    Great racing tomorrow, perhaps to much as I fancy a lot of horses.

    After success last week here goes.

    iiii - 1.55 Ascot - Masamah 14-1 - Last time ran really well against Demora and is weighted to reverse form, also stiffer track should suit. Is a course and distance winner and drawn high which has been needed last two meetings at Ascot. Had every chance and couldn't reverse form with Demora on much improved term so disappointing  
    Saver on speed Hawk nowhere

    iii- 2.55 York - Clever Cookie 8-1 - This horse owes me nothing this year and another course and distance winner. At York course form is very important. Back in trip from his last run which was probably far enough. Hopefully still ahead of handicapper but I would have rather G.Lee was in plate again. Left to far back in short distance race for him. Come back Graham. At least I had saver of Faraaj

    ii- 2.30 Ascot - Tullius- 7-1 -Has to gve three pound to all of his rivals but distance winner and has been highly tried this season so probably deserves mark. NR

    I- 3.30 York- Take Cover 8-1 - Another Cand D winner who ran brilliantly for a long way when beaten at royal ascot by Sole Power. Should be better for that and for these rivals. WINNER at 9-1 One of my favourites, if he was trained by bigger trainer his price wouldn't keep on being so good. He is a good horse

    Also fancy

    1.40 York - Navajo chief 12-1 Not a going day and Bronze Angel franks form of Louis the Pious race
    2.20 York -Nearly Caught 6-1 NR
    4.40 York Great Fighter 7-1 nowhere
    2.05 Newmarket Tanseeb 11-1 NR
    3.15 Newmarket Georgian Bay 20-1 Pricewise followed me again!!!! raced alone which didn't help but not good enough
    3.50 Noozah Canarias 6-1 and again!!!!not good enough
    4.00 chester Boomerang Bob 9-2 didnt get run of race 3rd

    Legend rising 2.05 Newmarket 7-1 hanging then baulked
    aL SAHAN 6-1 2.20 York pick between this and continuum and picked wrong one

    Grandson George here and as his cot is in my study no time to pick properly this week so random picks

    iiii - 3.30 Market Rasen - Grandads Horse 12-1 - Well it had to be didn't it. Thereabouts until going got tough


    iii -3.15 Newbury - Rivellino -16-1 -If running up to the Wokingham Form he is value . didn't run up to anything like Wokingham form

    ii- 3.50 Newbury - tiggy wiggy -5-1-  Both hughes and Hannon think this is a horse running in a race well below his class.
    WINNER and what a price , backed down to 5-2 and now talk of Prix L'abbeye

    I - 2.55 Market rasen - Slim Pickens 7-1- what these ratings will produce 3rd

    Also fancy

    2.05 Newbury Enraptured 5-1 Would have been placed if not eased near finish
    1.50 Newmarket Prince of Johanne 12-1 NR
    2.25 Newm -Anipa 16-1

    This weeks ratings

    iiii - York 2.20 -Dutch Rose 5-1- As I have said before this course needs some knowing and this horse definitely knows it 4 x c & D winner and last twice tried in higher company and wrong distance. Nowhere

    iii- York 3.30 - Zalty 9-1 - Hope this horse likes the track and when this trainer has a good un he comes calling in the UK.Hope this is a good un. Came too late for 3rd Saver on Goldream 2nd

    Next two horses have similar profiles as drawn wrong side on course previous time here and both ran with great credit. 

    ii- 2.40 Ascot - American hope 9-1 - Ran good race in Brittannnia at royal Meeting from bad draw. all over the winner until final strides 2nd

    i-3.15 Ascot -Redvers 20-1 - Been waiting for this horse but problem is fancy two others in race as well so low rating. Belgian Bill and Georgian Bay dangers. All three have ran good races at course but have been unlucky. Of the three hope Redvers who is C and Distance winner and pulled out of a number of races recently is the correct one. Couldn't get through but Johnson gets 33-1 winner for second year running.

    Also fancy

    Taghhooda 10-3 in 3.50 Ascot WINNER at last Sheik Hamdan knows what he is doing.Getting all allowances and 7-2 what a price
    Ansaaab 3.05 Newcastle 2nd
    4.25 Ascot -Karaka Jack 5-1
    1.50 York cosmic Halo 10-1 2nd
    2.55 York Danadana nowhere

    This weeks ratings although hard to narrow down the sprint races.

    iiii - ENRAPTURED -2.20 Newmarket -7-2- Good horse who I fancied on its first run of season. Ran like it needed it and would come on very well. NR Had little bet on Mr Bossy boots nowhere
     
    iii- Kinglami - 2.05 Goodwood 16-1 - Trainer likes this course and can train sprinters, all depend whether drawn 2 helps. Winners in sprints have come down middle or far side so hopeful. Noticed Pricewise has followed me again.Saver on Stepping Out and Confessional None of them gave themselves a chance

    ii- Rainbow Rock -2.40  goodwood -7-2 - slowly away earlier this week and still well handicapped for this over 2f longer. hoping can bounce back from that run. NR Had alittle bet on Double Bluff 10-1 Winner
       

    I- Muthmir - 3.50 goodwood 11-2 - won well last week and also still well handicapped for this early closing race. Trainer has good record and had winner last year. Saver on Boomerang bob NR and Intrinsic won 6-1. Added discussion to follow and Alben Star as well 5th and I am the sprint king! fancied and did most of the first five, only fly in the ointment was the second.

