1.50 - Tommy G 4/1 ew

Loves this race. Prompting form shown today. SBS booked. Plum draw.

3.35 - Kimifive 12/1 ew, Mermaas 13/2 ew + rfc

Been tracking Kimi for a while and was hoping to see it well drawn in this race. It is and also with a decent claim, but Mermaas is surely a pattern horse in a handicap?

4.10 - Cold Front 11/2 ew

Looks well handicapped.

Bets 30/07/2020 - Glorious Goodwood Day 3

1.10 - Show Me Show Me 10/1 ew, saver on Flippa Stripper 16/1ew and rfc :)

Show Me Show Me ran a blinder behind Liberty Beach over C&D in the Molecolmb last year. Always seems to fluff start and likes to come from behind and given drawn 1 that could be an issue. That said pieces on today and if gets the breaks could come flying home. I think Caspian Queen would beat Electirc Lady and and Spanish Angel in a rerun given was hampered start and was then flying home. Moore has been booked so must fancy it. I just don't know if the formline is strong enough? Then there's Flippa the Stripper. Ran over C&D in the conditions race same day as Show Me Show Me. The races times were similar and also flopped the start and came home strongly.

Show Me Show Me and Flippa The Stripper neck and neck here :)

Show Me Show Me in first time pieces to fly home given the Liberty Beach form was better. Hills says Stripper needs 6f. If he wrong I be angry :)

1.45 - Zabeel Champion 11/2 ew

2.15 - Yazaman 9/4

3.15 - Magic Wand 11/2 ew

3.45 - Mark of the Man 12/1 ew

4.55 - Winter Power 4/5

Bets 29/07/2020 - Glorious Goodwood Day 2

Goodwood 1.10 - Chamade 10/1ew

If every horse ran to form at York then Lake Lucerne is absolutley chucked in here, but I have doubts about a couple of them and York is also a tricky marker.

Chamade's form could not have worked out better and not just with Franconia winning listed race but horse around also doing well in pattern class.

I'm posting this before get a chance to see how Be more form works out so a risk.


Goodwood 1.45 - Rochester House 10/1 ew

Watching the Ascot Stakes back the horse to take out of it was Rochester House who came from way too far back to rapidly close on the leaders. Given it's an MJ nag hopefully can't be too far off.


Goodwood 3.15 - Vatican City 14/1 ew

If you watch the Irish 2k back Siskin and Vatican CIty were both has awful passages. Siskin got out before Vatican but when Vatican got out it picked up very well and I can't believe is 14/1 vs Siskins 9/4. Madness. Or maybe I am. However the real problem is we have the Queen Anne winner, the Summer Mile winner, the UK and Irish 2k winners here and I can't work out which form line is the best. Given Lope Y nearly won the Jean Prat hoping the Irish 2k form is solid and therefore Vatican City is the value.


Goodwood 4.20 - Asdaa 20/1 ew

On my tracker since Jack's Point won at Ascot. Would have won the race at Doncaster if over 7f and last time wouldn't settle and was too far wide. Time to win! Please :)

Bets 28/07/2020 - Glorious Goodwood Day 1

A lot of bad luck occurs at Goodwood. Remember last year about 12 or my 20 picks were hampered/blocked in etc. Fuming :) Let's see if can beat 12 this year :)

1.10 Goodwood - Vividly 9/1 ew

Course winner. Ran in decent handicap last time out when back from a break and Buick wins a lot round here. I'd ignore Oh So Sharp stakes as lost a shoe.

Separatle looks a huge danger at 16s, but trying to stick to 1 ng per race given how much carnage occurs at Goodwood.

1.45 Goodwood - Tinandali 13/2 ew

Cape Cavalli is obviously well handicapped and Crisford has sent out 4 winners from last 4 runners. He is a C&D winner and Look Closely proved at weekend form is decent enough. I have Maydanny down as a winner waiting to happen but I have to avoid runners who've not proven the distance. Instead Tinandali was majorly hampered last time out before flying home.

