The weather is likely to screw everything but let's go anyway....

Newmarket 1.15 - Appleby holds the aces but stable form a worry. It's not a worry for Like A Tiger 5/1 who is a solid C&D winner. Times are maybe not as good as Castle Bay but has had a run and the ground was slower for LaT.

Newmarket 1.50 - Seems obvious to back Native Trail, but let's see how the blues get on in the first race. Imperial Fighter was 3rd in the Irish Guineas @28s and 2nd behind Corbeous over C&D, so going with Imperial Fighter (Top 2) 15/2

Newmarket 2.25 - Shouldvebeenaring 7/2, ran on really well over 6f last time after being caught behind horses and running on the slower part of the track. Top rated

Newmarket 3.00 - Star of Orion 5/1 is handicapped to win and likes the track

Newmarket 4.10 - Soprano 6/4. Money & jockey booking.

Newmarket 4.45 - Infinte Cosmos Evs. Form is strong.

Newmarket 5.20 - Had some coins on Warning Sign 4/1 as backed it last time and was hammered in the market before being a NR. Moore hasn't had a winner in 22 runners at the track which is what puts me off not sticking with this. Azano 28/1ew 4places is potentially massive. Omeara in great nick and on best form Azano is chucked in. I feel is regressive but would have finished much closer last time out if not for couple problems in running.


Goodwood 1.30 - Ethandun 7/4 backed like it can't lose.

Goodwood 2.05 - Time Lock is half a stone clear on ratings but it's very short at Evs given the layoff. Alaroos 9/1ew from Golden Horn very speculative but breeding is strong

Goodwood 3.10 - Spanish Star 7/2. Solid C&D winner, had first run back and had nowhere to go. Probert needs to make sure does not get hemmed in and hits go early enough and SS can take some time to get going. The Lamplighter looks biggest threat. Coins on the 20/1fc TL/SS

Goodwood 4.20 - Lunarscape 8/1 is well handicapped but if Frequent Flyer 16/1ew runs anywhere near some of the Ffos Las form will be walking home to victory

Benoit has 4 decent rides tomorrow but none of the trainers are in form. Would have been a decent ew yankee (did it anyway ;)) Evania 16s, Whendealisdone, 5s, Mudskipper 12s, Candy Shack 9s)

 hmm. low grade flat handicaps merking me yesterday. A few of them missed the break by many many lengths.....

Ascot 1.30 - Repertoire 10/1ew romped this race last year and no reason why can't again this year. Yaanaas is most likely ahead of mark but not yet run of turf so not proven.

Ascot 3.50 - Cold Case 9/2

Ascot 4.25 - Lusail 15/2 ew nearly beat Corby in the St James over C&D. In fact beat My Prospero too

Ascot 5.00 - Fantasy Master 6/1ew


Gowran Park 6.20 - Beginnings 10/1ew

3.10 Notts - Mexicali Rose 6/4 looks well handicapped

4.10 Notts - Golden Lyra 7/4 top rated even with penalty

4.40 Notts - Mutaany 6/5 chucked in on handicap debut



Edited 1pm

Stupid Wolves punts :)

5.40 Wolves - We're Reunited 4/1

6.10 Wolves - Catesby 5/1

7.10 Wolves - Francesi 5/2

Maybe shouldn't leave the jumps behind! Can't believe didn't reverse forecast Kilcruit and Jody Ted. F/c on 365 was 160/1 at the time. Anyhow Juryman drifted to 9/1 and won and Impervious was rock solid.

Saturday's are bad punting days due to kids so only had a VERY quick look

Punches 2.35 - Can't believe Three By Two and Stealthy Tom are back out again at the festival. Hurricane Darwin 9/2 is my pick

Punches 3.10 - Mercurey Lane 7/1ew

Punches 3.50 - Echoes In the Rain 7/2

Punches 4.25 - Ramillies 7/2

Punches 5.00 - Lossiemouth 8/11

Punches 5.30 - Seddon 4/1, Heai 7/1


Haydock 3.45 - Spycatcher 5/1

Haydock 4.20 - Conversationist 5/1


Leicester 3.05 - Al Mubhir Evs

Leicester 3.40 - Maxeno 11/1ew


Sandown 2.15 - Kittys Light 7/2, Coolvalla 9/1

Broomfield and Indie Belle won, returning about £1.5k on singles and the double. Ifwerichman 7s, Douglas Talking, Blast Of Koe 25s, Sir Argus 18s all placed. And as I wrote Klasical and esp Ballyburn won so ended up a very good day due the accas placed.

Sandown is abandoned which is super annoying as has some decent bets on. Punchestown looks like a day to avoid really.

3.40 Punchestown - Artic Weather 5/1ew

4.15 Punchestown - Kilcruit 3/1, JoeyTed 40/1ew

4.50 Punchestown - Impervious 5/6

Right leaving the jumps behind now......


1.40 Doncaster - One Last Hug 20/1ew. Stupid race to be betting in but with the right ride can go close. Amie rides Donny very well and will know not to get too far behind (I hope)

4.00 Doncaster - Westeron 5/2. Chucked in if stays

5.35 Doncaster - Juryman 4/1

 Lame yesterday. Too much hope of IFs.

3.40 - Punchestown - Don't think Figaroc is well handicapped. Broomfield Bijou 10/1 is chucked in on last race and Ifwearichman 7/1 is too based on the Sa Fureur form. That line did let me down yesterday but Buddy One holds up the formline so can't not back it


4.15 Punchestown - Douglas Talking 10/3 was my punt last night. Been backed in like can't lose! If Coer Sublime find some form can go close but I think DT is streaks ahead of mark. Derek is back.


4.50 Punchestown - Blast of Koeman 25/1ew. Another big IF. Not learning my lesson ;)


5.25 Punchestown - Monkfish 11/2 is back. Klassical Dream likely the main danger


6.00 Punchestown - Hmm. Rounded down to 6. Seabank the cliff horse, but convinced is well handicapped. Parmenion, Lets Go Champ, Sir Argus and Haxo all appealed to me. Think I need to ditch the emotional cliff horse.

Parmenion 10/1, Sir Argus 18/1

Will hit a Mullins tricast with Parmy, Argy and Seabank for banter


7.10 Punchestown - Indie Belle 10/1ew


7.45 Punchestown - Last night I blindly jumped on Apples of Bresil 4/1 as was backed in from 25/1 Ballyburn is surely the winner? Can't cash out my bet so stickin with it. Don't bet drunk...

Punchestown 3.40 - La Malmason 11/2ew is surely chucked in. Sa Furuer beat this by not much with a 7lb claimer and next time won a G3. It's a 137 horse and La Malmason running off 122.....

There are so many that look plotted here but be disappointed if didn't get money back off 6 places with La Malmason given looks to have over a stone in hand.


Punchestown 4.15 - Rocco Bay 40/1ew

Punchestown 4.45 - Port Stanley 10/1ew

Punchestown - 5.20 - Gaelic Warrior Evs

Punchestown - 5.55 - Galopin Des Champs 3/10


Punchestown 6.30 - Rath Gaul Boy 12/1ew was beaten pretty easily by A Dream to Share last year but was giving away 18 pounds. Not sure why has been absent for so long but surely has a chance to turn it around off level weights?

Punchestown 7.05 - Egality Mans 14/1ew 4th in this last year after some sketchy jumping but stayed on passed a few. Down 5lbs since. Last 3 races looked poor but all when had cheekpieces on. They are off now, is the handbrake too?

Punchestown 7.45 - Miss Augusta 13/2ew. the form over C&D behind Notions
