Wan’t to go skint quick have a bet in the Lincoln. I think I’ve had 2 winners in 40 years Mugs game starts here.
FIST, that would make you about 41 yrs old then!
If it continues to dry I really like the look of Zaahid. Soft ground will do his chances no good though
he’s a decent Spring performer over this trip
Halfway, i can assure you Zaahid will have no problem with Soft ground,
its really fast ground he doesn"t like, thankfully the ground wont be a problem for him, just remember he was Ante-post fav for this a year ago
and missed the cut! He is nicely in this year! If he runs he"s a danger to all!I thought he was a fast ground horse? He hacked up at Ascot in the Victoria Cup when I saw him and that weas good to firm – I’m sure I had him down as a fast ground horse…..
Oh well!
Either way I do rate him at this time in the year
Halfway, i am only trying to re-assure you that if by a miracle it came up
soft at Doncaster, not to be concerned, i hope the ground rides Good for the big race, His victory at Ascot was as you said on pretty fast ground
and he only just ran in the race, connections were very close to withdrawing him! i remember vividly R, Hills saying so, as i had backed him at 16/1 for the race, then when he was confirmed as running there was
one of the biggest gambles of the year on him on the morning of the race,
12/1 10/1 8/1 finally returning the 5/1 joint fav with what had been the ante-post fav Al Khaleej who he beat by a neck! His run prior to this Victory was
an eye catching performance in Newburys Sring cup where Richard actually fell asleep on the horse and woke up when the race was all over!!
He redeemed himself next time though!Is Charm School likely to run?
Prices sustained on the exchanges and he’s not becoming friendless so i’d say so.
Are confirmations of who will be running due tomorrow?

The Fifth Member, Kavachi and Dunn’o are who I am going for, if they are not running then Don’t Panic will be order of the day.

Indeed they are,hth!
I would expect Charm School to run with R,Mullen riding, even though he was apparantly trounced at home by Expresso Star i like the fact Charm
has course experience, interesrting that Zaahid has R, Winston in the saddle, the horse responds to a strong ride! Deliver him late Robert!Zaahid in stall 2, Expresso Star in 9 were the ones I caught.
Full draw should be on the Rp or somewhere

The ground at Doncaster looks like being on the fast side of good at the moment, which is unusual in recent years, and generally leads to most of the field coming up the stands rail, if memory serves?
If so, such as Zaahid and Flipando will surely struggle from their low draws.Did the redevelopment effect the track much. Someone was bleating on about the bias being nullified. Your territory Reet, i am too battered to bother these days.
I heard a stat twice today (once on ATR this morning) that stall 6 has the best strike rate for these kind of races. Dont know why but thats the trend!
Blythe Knight is in there this year
I still fancy Zaahid…..AND…..shock hororr I actually fancy Swop now. Massive U-turn by me if you read my earlier comments

I don’t believe there is any bias on a fair course such as Doncaster, but I’d bet diamonds that the jockeys create one toward the stand side in a fast ground Lincoln?If its gd-Fm then I’d like:
Dream Lodge 40-1,
Royal Power 50-1,
Evas Request 33-1 and
Titan Triumph 20-1at the prices.

I would love to see Blythe Knight win. He has had a no hurdling campaign to try and keep him fresh for this. Big ask but sure to run well again after he got stuck on the wrong side last year.
Usually wouldn’t consider a trial winner but yhere was mega confidence behind Flipando in the trial which he won.. The only times he has won on grass the ground has be good to firm so there is no question marks there.
Fitness will play a big part tomorrow and there is no question he will strip one of the fittest to go to post.
Good EW bet at 12’s me thinks