2.15 Goodwood - Battleground 6/4 & 3.15 Goodwood - Stradivairus 8/13 Double

2.45 Goodwood - Duke of Hazard 6/1 ew

Can Sir Dancelot make it 3 in a row? Hmm. Duke of Hazzard is unbeaten at Goodwood and trainer is very bullish. D'bai may have got closer to winning this last year with a better run but always looks a bit keen to me and Space Blues on form should beat it. Interesting Space Blues skipped Ascot for this race and Safe Voyage looks a threat too. Tough one to call.

3.45 Goodwood - Celsius 3/1

Going to be some serious pace in this race and maybe could be set up for a horse who sits just behind the pace? I really didnt want to back the favourite in this, but given a C&D winner, on the upgrade who will come from behind must have a decent chance. I think I would have gone with Ornate otherwise.

4.55 Goodwood - Tulip Fields 9/2 ew

Course winner who romped it's last handicap over 1m4f.


6.45 Galway  - Colfer Me 40/1 ew

Given was second in Irish Licoln ahead of some of these, price makes no sense. Lost 5 /6 lenghts at start of last race so add that on and again would have finished ahead of many of these. Condon hitting winners and Lee one of the better jockeys aroudn Galway.

Bets 25/07/2020

Ascot 1.50 - How do you handle the Coventry form when a 150/1 shot won it and 2nd place got caked next time out. Probably ignore it? I don't think we often see Hannon winners first time out, and given Dobbs was saying one of the best two year olds in the yard Chindit got to be worth a bet

Chindit 8/1 ew
---

Ascot 2.25 - I'd defo back Shelir if it weren't for the draw here. Instead I'm backing Mutamaasik. I'm convinced would have won the Buckingham if was better drawn and I was really keen on it last time out. Instead the horse I thought it would turn the tables on won, so I know the form stands solid but just can't work out why was a total flop last time out especially as was a C&D winner. I have to assume is nothing wrong with the horse and it's lining up to try and win and if it does then it should go bloody close based on formlines.

Mutamaasik 8/1 ew
---

Ascot 4.10 - Western Duke won this last year off 1lb higher. No reason why couldn;'t reproduce that form to win. Tom Marquand has been booked so hoping Williams fancies it too. I do worry that Look Closely is well handicapped and bounces back but have to trust has trained or assume just doesn't like the track at Newmarket

Western Duke 14/1 ew

Small saver on Look Closely 11/1ew
---


York 3.15 - Solid enough C&D winner last time.

Orbaan 5/1 ew

Ayr 12.05 - Star Citizen 9/4

Walked home in the last race over C&D. Really. Walked home.

Windor 1.00 - Zaamni 11/10

Form is rock solid

Windsor 1.35 - Open Wide 7/1

Form of stable is dire. Everything else is set up. C&D winner. Form with Khadeem, Oxted. Moore booked. Down a few lbs.

2.10 Windsor - Nugget 9/4

Well in back over a mile. Decent enough form

Ayr 3.20 - Le Revuer 11/10

A standard coupon buster :) Ahead of mark, stable in form, trainer solid record at the course and given was hanging all over the shot must assume more improvement to come.

4.10 Windor - Inovled 9/4

Looks well in still and Moore takes the ride.

Ascot 1.30 - Baseem 6/1

Weigthed to reverse witrh Apparate. Dane totally blew his handicap mark at Doncaster but I still think given was not settled last time out and some natural progression from 3 to 4 years old this one can win.

I did look very closely at Island Brave, Platitude and Emenem at bigger prices.

---
Ascot 2.05 - Manaabit 5/1

Won well enough last time out an Haggas farms this race so assuming been targetted at it/


---
Ascot 3.15 - Skardu 15/2

This is the round mile so it will play out differently to the straight mile (I think). Skardu frequently hits the frame in G1s and so this is a step down in class and last time over C&D ran very well.

