Not often I bother with the new Flat season until after the Guineas meeting, being a form buff in the main. However, being at a loose end I have had a look at the Brighton card, although I am not impressed with it as a betting medium what with 4 fairly large handicaps a 2yo maiden and a seller.

Brighton
2.10 True Red, Safari Camp
2.40 Fairly Honest, My Flame, The Jailer, Interchoice Star
3.15 El Decency
3.50 Bienheuruex, Generous Lad, Calzaghe, Lady Hesta
4.25 Barodine, Tignello, Encore Belle
4.55 Napoletano, Murrin, Pab Special
5.25 Blue Bok, Green Velvet, Multahab

The TipSt*r (That’s me Formath reborn ) but just the same basis for assessment – overall form, most recent form and short end of the probable market. They do say it’s where the value lies.

Lingfield June 22
2.15 Mrs Boss – danger Guesswork
2.45 Bilberry (9/2 2nd) – dangers Carmenero, I Confess (7/2 won)
3.15 Peak District (9/4 won) – dangers Lochstar, Good Gorsoon
3.45 Seeking The Buck (Evens 2nd) – dangers Cosmea, Shavansky (9/2 won)
4.15 Maria Nunziata – danger Sana Abel
4.45 Daring Racer (9/2 3rd) – dangers Love In The Park (3/1 won), Ruwain
5.15 Where’s Susie (11/4 2nd) – danger Yonder (10/11 won)

[Formath]

Not an inspiring card when the best class race is a class 5 maiden auction stakes . Selections are made on the basis that something has got to win every race .

Brighton June 23
2.30 Flashy Lover
3.00 Lancaster Lad – danger Lady Florence
3.30 Landucci – dangers Caribbean Coral (2/1 won), Rockfield Lodge
4.00 Patavium Prince (9/2 won) – danger Crystallize
4.30 Jafuru – danger Coral Shores
5.00 Gross Prophet – danger Steig (7/2 2nd)
5.30 Berrymead – danger Best One

[Formath]

My better half said I should get a job on the ‘bins’ as I am so good at tipping rubbish, which I thought was rather harsh coming from such a close relative

Listing them slightly different today just putting them up in perceived order of merit IMO so if any of the outsiders shorten significantly they may be the runners to get on. Looking at trainers – Johnston and Fahey stand out.

May not be an ‘easy’ meeting for punters with 2 maidens and 5 large hcaps to contend with, but good going forecast and 2 £19K+ races.

Carlisle June 24
2.00 Reallymissgreeley, Merseyside Star
2.30 Midnight Martini
3.05 Daawetza, Shadowtime, Sunnyside Tom
3.35 Bold Marc, Golden Penny
4.10 Yes Mr President, Joe Jo Star, King Fingal
4.40 Off Chance, Casino Night
5.15 Dig Deep, Steel Cut

[Formath]

This is my last posting ever on TRF and I take my leave having enjoyed most of it along the way, best of luck to everyone

Newcastle June 25
2.30 Paradise Spectre
3.00 Leviathen, Ailsa Carmel
3.30 Ezdeyaad, Charlie Tipple
4.00 Markington, Jackday, Tribe, Simonside
4.30 Keisha Kayleigh, Rose Of Coma
5.00 Lady Jane Digby
5.30 Minturno, Go Alone, Lost In Paris, Lakeman

Goodbye,
Formath
