    the draw data horse based on an assessment of the leading horses in last year’s contest. Very lightly raced unexposed and open to any amount of improvement and in double first time hear gear here. Free energy horse too.
    SIXTIES CHIC 
    Still way below first rating mark only used in a maiden. Duly won off much lower on h/c  all weather debut and likely the one to beat here
    Nordic glory
    Down to winning mark and occupies bottom weight course and distance winner and sure to be in the shake up.

    Win
    FLUFFY SOCKS
    Each way
    Trainer has four darts 🎯 here but these two may well be the best of the quartet for a trainer who has won five of the last six runnings..
    Surge capacity  has by far the best of the draw, stall three in a group race. Whitebeam races for juddemonte here and for breeding purposes looks a class horse, but given the pace angle that Chad Brown may be looking to exploit with four runners drawn around the field covering the spread of the field with weights and the draw which may play into the hands of these two if they go off speedily. …

    GERRYMANDER
    Win
    GOOD SAM
    WIN WITHOUT  GERRYMANDER
    these horses are in the same yard and preferrence is for gerrymander who won a match race by 25 lengths.
    the form was not franked by the second horse that day, but the fractions were good and the winner was heavily eased.
    the odds win without are very favourable and this may be a one yard two horse race.

    Nice one Trotter👍 
    I like to read the reasoning behind a selection and we’ve both come up with different reasons behind our rationale to make an even stronger case for Bourbali but 9/2 Trotter!
    Lovely Jubbley !!!
    I was on the allotment shovelling horse poo 💩 in the rain and stopped off to cheer Bourbali home. I don’t think anyone else was about and my loud cheers on a sunny day might have caused bewilderment!!

    Bourbalis
    win
    this is a match race which sees the debut over fences of the high class handicap hurdler First Street for the reknowned trainer Nicky “ it was the vet” Henderson.
    No doubt whatsoever there is a distance between these two of a street as first street was prominent at Cheltenham last year and is certain to be well schooled for this debut.
    There was a lot ( for) me to like about bourbalis’ debut last week where he led the entire race before pulling up due to a slipped saddle. Even if the saddle holds today, he’s nearly twenty pounds wrong at the ratings and would have to put in a high class repeat performance just to make par. Although this could be settled in a matter of strides and first street will only need be pushed out to put distance between his rival here, the lack of cover has to be an issue for the odds on shot and those buying money 💰 may have a few shaky moments or not. You’ve got to love the underdog sometimes,  otherwise what is the point of sport? I’m dangling my carrot 🥕 of eight pounds right under my bookies nose today.

    OVER 1.5 LENGTHS @ 13/8
    in stall 1 and a class three horse on debut for old yard.
    Slud steadily down the weights and a close up second on previous visit to Dunstall park.
    Sure to have come in for latest “quiet run “ on turf and the way David Evans runs his handicappers pertaining to the draw ratings class and jockey bookings this one looks likely to show more improvement tonight in this class despite the money for the “talking” horses. Yard have a very clear modus operandi.

    Aussies through to the last two bats now and they look desperate and the crowd are silent.
    still Aussie are available at evens and I cannot see why hence I recommend 
    Australia at evens
    nine wickets down now and nowhere near a winning target Australia must be backed here

    nonetheless India scoring like a train but no need to worry about the outcome now.

    That’s it for me with Hong Kong until the season settles down. Had plenty of success there in the past but the inconsistency of results means this is the wrong time of year to dip in and out of the meetings.slap my wrists if I do one over there before the end of the month.

    can take this maiden hurdle.
    To all intents and purposes this runner is essentially “unbeaten” having fought out a two horse rallying finish with the very well regarded Jango Baie of Nicky Henderson’s at Ascot. Both horses looked listed class that day and given it was a novice hurdle this represents a drop in class whatever the grade. With an Irish raider rated 119 after going handicapping I’d rate the selection 125 easily and save  for that schooling defeat was an impressive point to point winner and the 200k fee looked well worth it at Ascot.

    Zac Purton is on board for the first time and horse drop in grade. Handicapper may have let this horse “in”, obliged to drop him a pound for the first time off 60 and comes into this level in good condition, having raced off 61 three consecutive times. He is preferred with his experience of two wins in class three to the first time runner Romantic hero. It has to be noted he last scored on November 2nd last year  in this grade and everything points to a big run here off top weight.