---
Ascot 3.50 - Stone of Destiny 10/1

C&D winner, knocking at the door.

Update 1.00am.

Well not only can I not pick a winner, I can't even pick a horse that will run in a race! 2 NRs tomorrow so couple more picks:

5.40 Mussleborough - Majestic Stone 7/2

8.05 Bath - Rosie Royale 10/1

3.00 Newmarket - Star of The East 8/1

-----


12.45 Newmarket - East Street Revue 13/2 (NR)

Did well to finish where it did last time out given all the issues. C&D winner for inform trainer.

---

1.50 Newmarket - Fighting Temerriar 8/1

C&D winner. Wins a lot this time of year. Won off 89 before so still hopefully scope to hit those heights again

---

3.35 Newmarket - Global Storm 6/1

Decent handicap form. Assume Buick chose this over other Appleby nag. Wouldnt surprise me to see a 1-2 Appebly combo.

---

4.10 Newmarket 4.10 - Magic Wand 5/1 (NR)

Underrated weapon over 1m. One Master is a 7f specialist and Terebellum yes ran a cracker

Bets 09/07/2020

Bets 08/07/2020

Another sound day yesterday and a few more tickboxes closer to being deleted and added. I'm going wild today with trying new things again so don't get carried away.

12.35 Ripon - Was running in the Lily Agnes as a 2 year old. Got a low mark and could make all from decent draw.

Iva Relfection 15/2

2.10 Ripon - Hmm. A listed winner, beating a 101 rated horse by 3 lengths. C&D winner. Concern is that won'tr get an uncontested lead upfront as that make be the demise today.

Sameem 3/1

2.40 Ripon - Potentially coming back to form with a solid looking CD profile.

Alfred Richardson 9/1

3.40 Ripon - Another who could make all?

Out of Breathe 6/1

5.10 Newbury - All form lines point to the Albany but it's tight and impossible to account for improvement unless you know something. The Cox nag is another clear danger.

Ocean Eyes 4/1

6.10 Newbury - Seriously competitive. Anyone betting in this race is a moron. I am so it's fine. :) So many of these have the creds to win.

First pick is Hlitarian 10/1 followed by Mars Landing 12/1.

6.40 Newbury - I fancied Purgatory in this, until I saw Medieval. I was not happy about how this was ridden on Derby day as really fancied it to place at least. Now a drop in class and should be winning this. Means backing two again. I lasted 2 days only backing 1 in each race. 

Purgartory 10/1
Medieavla 3/1

8.10 Newbury - Majestic Noor 13/8

8.40 Newbury - The Fiddler 7/1

Bets 07/07/2020

Think I've watched more video form in the last 5 days than have in the last year. Looks like it's making a difference but of course could be fluke. I'm statistically due some winners! Still trying tickboxes out so don't blame if if some a very wayward.

Pontefract 12.15 - A couple of serious nags on paper in this. I won't bet (though said that yesterday and still bet on the 25/1 winner!) , Luck on Sunday at 12's may be interesting. Given cost 2m and quoted to have huge potential may well be worth an ew. Noonday Gun also on paper very strong but I like to wait for Hannon runners to have couple runs under belt. The Stoute Nag has most experience and ought to win. Hoping see something have decent out of this race.

Pontefract 12.45 - Zlatan 8/1

Pontefract 1.15 - Reviette 8/1

Pontefracrt 1.50 - Rayong 13/8 finished best of those drawn wrong side in a decent enough 3yr RA HC. Should hold many of these on that formline.

Pontefract 2.20 - Rfc Destropyer/KEswick 50/1

Pontefract 2.50 - Angels Whisper still well in 5/4

Pontefract 3.20 - Audyra 11/2

Pontefract 3.55 - Summergand 5/4 ought to be a penalty kick this with the solid Ascot form

Leicester 5.10 - Clever Candy 11/4. CD winner unlucky last two races

Leicester 7.45 - A Star Above 5/4

Bets 06/07/2020

Could have been a stonker yesterday./ Two very very very very close 2nds. If one would have landed at 9/2 or 13/2 quad would have paid 300/1 or 450/1 respectively. 2250/1 for the 5 five fold. Either way didn't happen, so meh.

