Windsor this evening two of which run in the same race but neither should be discounted especially with Hayley Turner on board.

    Windsor

    6.00 .. Arabic Charm
    8.00 .. Arabian Romance & Bright Start

    With those I’m also on ..
    Fairy Dust in 4.00

    Hope I can give Paddy a little bashing today.. :bye: Jac

    Fairy Dust scooted home in the 4.30 (not 4.00 sorry).
    Put on an early bet at midday enhanced from 13/8 to 7/4 by PP
    Can’t believe how short she went off.

    Looks one for the notebook if she progresses from Class 5 next time :good:

    Now hoping the Godolphin boys in blue perform well. :good: Jac

    By the time I got round to the race, basically just before it, she wasn’t a price
    I could consider, but very well done for getting the 13/8 Jac, she won that well :good:

    I’ve had a good look at the other 2. Arabic Charm was 4rth at Haydock but she was drawn
    out wide and had to stay wide and then drop off them to settle into the pack. She made
    eye catching ground from the back and I thought she was going to swallow them up. The
    going was soft and with having to use up a bit from a bad position she tired and lost
    3rd close home. I’m pretty sure she is going to come on a ton for that and I think
    5/1 is too big for her. I’m glad you pointed her out Jac, i think she could be a good
    thing.

    I’ve looked at Arabian Romance too. She was really green, you could see her turning her
    head and watching Almareekh going past her. Both the winner and the one behind her were
    on their 3rd run and knew what the game was about by then. She’ll come on for that and
    must have every chance. I’ve done the double too so here’s hoping :good:

    I wished I’d said before, as it sounds a bit like being wise after the event, that I’d
    love to see Arabic Charm over 7f. She’ll get a mile, but I think that would be her optimum
    distance at this stage in her career. It was a good run, just ran out of gas late on. She’ll
    win a few I’ve no doubt. I’ve put her on my tracker with the Racing Post and added “Would
    do even better over 7f. I won’t miss her when she next appears.

    I wasn’t going to back Arabian Romance on her own, I’d hoped the double would be running,
    but I’ve got her at 15/8 with Paddy again. I hope she’s learned a bit from that first run.
    I’m sure she will have :good:

    I did the double too Graham but have Arabian Romance Win and Bright Start EW in the 8.00 and a reverse forecast.

    Yes you were right Arabic Charm was belting along up to 7 furlongs so hopefully that’s where they’ll aim her next. :good: Good luck in the 8.00pm. :rose: Jac
