5.00 Newbury : Ellerslie Tom (14/1) A very interesting race this, looks competative but if you take them one by one there isnt that many that are in form or well handicapped. Ellerslie Tom is top weight and has a respectable look to his form on firm ground, hasnt run while the rain has been about but returns here with the trainer in good nick aswell so sure to be fit, may still want it firmer is the only worry. Apart from Glinton who is rated up to the hilt we have to do go down to number 8 on the card to find the next horse that hasnt been either off for ages, pulled up last time or has been chasing lately and no hurdle form. Of the bottom six in the race a further 2 pulled up last time, 1 been chasing and another has been off for over a year. To sum it up we have only 4 in the field that have current form so i reckon its worth taking a chance on Ellerslie Tom with far the best form in the race and at 14/1 its worth risking the ground is sound enough.

15.15 - Black Hills Win 8, Place 2.96 LTO here was behind PetitJean by just 2 lengths but better off in the weights today. Been in good form and ground should suit today. Great price.
