7:15 Wolverhampton INTREPIDLY 11/1 General
Been off track since March but can go close in this if ready. Drops in Grade for new yard.
-
3:40 Catterick HEE HAW 4/1 Bet365
Scored at Haydock in August and ran better next time at ponty latest getting boxed in on the rail 1F out. Should run another good race here.
6:00 Leicester LAMB CHOP 9/1 PP
Won a Seller last time out here and can remain competitive back in Handicap Company. In good form and this is low class
-
3:15 Newmarket I CAN FLY 12/1 Bet365 PP
Best performance last time and was considered a classic type at start of Season. Looks to be now getting his act together and could be one for breeders cup.
-
5:10 Catterick FALSE ID 12/1 PP
Ran better than placings last time when only 2L adrift . 3rd Start for new Trainer today and better expected on this better ground. Won over this trip at Wolverhampton in July
-
5:30 Chester FAITHFUL MOUNT 7/1 Ladbrokes
On the drift this morning but runs his best races here, Ran really well here last time and only gone up 1lb and drops in Grade.
-
4:50 Perth YOUNEVERCALL 14/1 PP
Not run since April 17 at the Punchestown Festival. Ran well that day and if fit and ready to go, He should have the measure of these. 2/3 over Hurdles.
5:00 Redcar CASTERBRIDGE 14/1 Bet365
Everything in place for a good run last time at Chester and did not run to form. Reported of losing a shoe but had 3 Month off. This Track should suit as he ran a cracker time before at Thirsk. On a good mark for this and if ready to go, he could be bang there.

2:00 Hamilton Avenue of Stars 9/4 General
5lb Penalty for last time win (wasn't stopping late on), In good form though and likes this soft ground. Slight drop in Grade here and must Run well in a visor 2/3 . even if i cant back a winner for toffee at present.
-
Can Can Sixty two 3:05 Hamilton 4/1 PP WH
Won last time by 11l and in a better race than this. Trainer sends her a long way for this and loves this ground.
-
5:20 Catterick NAPLES BAY 4/1General
wide draw but been in good form over the Summer. Stable still in good form and won on soft as a juvenile
-
6:45 Chelmsford MONUMENTAL MAN 13/2 PP WH
Seeking hat-trick and stable in good form. Runs off same mark as last time
-
5:45 Galway SECRET WIZARD 8/1 General
Ran a better race last time than what he's done this season. Won 3 times last year and his turn maybe about to come. Drops in Weight and Grade today.
-
2:35 Curragh BEAUTIFUL MORNING 8/1 PP
Small chance taken here with Improvement needed to probably beat eziyra. Ran second in this last year and won last time like she had improved this year. More value than the Fav and a good run looks likely.
4:15 Curragh ANTHONY VAN DYCK 6/4 PP WH
Another tasty race with 2 top performers for the future (Quorto) Chance taken here on Aidan O'Brien horse. Quorto not encountered this ground so i got to go with Anthony.

I agree, looks like you’ve found one there! There are a couple of others waiting for soft but yours must be in with a very good chance!
2 others I noted last night were 2.05 Project Bluebook and 4.30 Penworthman
3rd. He only got going to late. Door closed a few times on him but i dont think it would have made a lot of difference for win purposes
-
5:05 Chester AL DESTOOR 4/1 PP
Dropping in Weight and soft ground Needed to bring out the best. Good chance Today to get his head back in front.
-
2:45 Bev TAKE COVER 3/1 Bet365 WH
Still useful and took this last year and been running ok without winning at higher level this year.
5 min later
2:50 Curragh DYNABEE 16/1 PP
Lot to like about latest run behind Snowy Winter last time. This yard gets improvement with every run and now yard also coming to form,
-
3:40 York WEEKENDER 14/1 General
Been better this year and ran really well here last time in the Grand Cup (listed) over C/D losing by a Neck to Marmelo who lowered course record by 1.08 secs. Marmelo went on to gain victory in a France group 2 race, Weekender drops in Class but has plenty of weight, today, but this son of Frankel must overcome this if he's to take his entry up in the Irish St Ledger.
This is a win bet for me
-
out of form at minute and testing times to keep going.
Kempton 8:15 MORNING AS BROKEN 5/1 Bet365 Coral Ladbrokes
Had a 6 month break before resuming racing on soft ground at Newmarket last time. Unsuited probably by the ground that day she returns here as a previous C/D Winner.. Could have more to offer
York 3:35 ROARING LION 3/1 Coral Ladbrokes WH
Loves it here and still has the potential to improve further. Career best last time in the Eclipse, and reported to have been working well
-
6:40 Sligo ASHJAN 4/1 General
In good form and has a 4lb penalty to overcome. A drop in grade and has a good chance of following up
-
6:05 Notts SOOTABILITY 13/8 General
Won in good style at a big price at Thirsk first time up. Looks to have more improvement to come and has a good chance
-
3:25 Windsor RESTLESS ROSE 5/2 General
Been running well this season, and ran as well as expected last time in a higher class event. Should run as well here off only a 1lb hike and must surely go close.
-
3:10 Musselburgh MARKHAN 15/8 General
Been running well in Ireland last twice and come here looking well handicapped.
7:40 Newmarket RED STARLIGHT 5/2 Bet365 PP
C/D Winner and stepping back up to a Mile from last run will suit. Still has Improvement.
-
8:05 Leopardstown STELLA MASS 11/4 Bet365
Not so good last year and won this race in 2016. Ran as good as ever last time behind yucatan and now better off and should relish this step up to 1M 4F.
-
6:20 Notts EPONINA 13/8 General
won here 2 week ago and is in good form. Flat track and fast surface suits best and could take some beating.

Not been on for a while due to work. Logging in and reading the News about Billyhills (Graham) is such a shock, always helpful and easy to talk to when you had a question of anything. So sorry for the loss of such a Gentlemen for his family and his colleagues working on a Punters Lounge.
