    Thank you Sam. I did miss it :wacko:
    So intent on studying up todays Lingfield card today at 3.00am this morning lol B-)

    What a strange turn of events but does explain why he lost..hope ROHAAN comes out of this ok but watched the race again, twice, and can see that the jockey did not give his horse any chance turning into the straight when the field were being shaken up he sat doing nothing until the final half furlong before giving Rohaan a few taps.
    Punters well and truly stitched up there .. not a great fan of David Evans (even less so now!) and jockey probably riding to orders but had to pay the price..

    Thanks for that Sam and best of luck today. :good: Jac

    The most concerning aspect is what condition was Rohaan in pre race? The jockey will had riding instructions. I’ve written lengthily on this on the main thread about Rohaan. Yes the jockey left things late,( good run to steal a march by the unbeaten johnston horse.) but the horse was unsound in the final furlong and found to be so by the vets post race. So how the jockey cops a ban I don’t know.
    It will all come out in the wash one day….

    Last race the Bumper at Fakenham
    Harde Fashion has some good form going into this race not least a 9l second to a subsequent listed bumper winner and a closer third when beaten favourite in next race.
    Doesn’t face many of that calibre this time and if handling the testing ground should have a good chance here. General 3/1 shot.
    Ornate runs again today and Martyn Dwyer has another go on him. All the usual suspects line up including Royal Birch this one is at lingfield. A couple of defections makes this one a virtual 3 horse race between watchable ornate and royal birth with the other three not in great form. 1.10

    “Sorry about Amor De Mi Vida’s bad run on Saturday let’s hope my two runners today can kick start 2021”
    Not to worry, I had it covered with a win bet on Obtuse ( ironically a David Evans trained horse).

    Good call there. :good: at Lingfield

    I’ve gone for a combination tricast the first three because Ornate isn’t certain to turn things around with Royal Birth. If it comes in should be about £33 provided they don’t adjust for the small field and the favourites coming in… But this is a sprint and anything can happen!!!
    And anything did happen Verne castle from stall 1 got into the mix

    Unlucky there Sam with your comby..Ornate always runs a different race every time and usually wins when least expected.. Royal Birth impressive though.

    King Of Clubs outclassed there by the Godolphin horse which I thought might happen (very nice). Look for a drop in class next run for KOC :good:

    Happy with my winner and off to see if I can search out another for tomorrow. :good:

    Good luck with your later bets Sam and thanks for your company. :rose: Jac

    I don’t like to keep bringing it up as it is all down to luck but did anyone see the result of the “Swimbo” thread today?.. :rose:

    I was impressed with the Godolphin newcomer Tamborrada at Lingfield today. 3 y/o debut but a nice pedigree who could win a few races in the future

    R.kingscote
    Jockey of Nurse Dee
    Stats since 15/12
    72 rides
    Placed 4th or better in 42 of those rides
    Rides in the last two days the stats are even better.
    Royal Births performance yesterday was exceptional. Went wide around the bend and almost out of contention and regained thread to storm home, a smoother course may well have increased the winning margin by some way.

    With the low draw Nurse Dee is on my list for the tricast. Would be handy to reduce the shortlist to three as with four I tend to reduce the stake to account for the 24 lines, but it worked last night in the last at wolves :good: . I dealt with that by half stakes on both trifecta and tricast to enjoy the best of both worlds and get a ‘mean’ payout. They were both similar dividends in the end.
    A trifecast

    Yes Big G,
    Stats are handy but you can soon drown in them. Your winners are just around the corner.
    Nice call with Bill Baxter I didn’t see it and had set my mind on the fourth placed horse.
    I like those horses with the double ring to the name with the same letter,guess that is why I’m SS.
    Will take a peek today.
