    Just had another funny five minutes
    Was on the mobile with my brother so turned the sound down on the tele
    I only went and mix up the colours of Bint Australia and Raymond
    Raymond won but I had my pound on Bint as he qualifies for good old “Swimbo” thread
    I was telling my brother how well the system is going then the captain comes up 1st Raymond.. :scratch:
    Going to cook some tea, think I must be hungry and not thinking straight
    either that or the painkillers are working too well

    Don’t bother about it Nathan, if you turned over as they were finishing,
    you would have had to hang on for a couple of mins more to see Milianapower
    trundling across the line :wacko:

    Evening all, or perhaps morning I guess. Sorry to hear of everyones woes and hope things pick up soon. Good things come to good people, so I am sure things will improve.

    No prices yet for Meydan but here are my early fancies:

    15.05 Dubai Mirage (ew if a reasonable price)

    15.40 Master Of The Seas

    16.50 Sticking with Star Safari here but would be interested in Bedouins Story if Dubai Mirage runs well in the first race (Dubai Mirage was beaten by a nose by Bedouins Story on 28th January).

    Key is to see which bookmaker goes up first as they tend to overprice some of the horses. I suspect Master Of The Seas will be short based on his potential but am hoping an initial inflated price can be snatched. It was Will Hill last time, so lets see.

    Happy punting all :-)

    Struggled to find much pace in any of the handicaps tomorrow, so not going overboard with these.

    15:05 – Stunning Beauty 9/1

    I was torn between Stunning Beauty & Aydon Castle here, but sided with the shorter price of the duo. She looked like a group filly last season, and with a better trainer she might have been. That run last time was obviously dreadful, but happy to chance her again considering they’re running again so quickly. Must have worked out what was wrong (or maybe I’m reading too much into it). If there was pace on here, I’d have taken the 40/1 about Rastrelli. But there doesn’t appear to be.

    15:40 – No Bet

    Tried to construct a case for Yurman, but can’t really take on Master Of The Seas with just 2 places.

    16:15 – Global Heat 12/1

    I’d certainly have him above Brilliant Light in the betting, whom I expect to suffer stamina limitations. Volcanic Sky should get an easy lead here, unless one of the rags does something. Away He Goes will probably catch the eye, and he’s probably the best horses here, but expect Global Heat will sit a bit closer and that advantage might be pivotal.

    16:50 – Dream Castle 5/1

    Best horse in the race on known form. Have to take a bit of a leap of faith after LTO but yet again there’s no pace here. Would have backed Red Cactus otherwise, who is unexposed on turf and ran a belter here last season. But he’s only 14s with the firms I bet with. Halimi might find this sharp, but expect him to be prominent.

    17:25 – No Bet

    A bit more pace on here, Mutamaasik, Well Of Wisdom (and possibly Tibasti) could go forward here. However, I struggled to take a strong view. Wasim was interesting, but not really at single figures. Zainhom probably the most solid eachway option. I’d have backed Vale Of Kent if still with Johnston, but I’ll pass tomorrow.

    Andre, improving, still resting up as much as I can but off the painkillers now
    seems to be okay through the day but a bit painful first thing in the morning and again late at night
