I thought of The Ormonde but I would have grave reservations about him acting on the track Ian

The Melbourne Cup is usually either run on going as hard as a road or soft as a bog - neither conditions suit Constitution Hill - he will also need to run a couple more times to earn a mark in order to be considered for the race, throw in the stringent vet checks in Australia and I personally (...

I'm not saying he would beat the pair you mention - his Southwell form comes nowhere near that level, the Yorkshire Cup is a realistic target in the Spring - and we should know more after that. His win last week is worth a mark between 100 and 105, should he run well or even go close at York...

Connections have more to lose than to gain if they choose to run him at Cheltenham - God forbid if owt negative happened to him and the reaction and the damage to the sport as a whole it would create. He owes then nothing and has already won a champion and a supreme. A flat campaign is the...

Today's Leicester 4.20 - I'd much sooner be on Just Lucky Sivola EW at 9/2 sporting a TT for the first time, than taking 2/5 or 4/9 about Paul Marvel ..... I think the betting should be closer than that - maybe 4/7 and 3's

3.12 Newcastle - Whisky Dreams , yet to beat a horse home in two starts and hard to fancy if I'm being honest, but bred to be more suited to this 6f trip than the mile that she raced over last time out - and this being her second run back since wind surgery you can hope she would strip fitter. A...

Would you be a Layer or Player at 6/4 Constitutional Hill ?

1. Al Zanati .... ( C ) Dubawi x Divine Image - Owned by Godolphin & Trained by Charlie Appleby Already boasts a smart level of form having won two of his three starts as a juvenile. Took a Newmarket maiden on his debut over seven furlongs, narrowly getting the better of August George by a...

Looking ahead to Saturday - 1.15 Cheltenham I really like the look of Javert Allen off a low weight, a rock solid EW Play at 13/2 with Bet365 offering 4 Places despite only 11 runners, ticks plenty of boxes and will love the soft ground too ...... would be no bigger than 4/1 in my book with...

A pal of mine is fortunate enough to be spending a month in South Africa at the moment, sent a brace to back today at the quality meeting in Kenilworth 2.00 Tenango ( 9/2 ) & 3.20 Master Of Paris ( 4/1 ) ...... have played an EW Double the two.

Just Loose Change interests me a little in the Hunter at Taunton today ( 4.00 ) , not always the best of jumpers - he should at least benefit from a brace of Points at the backend of the year ( UR in one of them ) , has the ability to be competitive but much will depend on how much ability that...

Plenty of entries for Sheriff Hutton on Sunday, but there has to be a big doubt about the meeting getting the all clear,

It was , I hope the horse is ok

Only bet for me today is EW Double 1.05 Haydock Brixson ...... 7/2 1.20 Taunton Knock Off Soxs .... 7/2 Not the biggest of odds but a successful Win Double would pay 19.25/1

As some of you may have noticed over my time on here, I do like searching for value against short priced favs, out of luck yesterday with a 66/1 4th placed - and one bet ( permed EW Treble ) I had last week which I didn't get the chance to list resulted in a couple of big priced placing -...