    Also fancy
    2.55 Newm -enlace 2-1 led everywhere but line 2nd
    3.15 Goodwood Sultanita 4-1 Winner 11-2 what a price and she ran all over the place as well
    2.30 Thirsk Indescribable 7-2 last




    and three sillies

    6.10 don -Koala Bear 12-1 3rd
    3.50 goodwood Bear Behaind 33-1 nowhere
    5.35 Goodwood Flying Bear 12-1 2nd

    iiii - 2. 40 Ascot - Dark emerald 6-1- Been running some good races this year and last time out 2nd to Heavy Metal who has run two brilliant races recently in top class fields. also has a master in Olivier Pesslier on board. 4th, lead for most of race had nothing left

    iii- 3.50 Ascot - Highland Acclaim - 9-2 -Last time out beat a good Newmarket field easily over this distanc and %Richatrd Hughes in saddle today. Important to have top jockeys in horses in this comp. WINNER and had it with Goldream in double, BONUS 

    Really fancy top Australian Jockey who has past experience in this country to win Jockeys title at sher gar cup. Craig Williams 5-1 3rd

    ii- 3.20 Redcar -Hakuna Matata - 10-1 - Conor Beasley claims 3lb on this horse and feel it is his time to win. came there to win easily, shame it was the furlong post, went out like a light after nowhere

    I- 2.55 Haydock -True Story 4-1- If the true True Story turns up then he should win this at a good price. Lets hope he settles this time and Keiron can back up the words he has written about this horse. hORSE ALL OVER THE PLACE AND FINISHED 3RD IN A SEVEN HORSE RACE aRRGHHHHHH

    12.55 Ascot -Goldream 7-2 WINNER

    For the second time thanks to sky kicking you out at weird times!!!!

    iiii - Normal Equilibrium 9-1 -4.50 Doncaster - Been running well all season and not getting much luck. good 3rd last time , lets hope he gets lucky today. looks like he finished 5th so no luck again.

    iii- Willing Foe- 6-1- 2.40 Newbury -Good horse but doesn't run very much. Good when fresh and advantage then and this trainer won race last season. 2nd looked like he had won after out battling Red Cadeaux but Seismos came strong at end.

    ii- Enderby Spirit -11-1 -2.20 Newm- Greys only race and Brian smart , who can train a sprinter, looks to have got this horse right at the right time. Good second last time. NR doing Baby Strange now 2nd

    I- Out Do- 10-1 -3.30 ripon - David O'meara knows how to win this race and Tudhope doesn't choose wrong often. Looks to have a good draw and good turn around in weights with Pipers Note. Form 5th behind Muthmir time before has worked out well with Goldream and Rene Mathis both winning since. Would be top rated if I wasn't worried re Supplicant 18-1, saver. WINNER AFTER BEING TERRIBLY BOXED IN AND WON VERY EASILY ONCE OUT.

    Also fancy
    2.55 Newm -Flying Bear 9-1 and Double Up 9-1 no chance after Piazon caused so much trouble 
    Newbury 3.15 Kinglami 10-1 nowhere
    Ripon 2.50 Compton Park and Englishman 12-1 nowhere either of them
    also late one 3.50 Newbury Breton rock 7-2
    WINNER 7-2
    4.15 Doncaster Storm King 20-1 ew  and Morache Music
    14-1 WINNER

    I was more worried it hadn't won at 7f but actually today it suited it down to the ground
  • edited August 2014
    Here we go, lets hope I come back from my weekend away with some nice winners.

    iiii- Redvers 25-1 -2.55 goodwood- This horse has been unlucky all this year with trouble in running or bad draws. Has had multiple entries and withdrawn from all so hoping they think very well handicapped and waiting for race to win. 25-1 seems very overpriced especially as top of Racing Post Ratings. Lets hope he gets lucky today 

    iii- Intrinsic 4-1 Newmarket 3.55 Hughes reckoned this was a group horse in a handicap last time and he rode it with supreme confidence. If he is right he needs to win this listed race. Sprint king Cowell should have placed him well.

    ii- Gifted Girl 12-1 -Windsor 6.45 - This horse was the unluckiest loser at Salisbury as I highlighted earlier this week and she was very talented last year. Top class race but reckon she has found her form again and will go very close.

    I- Llanarmon Lad 8-1 -York 5.00 -Lost on the line last week to improver and with Moore on today hope he can get compensation.

    Also fancy

    3.30 Goodwood -Belgian Bill 12-1
    5.50 Goodwood Tall ship 11-4

    3.20 Newmarket -Highland Castle 8-1
    3.15 York Baitha Ailga 5-2
    3.50 York Clever Cookie 9-1 and small saver on whiplash willie 25-1

    Hi mate

    Salisbury run more down to jockey making bad decisions than the horse and then race on Saturday a bit out of its depth. Take your point though
