    are they(the bookies) just shortening Clever Cookie for the Rule 4(if pulled out) or do you believe its a genuine price wise gamble?

    nice listed fillies event tonight at newcastle 7.15.Fingers crossed the rain stays away

    2.5PTS EW Talmada 11/4 various (1/5 odds) i think the drop back to twn will be a plus,if she can reproduce her Middleton run then backers have every chance of collecting

    GL all

    1 PT EW Balios 6/1 PP liked his comeback run and is worth a few shillings each way

    2.5PTS EW Hootenanny 4/1 (various 1234 1/4) decent course form,has every chance in the first running of this three year old sprint,lots of dangers but with first 4 on offer,i had to have a bet on W.Wards speedster

    2PTS EW Lucida 7/2 (lads 123 1/4 odds) Tough and consistent neigh on a bet to nothing in my book(although Found must be a worry,the way the O’Brien yard is firing them in)

    thats all for tomorrow,good luck

    talk about hit the bar.lo lost 1.7pts

    so PL -1.45Pts

    right onto tomorrow

    Log Out Island 2.5Pts EW (lads 123 11/4 1/4odds) course experience hopefully will help him overcome the very useful stablemate(many peoples banker for the meeting) King Of Rooks

    missed putting up Time test at 3s e/w so wont put it up on this thread

    Pamona at 7s 2PTS EW *PP 1/4 odds) still think she is progressing,maybe hard task beating fav,but the upside on the place part of bet,i feel she is well worth the risk

    Capel Bay looks the answer in a as per tricky looking Britannia 1PT EW 10/1 Skybet (1st six!!)

    in the getting out stakes Scottish maybe worth a small play,the third in newbury maiden has won a handicap off 87.This is tougher put a mark of 91 might be ok 1.5PTS EW 11/1 PP 1st 4 1/4 (odds)

    GL however you play

    won a massive half a point on the day.Make Believe just didn’t act on going(or didn’t like being taken on)
    Solow did what i expected,while Ray Ward got chinned for 4th

    Oh well PL stands at +0.25

    tomorrow

    1.5PTS EW Bossy Guest(9/1 various)only half a length behind fav Ivawood in Gns a five better in he will do for me.
    1.5PTS EW The Grey Gatsby (13/2 various 123 1/4) just think on this quicker going,he should at least fall into the frame.

    Hunt cup have played Munaaser and Ayarr(1pt EW both) 20s and 11s (ayarr 1st 6 PP) (munaaser 1st 5 lads)

    finally in Sandringham 3PTS EW Always Smile 3/1 (1234 1/4 betfair sports)

    right after a couple of poor selections(to say the least)lets try and get some profit

    Ascot

    day one

    Solow 4pts win 13/8 love the horse and think fast pace will suit him here
    Make Believe 2pts ew 7/2 will to take the chance he’ll go on the going at these odds(just hope he dont get a hard time up front)

    Ray Ward 1pt ew 13/2 prob short enough now,but looked in the process of running a big race in this last season.

    i have had a decent bet in the Hardwicke (NRNB 365) 4pts ew Postponed 4/1 (ew 123 1/4)

    good luck hope we all have a decent ascot

    96,is what the bottom weight is rated how times have changed.Wanted Russian Realm to get in,but didn’t make cut so i will throw a few shillings ew at Munaseer @ around 25s.Did like Dettori’s mount but the draw of one has put me off slightly,will watch day one,to see how it pans out

    GL all

    i think it is a harsh to stay a horse dont stay when you are only just ‘touched off’.I believe he stayed,just not as well as Secreto.Was he better at a mile,YES,but imo that does not mean he did not stay

    Hard to judge the ride,if Eddery kicks on over one out,Secreto then comes and does him,alot would be crying out,why did eddery not sit and wait a bit longer?

    Well thats my tuppence worth anyway,i can see both sides of the debate(god i love fence sitting lol)

    poor effort by me on saturday,so hopefully bag a winner today at Newbury

    3pts Win(11/4 various BOG) Encore Lamour,whose run behind Lady Of Dubai will do for me.So with that three point already off my PL i am in the red(lets hope its not for long)

    PL -0.25Pts

    GL whatever you back today.Cant wait for next week

    with so many ifs and buts(double entry’s and ?? about fitness with others)think this race could fall to bits. I have given The Grey Gatsby another chance.Hope the ground is quick and the 6s e/w could prove ok on the day(I know you can get slightly better,but thats with 365 NRNB)

    ok back in the saddle,after big family upheaval,i know you’ve missed me(lol)

    2pts EW Resonant 4/1 (1/4 odds 123)

    The likely fav makes the market,but for me,(although he was beat by Jack Hobbs) how can you back a horse beaten the length of the home straight at sandown,who is then put up four for that effort.
    So for me the inform selection is worth a play.

    In the Coronation i dont see any reason to desert the filly Dolniya who to me rates a 3Pt Win bet at 10/11 (available with a couple of firms)
    The ground is fine for main danger Flintshire,but for me he just dont win enough.I am hoping the selection beats him again as she did in Meydan.