Dire racing today. 

12.40 Ayr - Selected 5/2

1.40 Ayr - Historically these are the races I get sucked into and break my big accas. If I can't pick between horses on a shortlist am not going to punt anymore unless a big handicap at a big meeting. Couldnt pick between Musicka, John K and Flying P, so leaving alone. There is the 200/1 tricast though. Ha!

2.45 Ayr - Three Coins looks a crazy price at 25s based on it's novice win. The fact was thrown into a listed race next must mean well thought of. Interesting the other Fahey runner is a NR. Hmm. This goes back to how I've been betting over last couple years again with major merkage. So will leave :(

3.15 Ayr - Comptons Finale 2/1

4.40 Windsor - Caroline Dale 4/5

5.05 Uttoexter - Miss Farage 7/4

7.15 Windsor - Again I'd punt on Mr Wilton at 16s but doesnt tick the boxes anymore. ARGH. Discipline is tough.

8.00 Thirsk - Rosa Gold 7/4

Bets 05/07/2020

Still soul searching to find the former glory days, so some random nags in here you might think....


12.30 Haydock - Magical Journey 7/2. Formline looks decent.

1.00 Haydock - Snazzy Jazzy 7/4 - Form franked few time already

1.30 Haydock - Monsuier Lambrays 11/1 ew on flatter track will help.

2.40 Haydock - Manuel De Vega 7/4 has beaten key players in this race before and a C&D winner.

3.15 Haydock - Deja 13/2 - Decent Ascot form

3,50 Haydock - Greenside - 11/4.  Decent Ascot run and will like the ground.

Interesting day yesterday. Most flopped and I've noted why. I was a bit inconsistent which why I made my picks yesterday and I ignored two nags for reasons that I picked two others. The two I ignored finished 12/1 placed and 10/1 win... Final Attack at 12/1 nearly saved the day, but again another crap day.

1.00 Haydock - Romped last race so still ahead of mark.

Broughtons Gold 2/1

2.20 Chepstow - Romped by 9 lengths and eased down last time out.

Sir Plato 5/4

2,.50 Chepstow - Romped last race, 5lb penalty but 7lb claim so assume can win again

Queen of Silca 7/4

3.20 Chepstow - C&D winner going the right way

Le Musee 7/4

4.50 Hamilton - Romped last time out.

Dawaaween 6/5

6.00 Wolves -

Harbour Vision 4/1

Bets 02/07/2020

2.10 Bath - C&D winner of 67. Won last time out very well. Has won 3 on the trot before at similar time of the year so hopefully is a similar mood.

Awsaaf 11/8


2.40 Bath - Interesting this nag was raced at Royal Ascot and now in a C5 novice stakes. A penalty kick?

Follow Suit 11/2


5.20 Bath - Should have won last time out, but fluffed the start and a Hannon horse had a 'shock' improvement. Due to go up 6lb so technically 6lb ahead of mark. Mitchell and Varian team up with a 57% SR here at Bath and Varian's last three runners have finished 112 so stable in god nick. Varian also boasts a 50% SR with 3yr old handicaps at Bath. Southern Dancer might be the merkage even if looks impossible on paper.

Rock of Fame 4/5


5.30 Wolves - On second run ran to a RPR of 66, when did not get a clear run. All of the horses in front have run well in handicaps of  marks of 70+. Didn't run any kind of race of Donny despite going off as one of the market leaders so happy to draw a line through it. Back over C&D assuming has improved so could be a ahead of mark.

Gossip 3/1


8.30 Wolves - Kingscote could land something at a big price here. If saves ground with low draw, times the run from back to front well enough and gets the breaks could get this nag into the winners enclosure again. It was flying home last time but took a while to get going after coming round the bend.

Final Attack 12/1 ew
