Off here later. 2.40 Prince Forever 7/1 var 7.5 pts e.w Just wonder if this one maybe getting his act together, often promised much and listed third last year was a real class run behind tariq but since then has in turth disappointed, however run lto in traditional hot race offers encouragement, arguably too heavy that day to be ideal but still ran creditible fourth showing some ability is there and on old form not out of this, was 106 rated and now 97 and im not sure if he has declined that much. 3.10 Rainbow View 11/4 bet3 bog 15 pts Tricky group contest with so many questions and virtually all open to improvment so impressions count for a lot and this oen made a startling impression lto when winning easily here, form of that race so far hasnt worked out that well, 1 winner further down the field with the second noticeably really disappointing afterwards, however so was its style that day that its the call today for a trainer who presumably would have plotted this out for the lucarno connections. 3.50 Vitznau 9/1 lad 7.5 pts e.w Another one with loads of handicap form in lots of the big races but run lto was very good, may not have been in the frame but its no secret that it was drawn badly that day and indeed did best of low numbers. This time draw could be favourable as I see a few pace optiosn higher which they could well follow and play into this ones hands from a middleish draw to pounce late as is his style. He has no problem with a bit of cut at all and indeed it could be prefereble, a stiff 7f like this probably is bang on ideal and he is weighted to turn run with top weight around from a couple of starts back.

Re: Newmarket (July) 9/8/07 3.40 Ceremonial Jade I had her down as a single figure price but to see she is 16/1 this morning is mental. 2nd in this last year and only 2lbs higher now although she is best on a/w she should have her ground today if rain stays away and will be finishing fast, Last years winner is coming back into form but CJ's form this year entitltes her to be near favouritism imo. 16/1 huge price
