    Thanks Jac :good:

    I’m not going to win anything by playing safe, so my three should be in double figures, hopefully. The are no guarantees though.

    Was going to play the 1.55 Fontwell in my main three selections, but changed it for 4.25 Newmarket at last moment. Hope it’s not a decision I’ll regret :whistle:

    Good luck at headquarters :good: :bye:
