    What is it with people chopping down trees Graham Grrrrr That’s why it’s best to never go back. We’ve just bought a cherry tree 🌳 to plant in our garden next week when it’s delivered.
    It will have beautuful champagne pink blossoms 🌸 and we’re going to have to protect it from the wildlife that visits for a while but we will hope to enjoy it for years to come.

    Well done with Road To Wembley and Rayveka in France Darren you and Nick are right on the ball at the moment. :good:

    I’m saving my bets now until Epsom on Friday/ Saturday as I seem to be disappearing down a black hole 🕳 :wacko: as far as my bets are concerned…but I know the minute you turn your back the winners come back to bite you in the bottom. 💥ouch :wacko:

    See you at the Daylight and Raymo’s Epsom Competition. :bye: Jac x

    If that’s Anno Domini Nick it might be best to wait until nearer the day. Looks like cloudy with light rain Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and then on Friday and Saturday 50% chance of rain between 11.00am and 1.00pm.
    I don’t think it will bother Desert Flower and Ancient Wisdom will love it.

    Desert Flower for me in The Oaks.
    I’m certain she will get the extra distance Her main danger Giselle won’t want it too soft and will she handle Epsom?

    What are your thoughts Nick?

    You know the way I bet Jac :heart: yes it is that horse, thanks for advice went through the breeding and it was a bit hit and miss

    On the Oaks front glad to hear you think she will get the extra four ( tbh i was a bit worried ) I am with you if Giselle settles a bit better even though she won at Lingfield, think she is a major player

    Thanks again Jac for the Anno Domino heads up :good:

    Thank you Nick..only just seen he is a non runner.
    His only run on soft didn’t work out well so hope to see him at Royal Ascot now bar rain..
    Good luck tomorrow, having a study after dinner.

    Cannot believe Ancient Wisdom was 20/1 last night in the 2.40 at Epsom so have snapped that up.. :good:

    Hope Godolphin will have a good day today and win the Oaks with the beautufully talented Desert Flower.. :heart:

    Starting off the day with..

    1.30 – Hallasan – WIN
    2.05 – Maximized – WIN
    2.40 – Ancient Wisdom (nb)

    OAKS..
    Desert Flower- WIN **NAP**

    I have Napped Ancient Wisdom in Raymo’s competition as he is such a big price for a Group horse and have swapped my Godolphin stable in the hope off earning a few points today… Best of luck to all of us..Jac :rose:

    Good Luck in the Epsom Comp today/tomorrow!

    I napped Desert Flower, can’t see her getting beat today as long as she stays the mile and a half. Elwateen is intriguing and wouldn’t be surprised to see her steal a place.

    I didn’t think to make a swap in my Godolphin stable.

    Sorry Raymo, I was at Hospital and so was Marjorie. I should have
    thought about it last night. I’ll have a go for glory with a 1 day
    effort. I’ll be home all day :good:

    Well I know I didn’t declare it, but I had a tenner e/w on
    Julia Augusta at 40/1. I’ll try Nathan’s method to copy it
    as Bet 365 don’t allow you to copy and paste, God knows
    why :unsure:

    Thanks Jac, it’s not like it’s a fortune, but £76 will do me for Derby day.
    I’ll need to remember to enter Nathans Compy for the Daylight Cup and my 1
    day try at Raymo’s Epsom compy too.

    Best of luck :good:

    You’re just giving us a head start Graham! :good: We believe in you.

    Don’t forget all the comps today! Busy day.

    I won’t get to see the racing as we have yet another craft show. Maybe I can catch the Derby on my phone.

    Take Care All

    Thanks Andre, I think I’ve got them all on. There are some
    amount and the worst thing was I thanked Nathan for organising
    the competition. Unfortunately it was the competition organised
    by Mr & Mrs Raymo :wacko: I had to go back on and eat some humble
    pie. I’m keeping my head down now :whistle:

    I think that 40/1 5 places with Bet365 is a pretty reasonable bet for
    Elouise’s Prince. He didn’t do well last time out at York, but he won
    both his races on the all weather with plenty in hand. If he is a bit
    more used to the grass, he could do ok.

    Tricky old day so far but have an EW on Stanhope Gardens at 22/1 in the Derby..also like Nightwalker 40/1 EW but Gosden best is probably Damysus but horses are unpredictable beings. B-)

    Shame Ruling Court taken out but it could have ruined him to run on unsuitable ground..He’ll win at Royal Ascot. :good:

    Good luck in the many comps today and hope the Craft fair goes well Andre. :good: Jac
