    ALEXANDER SELECTION
    Lingfield 11.50
    Ajrad
    Win
    In receipt of free energy here has a great chance back down in grade.
    DULCET SPIRIT
    Each way
    First run for new yard for this maiden.
    CALONNE
    May be good enough to defy the penalty but the second top weight has every chance of taking advantage of calonne’s penalty with the draw in his favour too.

    One recommendation I must make if you are following each way selections find a bookie who pays the extra place
    Dulcet spirit runs a blinder to place fourth at 40/1 :good:
    CALONNE did defy the penalty which was bad news for arjad the next two in the weights following home followed by second selection dulcet spirit. So money made.

    1220
    Lingfield

    BERNADINE
    Win
    SKYBLUE EXPERT
    Win
    When you put two up in the same race you need to be right.
    Bernadine is interesting having started off in class 4 versus lezoo.
    A 65k breezeup purchase. Very lightly raced.
    This is a nursery and most are still maidens here skyblue expert has a chance dropping back to successful trip but in truth this race is wide open and these affairs are often dominated by the top weights…

    Each way

    The margins between winning and losing are very fine.
    Bernadine a win selection was second
    A winner selected there where the following horse couldn’t stay.
    Lingfield 1320
    A big outsider
    DREAMING PRINCESS
    Each way @ 20/1 bog
    Won eased down last time and William Buick takes over now.
    A different track a wide draw and a derby entrant from Roger Varian makes the selection an outsider.
    I think he could well run to his form over these newcomers who still need to get experience and I consider him a real value bet.
    I could be wrong of course.

    “Are you on crack mate?”
    At 2147 yesterday someone felt fit to place the above comment on this thread.
    Why I don’t know.
    I am aware you need a skin like a rhino on the internet. It can be no place for shrinking violets.
    I thought it was nothing and took it in my stride. I even answered it politely and in a witty appropriate manner.
    But It has affected my line of thought concentration, everything. I cannot get out of my head the low esteem I am perceived in.
    I know what I have achieved and am confident of what I’ve worked out.
    So I’ll leave it and wish everyone well.

    Sam thank you for your PM. :good:

    Whoever goes round posting things like that on decent peoples Threads should be shown the door immediately and take a lifelong ban with them.
    Hopefully by now Admin has sorted that for you.

    Well done with your brilliant winners it’s all coming together so nicely, you certainly know your horses Sam.

    Happy Christmas and look forward to more to cone..Jac x :rose:

    Hey thank you Triptych.
    No need to worry, I am over it.
    Adverse comment though it was, it is not my problem and if the poster feels they can act like that, that is their problem not mine or anyone else.
    Moved on and if anyone else fancies a pop, go for it.
    Not many can put up tricasts or 33/1 winners on a regular basis.
    So I’m happy with that and will continue when racing resumes…..
    With that in mind I’ve posted two horses on the excellent Meydan 2022 thread where everyone is made welcome.
    Meydan 2.35
    DESERT DESTINATION
    MOUSER

    Both win
    Mouser suprise winner last time at Abu Dhabi with DD following behind. Step up in trip may suit DD who was staying on in fourth and is ridden by Antonio Fresu. Mouser might just follow up.

    Thanks Nathan :good:

    Two races to run at Meydan.
    And an unexpected Alexander selection
    4.55
    TAMBORADA
    Each way
    Debuts for new yard and new connections
    (Sam connections. Would you believe!)
    Has got the ability but not shown it recently but the draw changes suggests this ex charlie Appleby runner has a chance.
    NIGHT OF LUXURY
    Win
    ****************
    Both unplaced
    ***************
    5.30 Meydan.
    JASSAR
    SHIRL’S BEE
    Are from the same yard and the well bred shirl’s Bee is highly rated by the trainer.
    Can only watch here but no suprise to see both of these run well in a race with no form to go on. Shirls bee is expected to go well having reportedly worked very well.
    **************
    SHIRL’S BEE
    Won very well.
    A good debut and did it by a comfortable length.

    Right to exclude the big two and again in the zone with three of the horses. close but no cigar. Great performance by the Nicholls runners.
