Showem Silver (win only)Still alive. Just needed a break. Got back into the swing of things yesterday and had a particularly good day. Could not post though as I kept entering the wrong log-in details.
A departure from my norm today as there’s no suitable big field/prize h/caps.
I’ll have a little dabble on a couple of small field h/caps instead.
A win on each & an e/w double.Winc 2.20 San Satiro
Strat 3.35 AltiepixTen days before my 10th birthaday, the 1951 GN was run. I had just asked my Dad for my weekly pocket money. (1s/6d I think)
He said I’d have to wait until after the race as he was listening to it on the radio. He had backed Nickle Coin. I may have cried if it had lost. As it happens I got 3 shillings that week. :)3.00

5th yeasterday. Perhaps I should not go lower than Class 4.
Two @ wolver today.2.55 Lacan
4.30 Red TurtleOnly one suitable race for me today.
It’s the Kelso 3.10.
The RP cites form from ’13 in support of their selection Brae On.
I’m citing form from ’14 in support of mine. Ran up a hat-trick then.
Has all the gear on today, bottom weight and a 5 lb allowance.
Has an awful habit of pulling up lately though. :)
Still, a definite squeak IMO.
NotonebuttwoA race too many. I normally just do two of these a day.
BP was 3rd @ 5/1. Paid 2.25 for the place. The other two were unplaced.HDO was 4th @ 14/1. The place paid 4.2. So, Back on track again.
No idea when the next bet will be.Yes! Still alive. just waiting for the right races. Last race was a loser for me.
Love these sort of races. Usually thrilling to watch and all decent prices. Today it is…War 3.35
Doctor Harper (2 win)
Hoblon Des Obeaux (3 win, 4 place)BSP as usual.
RDB was a n/r and Azure Fly was 3rd @ 16/1. :(
Now..onto a race to relish. It has prob been a target for many in the field. I too have had my scope on it.San 3.00
Aerial (2 win)
Rocky Creek (3 win, 4 place)
My idea of dangers are Dynaste (obvious), Saint Are (not so obvious)Whichever horse wins it is sure to get a tumultuous reception and bring back memories of whenever YOU backed it when winning. :)
Doctor Harper was was 2nd @ 14/1. Beaten a short head. Could be the start of one of those dreaded LLR’s. They are to be expected of course.
I don’t normally place bets so long before the race but, tonight I was unable to settle down to sleep…….so.
This race I’m on is only a Class 3 but the pot is pretty good. Worth having a flutter I think.Plum 2.50
Azure Fly (2 win)
Rigadin De Beauchene (3 win, 4 place)
